New name on the radar. 2018 PG Immanuel Quickley - John Carroll School (MD).

@JKim97: 2018 five-star G @IQ_GodSon took a visit to Georgetown & Maryland today. Indiana is the latest to reach out.

Played AAU ball for Baltimore Elite on the Adidas circuit but for whatever reason, I can no longer access the 2016 player statistics plus there's no statistical information on MaxPreps as well.  By chance, today's Baltimore Sun has an article that indicates he was named Baltimore's All-Metro player of the year.

Baltimore Sun POY Article

Another article about him on a pUKe site that says he averaged 17.7 points, 3.9 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.5 steals per game as a sophomore.

John Carroll HS must be quite the athletic powerhouse.  In addition to Quickley, we've followed his teammate Nate Roberts '18 (PF).  On the football side, we're recruiting Devin Darrington '17 (RB) who attended John Carroll last year before apparently transferring to Bullis School for his senior season.

We've looked but maybe not all that interested?  From Zagoria:

After visiting Maryland and Georgetown unofficially over the weekend, Class of 2018 point guard Immanuel Quickley has slated more visits to some of the nation's top college programs.

The 6-foot-3 Quickley out of John Carroll (MD) has scheduled unofficial visits to Kansas (Oct 1-2), Miami (Oct 8-9), Kentucky (Oct 14), Louisville (Oct 15), Virginia (Oct 22) and Duke (Oct 28) for the next four weeks.

Quickley helped the USA U17 team win a gold medal this summer

He was watched by a slew of coaches both at that event in Spain and on the Adidas Gauntlet circuit with Baltimore Elite.

Quickley this month added offers from Providence, Virginia and UConn to go with previous offers from Louisville, Wake Forest, Villanova, Arizona, Texas A&M, UCLA, Maryland, Virginia Tech, Central Florida, Depaul, Miami, Southern California, Cincinnati, Rhode Island, Washington and UMBC.

Several names from Indiana high schools we'll probably start hearing more of in another year.

This past weekend, the Prep Hoops Indiana Top 250 Expo took place up in Westfield, Indiana at the Jonathan Byrd’s Fieldhouse. Now, we are trying to break down what we saw. The following is a look at some of the best posts we saw in the morning session of 2019 and 2020 prospects.

Tyler Stead (6’5 – 2019 – Martinsville). In the last year, you can see Stead’s body grow up a bit and that showed this weekend as he moved a lot more fluidly. Stead is doing more away from the three-point line as well which was nice to see.

Terry Hicks (6’4 – 2019 – Fishers). Hicks is a name that has come up in the last couple of weeks. He’s not the biggest guy, height wise, yet but he plays tall and strong and he’s a good enough athlete to make him difficult to stop in the paint.

Chaz Hinds (6’6 – 2019 – Southport). Hinds did well this weekend for stretches. Really like how well he moves his feet. Gets into position well and has enough strength that he can compete with other forwards. Best in the low block right now.

Matt Dove (6’8 – 2019 – Princeton). Dove is a very interesting player. Really long and lanky but he needs to bulk up his lower half to take hits easier. Showed some of his shot blocking ability and finishing with his length near the rim.

Logan Carter (6’9 – 2019 – Evansville Mater Dei). Carter is a guy who really surprised some people with how well he moved for his size. Logan is a big boy but has good touch within 5’ and you aren’t moving him off the block if he wants to be there.

Michael Scott (6’5 – 2020 – Bishop Luers). Scott is a guy to add to the watch list in 2020. Good size, some strength, and a frame to hold it all. Really mobile guy. Had some stretches but really it was a ton of potential.

Nolan Smith (6’5 – 2019 – Franklin Community). Nolan is a big, strong, undersized bit but has the hands and arms you want out of a bit. Footwork will be key but he’s probably got a little more height in him. Had good energy for a big body post.

Alex Stauffer (6’5 – 2020 – Northridge). Stauffer is a forward with some projection still left to figure out. He moves well and has some skill. More comfortable faced up with good touch in the mid-range. Once he adds muscle, game should play up.

WINGS

Joe Andershock (6’6 – 2019 – Marquette Catholic). Andershock looked really solid during games as he was all over the floor. Loved how he played inside and out and has enough length to cause problems on the boards.

Bradley Nalley (6’3 – 2019 – Corydon Central). Nalley was one of the more surprising players. A name I had heard but never seen. Great size and aggressiveness. Frame allows him to attack really well off the bounce.

Corey Landers (6’2 – 2019 – Bishop Noll). Landers came into the games with a bang. He had a couple great plays in transition and a dunk or two. Big, strong kid with some bounce and length. Good defender as well.

Demarcus Vaughn (6’3 – 2020 – South Bend Washington). Vaughn really impressed with his rebounding and tougness around the rim as well as his ability to score the ball. Coaches were impressed all day.

