1 official left.

I really don't think Dorsey is a priority for our staff...I would be surprised if we even got an official visit at this point. I have heard that his camp is high maintenance and that had turned us off to him a little bit

I think we were more on him prior to his Zona commitment and haven't really hit him with the full court press recruitment pitch after he re-opened

isn't dorsey like 19? he's better off at oregon or colorado where he could play immediately. not sure that would happen at kansas with the ukranian prodigy and graham.

Dorsey will turn 19 during his Senior HS season, still 18. This isn't that rare a circumstance. Isiah Briscoe is another one will also be 19 coming into his freshman year. It happens plenty, not a big deal in recruiting in my mind, maybe it hurts him as an NBA prospect but not until then.

Jalen Adams as well will be 18 going on 19 this high school season. His b day is December 1995, so he will be 20! Only a third if the way into his freshman season. I don't care though, as long as they play well and rep the Husky with pride.

If he's not sure from the rest of the list let him go, we'll be fine without him. Use your time on someone really interested!! Like a PF or big wing/3…….

I've asked this before, but why is he taking a pg year if he has graduated high school and we have scholarships available??

Many recruits make a PG year their plan early on, so that they get an extra year to develop before moving on to college. Once they decide that they are going to be in the Class of 2015, say, they don't take all the core courses necessary to be eligible going into 2014, since they have an extra year to work with.

Not saying that's the case with Jalen, but that's my educated guess.

With Boat graduating and the possibility that Purvis declares for the draft if he has an outstanding season, there will be a lot more room in the backcourt for the 15-16 season. Jalen could potentially battle for a starting spot/heavy minutes then, whereas adding him in for this year gives 6 guards competing for a likely 4 rotation spots...yikes. I know the adage here is "recruits who are worried about PT lack confidence and therefore aren't good enough for us", but Brewster's rotation is less crowded and gives him more time to blossom as an in-game leader.

For the college player, older is probably better no? More maturity goes a long way in college.

Still no UConn visit for Mr. Dorsey - looking less and less likely

He will visit Oregon Sept. 5-7, Colorado Sept. 19-21, Kansas Oct. 10-12 and Arizona State Oct. 17-19

“@phillipshoops: Per Dinos Trigonis, 2015 guard Tyler Dorsey down to Az State, Cal, Colorado, Kansas, Oregon, UNLV. First 5 get officials, UNLV unofficial.”

 

[superjohn]

Not a big fan of his game.

Yesterday Jerry Meyer of 247 tweeted at me saying that we are out of the Dorsey race.

So when does he say Dorsey is going to UCLA/Pac-10 school because then it's a lock to UConn.

 

[mauconnfan]

Need someone like him. Still a long way to go, kids change their minds, people transfer, seniors have an extra year and go elsewhere (Kromah) but this is a definite requirement.

Thanks. Interesting tip

 

[RipCity]

Yeah he thinks Colorado because Kansas will fill their guard spot with Newman. But regardless confirmed we aren't in the race anymore.

 

[MDHusky]

Dorsey to Cal according to Twitter, 3 coaches at last game.

Don't think he committed.

Confirmed UConn was out, or he thinks UConn is out? Those are two vastly different things.

 

[husky99]

Top tos guy said Dorsey has not committed but cal leads

Selden, Oubre, Newman. What a waste.

At least let Newman commit there first before trashing him. These crystal guys are given way too much credit.

I'm not trashing them, I'm trashing Self.
