2015 and 2016 Recruiting Targets

[FriarJ]

Providence

2015:
Cheick Diallo (#9 ESPN - former HS teammate of SJU player Chris Obekpa)

Josh Sharma (ESPN 4 star)

Donovan Mitchell (ESPN 3 star)

Jarred Reuter (ESPN 3 star)



2016:
Braxton Blackwell (#18 ESPN - former HS teammate of PC commit Jalen Lindsey)

Josh Langford (#12 ESPN)

If that's accurate someone should lose their job...he's already a 4* & he'll probably be a 5* by senior year.

You nailed it. Donovan Mitchell is going to be a superstar. ESPN is so off on so many of their rankings.

I guess we've also thrown our hat into the recruiting ring of Donovan Mitchell...Go Pirates!

Not sure where he will ultimately end up but I can say with certainty that PC will be in it to the end. Cooley has a great relationship with this kid forged over the last 2 years. Expect to see Cools at every game this kid plays for the next year. He is numero uno on PC's list and the reason he's not looking for a PG for 2014 after they lost Kaleb Joseph to Cusse.

Sounds awesome looking forward t it. I wonder what he thinks about the number of players between 6-7 & 6-9 that should be on gtown's roster when he hits campus.
