@AdamZagoria: Miami offered 2017 St. Benedict's G Nate Pierre-Louis today...He's also planning to visit UConn next month.
 
A "2017" recruit has only completed their freshman year in HS....14, 15 years old....Hmmmm....Turtle and Ali gave verbal commits in their junior years, and those turned out to be dog poop because the recruiting landscape changes a whole lot in the 6 months before the November signing date...I'll start paying attention to Nate Pierre-Louis maybe a couple years from now. In the meantime, it's all fun and games, so no harm...

Speaking of which, I wonder if the SF from Meriden (or Waterbury?) who's a top 20 recruit for 2016, and who verballed to Pitt as a HS sophomore, stays with Pitt or decides to test the waters ...

I can't think of another Boneyard poster who gives us more valuable info than 3. H.S. freshmen to seniors, the info is great.
Keep it up 3.

This is true, but you can't overexert yourself. 3, make sure you're getting enough rest and staying hydrated.

I think most on this board would disagree with you. 3uconn does an excellent job with the information he provides. Is this a bit over zealous, maybe, but shouldn't warrant a reply like that.

What? I'm saying he does a lot for us and deserves some time off. The past few days I think he's made multiple threads about diffrent kids, and it must be hard checking twitter all day. He does great stuff for this board, I appreciate all of it

That makes sence. Your first post could have been interrupt in an a hole way

I knew what you meant and thought it was fairly obvious but could see how it was taken the bad way.

Well, 3, If you ever doubt your support in this forum, this should prove we have your back even when it is not needed!
 
3, you should think about using your real name on twitter and start trying to brand yourself as a recruiting guy.

You see a lot of these young kids like Alex Kline start like yourself, mainly recapping available news and reaching out to people on twitter and now they are contributing to legit sites. Basically none of the recruiting guys, save Meyer, actually have any background in basketball and have made their name by getting in the game early and networking.

Typing this, I am seeing why the whole high school scouting system is so messed up, but its the world we live in.
 
Don't use your real name and try to brand yourself as a recruiting guy.

It's a useless profession and a waste of mental energy unless you're a 30-something year old who's content making $23,000 a year and watching the kids while your wife goes off to her 12-hour shift at the cannery.

This is funny and you would certainly know more about this than me. Do you think any of the recruiting guys are doing very well for themselves? It would probably make me feel better to learn they aren't being well compensated for their run of the mill scouting ability.

The very top football guys do okay and Dave Telep used to make a good living at Scout and then at ESPN.

But even that's relative.

The rest of them are scraping. There's not a lot of cash for essentially blogging for a living.
 
It bothers me that Jeff Goodman got a gig with ESPN, I can't even begin to imagine how much this pisses off people who actually do this for a living.

Have we offered IEA yet? If Waters isn't going to happen - give me IEA!
 
It's too early to say we're out on Waters, but I think it's good that we're looking at other players. I also don't think that we'd lose much to get IEA or NPL instead. I could see either one being as good as or better than Waters in college.

Someone on this board called me crazy for preferring IEA to Waters...not sure why...

I don't think we're gonna get Gilbert either. Probably why we're expressing interest here and with other recruits.
 
There is a place between having a recruit totally locked up and panic to find an alternative. Not here on the Boneyard, but in life.

Pierre-Louis is 2017. And who are these other recruits? I haven't seen UConn connected to another 2016 point guard except for Gilbert.

Ramsy and Fisher
 
There are going to be very few classes where we don't pursue a high level guard that can handle the ball. I imagine if Gilbert were to commit today, we'd still continue recruiting this kid for '17.
