Previewing the 2015 Providence Jam Fest

The Providence Jam Fest will take place May 9th and 10th with games being held at various locales around the greater Providence area, including Rhode Island College. Every team in attendance is guaranteed 3 games but teams can play more if they continue to win and advance. There will be local New England prep talent playing in this event across several classes.

Craig Leighton from FriarBasketball.com will be in attendance this weekend so keep an eye on their site for updates.

You can follow the action on Twitter at the hashtag #HGJamFest.

Providence Recruiting Guide to the 2nd April 2015 Live Evaluation Period

This is the second of two live evaluation periods in the month of April. A live evaluation period means college coaches are allowed to attend and evaluate recruits. As I did last spring and summer I’ll be providing a guide for fans to follow along and see where Providence’s targets are playing during a given live evaluation period.

I’ll also be doing my best to keep up with the map that tracks where Ed Cooley and his staff are during each live period and any recruiting period in between. This post will be updated as the weekend goes on and more information is known. It should be noted that the basketball team’s end of season banquet is on Saturday, April 25th. Cooley will be off the road for that and also the visit of Washington transfer Nigel Williams-Goss. I expect the assistant coaches will skip the banquet to be out recruiting during this critical live evaluation period.

UPDATE: You can watch live games of the EYBL circuit by clicking this link. The players numbers are next to their names below. Big thanks for Craig Leighton for sending the info about the live stream.

Providence Recruiting Guide to the 1st April 2015 Live Evaluation Period

This will be the first of two live evaluation periods in the month of April. A live evaluation period means college coaches are allowed to attend and evaluate recruits.
