Rivals became the latest recruiting service to release updated and expanded recruit rankings for the class of 2017 following the summer grassroots season. Eric Bossi now has a Top 150 for the class of 2017 and there are a number of recruits that Providence is chasing inside that Top 150.

Scout.com has expanded their class of 2017 rankings from a Top 75 to a Top 100. ESPN released their Top 60 for the class of 2017 but Scout’s Top 100 means there are more slots for Providence recruits to slide into. One of the biggest risers in the rankings was by Makai Ashton-Langford.

ESPN and Scout.com released their updated recruit rankings for the class of 2016 after the summer grassroots season and now it’s time for Rivals to follow suit. ESPN and Scout had differing views on most of the Providence recruits within their Top 100’s. Rivals’ rankings mirror those of ESPN with Wenyen Gabriel jumping from the 80’s to 17. There is also a Friar recruit who is visiting Providence in October that is making his debut in Rivals’ Top 150 in Maliek White and Kevin Marfo rounds out the Top 150 in the final slot. Providence is visiting him at his school on September 9th.

ESPN has now updated their Top 60 for the class of 2017 for the first time since expanding the list from a Top 25. There are a number of Providence targets littered throughout this Top 60 list and many of them play their high school and prep ball in New England. It will be interesting to see what players in the class of 2017 Providence becomes involved with because of new assistant coach Jeff Battle.

With the grassroots season coming to a conclusion at the end of July ESPN has released their updated class of 2016 recruit rankings and there are a number of Providence recruiting targets that are in this latest version of ESPN’s Top 100. It’s no surprise who one of the biggest risers in the rankings is with Wenyen Gabriel jumping 60 spots from 83 to 23. ESPN’s Reggie Rankin also spotlighted Friar recruit JJ Matthews a couple of weeks ago as a player that raised his stock enough to possibly break into the Top 100 after the spring and summer. He apparently was on the cusp but not in the Top 100. Matthews is scheduled to visit Providence on October 3rd, along with River City Reign teammate Maliek White. The Big East also has gotten a solid haul already from the ESPN Top 100 in 2016.
Here are some details from ESPN’s latest Class of 2016 Top 100:

The 2014 Providence Elite Camp effectively produced 2 commitments for Ed Cooley last year. The first one was a verbal commitment from 2017 guard Javon Taylor. Taylor gave Cooley his commitment before leaving campus that Saturday. The other came a couple days later in the form of 2015 big man Alex Owens. Unfortunately, Owens failed to receive a qualifying ACT score this summer and has enrolled at Tallahassee Community College. Cooley is hoping the 2015 version of Elite Camp will lead to more commitments, especially from the talented crop of New England prep school talent that will be in attendance. Unfortunately some of the top talent from the area like Wenyen Gabriel and Makai Ashton-Langford — both players that attended last year’s camp — will be in NYC playing in the Big Strick Classic on Saturday and can’t attend.

The final live evaluation period of the summer is upon us and most of the attention turns to Las Vegas as many of Providence’s targets will be lacing it up in Sin City over the next few days. There is also a big AAU National tournament in Louisville taking place and some events happening in New Jersey. The Rivals — read: Wenyen Gabriel — are in Vegas at the adidas Uprising Championships so I would expect Ed Cooley will be all over them at that event.
