SG Nate Tabor to take OV to UConn

[UConnStats]

ESPN has him ranked #57

Nate would be a great start on 2020 recruiting landing a big time commitment this early in the process would be great for UConn moving forward. Then at that point you can chase the really big fish

With the official visits so early for a 2020 recruit makes me wonder if he may reclassify to 2019. Would def take him for 2019, especially him being a CT kid. Anyone know if he's eligible to reclassify?

 

[UconnU]

Tabor and Springs would be a great (and realistic) 2020 class. Probably going to go into 2020 with only 2, possibly 3 schollies.

Don't think so...he seems to be just taking advantage of the new rules. Juniors can take 5 OVs between 8/1 and the end of their junior year, and then take another 5 OVs as a senior (starting the day after junior year ends and Oct. 15 following completion of high school).

He's not technically a CT. kid. He's from the city but trains with Heron's dad and plays for Sacred Heart in Waterbury, AAU with NY Rens. Those guys didn't seem like the biggest Uconn fans but maybe that's changed. Kuminga and Tabor seem pretty interested in us.

Kofi too, obviously.

Did that actually change in basketball? This article seems to imply basketball and football were exceptions.

Edit- Found the change to the change so to speak following FBI probe. Answer is yes, 10 total visits before high school graduation broken up by year.

He must have relatives in Waterbury he’s living with? Lol Sacred Heart is out of control think they’re a prep.

It’s a private school. Why would he need relatives in Waterbury?

Quick Facts - Sacred Heart High School - Waterbury, CT

They have international students. They are a catholic school, yes, but also a prep school.

Chief likes Springs too.
