2012 class was pretty loaded

- Gary Harris

- Yogi

- Jeremy Hollowell

- Hanner Perea

I think they were all top 50 guys with some others mixed in too. Maybe Mitch Mcgary too?

I've probably bored some of you with the stats I've posted from the EYBL events that feature a number of players we've extended formal offers and are actively recruiting .  ESPN Nation updated its list of the top 100 players in the '17 class.  26 of the top 30 players ranked by ESPN are members of the EYBL, including nine out of the top 10.  In total, 71 of the top 100 players ranked are members of the NIKE EYBL, so if you're fortunate enough to be playing on one of the EYBL teams, you're playing with the majority of the nation's top prospects.

The reference to Peach Jam simply means that their team has qualified for the EYBL Peach Jam Tournament.  And FFIW, Trendon Watford who does play in the EYBL, does not appear on the list because he's not in the Class of '17.  It is mildly concerning that Al Durham, our '17commitment also plays in the EYBL, but did not make the ESPN top 100 list.

Martin, my wise ass answer is no more than 29 since 71 play in the EYBL, but the honest answer is I don't know.  The Adidas circuit simply doesn't provide the depth of stats that the EYBL does or, if they do, I haven't been able to find them.   

 

Today, ESPN released its Top 60 in the class of '18:  http://espn.go.com/college-sports/basketball/recruiting/playerrankings/_/class/2018/order/true

As someone previously noted, Romeo Langford is #2 and he's on the Adidas circuit.  He's also the only Indiana kid on this particular list.

#17   Darius Garland - EYBL playing up; teammate of Jordan Goodwin who holds an IU offer.

#46   Tyler Herro - Adidas

Old Fart, Pap, General, and others thanks again for all the work you do updating recruiting threads and the inside information you provide. I know this is a slow time during the year for sites like this with more people bring outdoors and on vacation but you keep us updated with all the going ons. It's much appreciated.

I apologize for not being around. Got a lot on my plate and just having trouble carving out time but class ends this week and should have some time to maybe get one of the rambling updates in
