Hopefully we can keep this thread alive since there is a lot going on in the recruiting of college basketball players right now. Who visited over the weekend and does anyone know how it went??

Heard that the staff was not impressed with Battle's play when he visited...funny, sometimes the coaches pass on a recruit not vice versa.

Towson has just picked up a 6'11" transfer center from USC who was a four star recruit out of Florida. His name is Chinedu 'Victor' Uyaelunmo. This is a huge get for Towson at least on the face of it!

I know we have been known to sign kids late in the process but I wonder if we have ever signed anyone that was just finished with their junior year?? These last two scholarships are important to our success this coming year IMO so I hope we are selecting and not settling which seems to be the case as in the rejection of Battle.

I believe Chaz Williams gave a verbal to Pecora very early in his HS career

I didn't know that and if he didn't transfer that would have been some team.

I know it's redundant but I would like to know what out definitive plans are in the post this year. We clearly could be vulnerable down there.
