Nice little highlight tape in there as well!

This just proves that you cannot put any stock in the crystal ball. It is simply a marketing gimmick.

2015 is shaping to be another solid class, guys. Basketball season hasn't even started and we've already got everything we want for next year. Now Cronin can get ahead of the game and focus on strictly 2016 and beyond. Love everything about this! Welcome, Jacob!

Alex Kline ‏@TheRecruitScoop: Strong addition for Cincinnati in Jacob Evans. A developed body wing who can shoot, slash and make plays, he fits Mick Cronin's system.

Chad Brendel @ChadBrendel: Jacob Evans gives #Cincinnati a power wing that can score at all 3 levels. Cronin prioritized after big showing in Vegas at Fab 48 event.

Great job by Mick and the coaching staff, dare I say they have some momentum in recruiting. Great day to be a Bearcat Fan!

I can't seem to find anything that has him linked to UC...?

This post from me was just over 2 months ago. Man, Mick got on this kid quick! He must really respect our school and everyone involved.

 

[Mcginnjw]

Great job by the coaching staff! From the videos I have seen it looks like he has a very smooth shot.

 

[Bearcat Rob]

Kid recently turned 17, he's still young. Love the potential. Also this moved us up to the 29th ranked class on 247, may be even higher on the new espn ones coming out soon

Just read an article with his hs coach saying he played him at point for his first 3 years. Since he has grown so much he is moving him to more of a combo guard. Over the summer coach said he has been working hard on his 3 point shooting, which he has been deadly.

Coach also went to say how much of a basketball junkie and a system guy Evans is. I love hearing statements like this. That is one thing Cronin does a great and consistent thing in recruiting. He gets tough, gritty, hard working guys who want to play in his system. We are just now starting to see the benefits of that.
