Dang.

Not sure if we wanted to give him his own thread, but we just had a walk-on commit for next year.

@Corey_Albertson 53m
'17 Cincinnati Summit PG Sam Martin has committed to Cincinnati as a preferred walk-on.

For a walk-on, kid's a hell of an add. His height (5'9" or 5'10") seems to be why he didn't get many (if any) offers.

- 15.5 ppg (5th in conference)
- 55.9% from two (157/281)
- 46.3% from three (57/123)
- 81.5% from FT (44/54)
- 2.9 asts/g (4th in conference)
- 2.4 stls/g (4th in conference)

Yes. Apparently this kid was a star soccer player too. Think he'll be a huge help in practice.

Kansas transfer Carlton Bragg tells me his top five are Xavier, Arizona State, Illinois, Cincinnati and NC State. Will set visits soon.

It makes sense. It's a perfect fit here basketball wise.

Former Oklahoma State commit Amauri Hardy says he is on a visit to UNLV. Also considering Arkansas, Memphis, Georgia Tech and Cincinnati.

This guy looks like he can really play. I'd take him in a millisecond if it looks bleak for Bragg. I have no idea on Bragg, just saying.

Agree, good looks good

 

[cincyguy13]

I think Bragg is our #1 option, then maybe hardy. If we can't get either I think we should save it

Disappointing Fact of the Day:
The AAC doesn't have a single 4- or 5-star recruit for 2017. (According to 247 composite; I know at least Keith Williams is borderline 4-star, depending on where you look.)

The final 247 rankings moved Keith Williams to a 4 star and ranked 102 in the country.

Also uconn has 2 guys that are both 4 stars: Tyler polley and josh Carlton

247 rankings have not been updated to reflect their final player rankings

Love the size we are bringing in with this class. Two 6'5 SG, 6'9 SF and a 6'8 C.

 

[GarradJ21]

Is our recruiting class ranked anywhere with 4 recruits?
