SG Mustapha Heron (Auburn Commit)

[ConnEd]

Not Donnell Beverly right?

D'Angelo. Beverly D'Angelo. Nice bounce.

Got to see him tonight.. Had 30 or 35 , I lost count and didn't play much in the 4 th. Reminded me a lot of Beverly. Sacred heart has some good talent and naugy doesn't so it wasn't much of a game but it was obvious he has good talent. Hit a bunch of 3's and got to the rim pretty good.

He had 46. Not sure where or how he reminds you of Beverly.

Beverly eclipsed that twice - as a junior and senior.

Again, but sure of your point or the comparison

It was a joke that whiffed a bit. He had more than 46 points over his entire junior and senior seasons at UConn (50 something as a junior, 60 something as a senior). I just didn't word it well.

Mustapha Heron is opening up his recruitment but will still list Pitt among his schools, source tells @SNYtv

This would be very fun.

 

[tcf15]

St. John's probably.

 

[lange10]

I thought the rumor all along was that he was going to decommit for Kentucky. Am I making that up?

 

[UCbcm]

St. John's probably.

you would be correct

EDIT: forgot to paste this:

Hearing St. John's is among the schools making a run at former Pitt commit @Mheron_1

That was because the coach who recruited him to Pitt went to UK, and now that coach works at St. John's.

We never really stood a chance here...

Makes sense. Mullin and co. gathering quite the roster in no time.

 

[bear]

The word for a while has been that he'll end up wherever Slice Rohrssen is.

 

[UConniki]

And UCONN is........... uhm doing what exactly ?

This article was written on 4/4/15

“I definitely will be back at Sacred Heart and we will definitely three-peat,” Heron said. “As far as college goes, I don’t know what the future holds over the next couple of months. I will have to take it one step at a time.”

"According to various Internet reports, Bryan (Mustapha's father) and current Kentucky assistant Barry Rohrssen are close friends."

Slice was still at UK when this article was written so it seems like where ever Slice was going to be is where this kid was going to end up too

Hosting two pretty damn good players as we speak.

 

[bleeny72]

He's going with Slice to St. Johns...bank on it.

Lets all hope so. In the dark past of Perno, we were atleast in the BE. Where are we now?

 

[guyergym]

Probably, but KO needs to be making every effort to get him.

 

[Stainmaster]

Probably, but KO needs to be making every effort to get him.

No, KO needs to be making every effort to get attainable guys. Going all-in on Heron would be a huge waste of time and take us out of the running for the '16 recruits we actually have a shot at.

 

[Lefty2one]

We never really stood a chance here...

Any more details? Just curious. Did we get on him late or he just never expressed much interest in UConn?

 

[superjohn]

It's a bummer when a CT. kid doesn't have any interest in UConn but that's the case here, he's going to St. John's.

yeah I agree, especially probably the best connecticut hs player in a very very long time (probably ever) non nepsac. Really don't get how he has zero interest in uconn, to each his own.

 

[HuskyBballFan]

But if he had grown up a UConn fan and we were his dream school, he wouldn't count as a big-time get anyways.
