2019 General Recruiting Thread

[Class of '66 Old Fart 83,806]

Quinones played for New Heights on the Under Armour circuit which had a much smaller season in terms of games played.  You can view his stats at  https://basketball.realgm.com/player/Lester-Quinones/Summary/127817

Not particularly eye popping:  44% FG    31% on 3's   77% FT        Assist/TO .75   

Admittedly a small sample as he only played in 8 games.  New Heights also featured Precious Achiuwa.

Hard to read off of highlights but he does not look particularly athletic or shifty, must be a hell of a shooter.

Hoping it’s not a backup option to Keion

Anthony Edwards to UGA. How FCTC pull that off, I don’t know, but kept him from that blue school so I’m all for it

There has been a lot of pressure on Georgia players to stay home in recent recruiting cycles. Hagans was committed there before Fox got fired and then decommitted and now Edwards has decided to stay home.

Adam Zagoria - 

Archie Miller and the IU staff were at @imgacademy today for 2019 SG Lester Quinones, who has Indiana among his final 7.

Found this today.

No high majors wanted to take a shot at Romeo's running buddy Sean East. Enrolled at Combine Academy Prep and has opened some eyes with big games against touted teams. Currently 20.2 ppg, 5 rpg, 8 apg with 2.4 stls. Big game against IMG and 33pts against Hargraves recently. Has had several 10+ apg outings.

It's a slow news day so I'll throw this out just for the heck of it.  Pretty self-explanatory but the top group is the recruits who have committed or we still  hope may commit.  Second group is kids we offered but chose to go elsewhere.  Third group is kids whose names popped up at various times on the IU recruiting trail but never received an actual offer.  No doubt there's many more names that could go in this third group that I missed along the way.  And the 247 rating was their rating at the time they went on my list and not necessarily their current rating.

When do kids typically get stars by their name for the first time in the ratings?

When they are sophomores.

Looks like we're still after him.

Memphis, Michigan, Indiana, and Maryland all will be in tomorrow for four-star senior Lester Quinones, a source told Stockrisers and Prep Hoops.

He visited Maryland yesterday.

Have we offered Quinones?

I was still shocked after his senior year that schools like Ball State, Indiana St, Valpo, etc never offered him.

I know he listed us in his top 7, and we've watched him but I don't think we've actually extended an offer.  I know 247 indicates we have, but I can't find any other evidence that says we have.  USPS what you say?

We have officially offered recently. However he has known for awhile that if he wanted to commit he could of at anytime.