Hayden Smithey (6’5 – 2019 – Bishop Dwenger). Smithey just continues to impress this summer and fall. He handles the ball really well for his size and has the confidence going too. Really putting things together a lot earlier than I thought.

Cobie Barnes (6’6 – 2019 – Floyd Central). Barnes was just ridiculous all day long. Nobody could even slow him down. He scored at will near the rim and made some triples for good measure. Just a force whenever he touched the ball.

Amari Sherrod (6’4 – 2019 – Bowman Academy). Thought Sherrod did a good job at being an all-around wing this weekend. Scored on drives and jumpers in mid-range. The athleticsim and frame make him very intriguing.

Walter Hankins (6’4 – 2019 – Lawrence North). Hankins is a bully of a guard. The guy played as strong as anyone else on the floor and overpowered guys on plays, whether it was getting loose balls or rebounds.

Harrison Eckel (6’3 – 2020 – Heritage Christian). This is the second time in two weeks we have seen Eckel and he’s grown on me. Decent wing player who looks to grow and handles the ball with confidence. Doesn’t shy from contact.

GUARDS

Christian Jones (6’0 – 2019 – Pendleton Heights). Jones was pretty solid all during the morning session. The skills portion was just a setup for his play during the games. He did a great job attacking off the bounce and getting into the lane.

Brennan Neal (6’3 – 2019 – Whiteland). Neal has continued his solid play into our fall camp. Was good scoring the ball and shows promise with a big frame that isn’t filled out yet. Proved why he was one of the more underrated scorers in the state.

Anthony Leal (6’3 – 2020 – Bloomington South). Leal has now put back-to-back performances together at our camps. Quite possibly the best shooter in the class and definitely the shooter with the most upside. Tall frame gives him lots of possibilities.

Luke Heady (6’0 – 2019 – Carmel). Luke looks and plays like a coaches son. Not only that, he’s about as steady as they come. Never looked rattled and hit a couple nice jumpers and got into it on defense. Love his game for his age.

Edreece Redmond III (5’10 – 2020 – Bishop Chatard). Redmond continues to be a guy that just knows how to play the point. Has great speed with the ball and while on the shorter side, he’s got some athleticism and length. One of the best guards in the class.

Calvin Larkin (6’1 – 2019 – Winamac) Larkin is a two-guard in the making. Really good off the bounce and finishes at a high rate near the rim. Really liked his aggressiveness on counter attacks.

Cameron Leichty (5’11 – 2020 – Bethesda Christian). Cameron is a guy that showed he can make a shot this weekend. Still on the smaller side right now but looks like he is going to grow a bit. Loved his confidence.

Ethan Brittain–Watts (6’2 – 2019 – Culver Acadamies). Ethan is probably overlooked but for his age, he’s one of the more rounded guards you are going to come by. Long, tough, and smooth in the lane, Watts showed all of it this weekend.

Louisville Courier-Journal - March 2016:  Freshman Johnson boosts Trinity past Male

Thrust into the starting lineup late in his freshman season, David Johnson is making it difficult for Trinity High School basketball coach Mike Szabo to ever consider leaving him out again.

The 6-foot-3 Johnson continued to emerge as one of the city’s brightest young stars Tuesday, posting 16 points – all in the second half – and nine rebounds as the host Shamrocks beat Male 71-64 in a highly anticipated quarterfinal of the Class Act Federal Credit Union Seventh Region Tournament.

Johnson was Trinity’s seventh man for the majority of the season but moved into a starting role Feb. 19 in the regular-season finale against Central after junior guard Lukas Burkman was declared out for the season with a foot injury.

In four games since replacing Burkman in the lineup, Johnson is averaging 10.5 points and 6.3 rebounds.

“No question we know he’s a good player, but he’s a freshman,” Szabo said. “You have to build some trust, and he hasn’t really had any time to build much trust. But he’s quickly building it.”

Johnson was one of four Shamrocks to score in double figures, joining Gabe Schmitt (22 points), Jacob King (15 points, five assists) and L.J. Harris (11 points). The Shamrocks (27-6) – No. 5 in the state in The Courier-Journal’s Litkenhous Ratings – advanced to face Ballard in Friday’s 6 p.m. regional semifinal at Valley.

Bellarmine University signee Alex Cook scored 20 points and Hogan Brownley added 15 to lead No. 13 Male (25-6). Coach Willie Feldhaus said 3-point shooting was the difference, as the Shamrocks finished 10 of 20 from behind the arc and the Bulldogs were 5 of 20.

“They just shoot it so well and put so much pressure on you out there,” Feldhaus said. “If you get too much out there, then they get shots at the rim.”

After an even first half, Deondrai Williams’ free throw gave Male a 36-35 lead to start the third quarter before Trinity took control.

Johnson scored six points and Harris added five during a 14-3 surge that gave the Shamrocks a 49-39 lead. Johnson, who capped the run with a pair of free throws at the 4:02 mark of the third quarter, said nerves have not been an issue for him since stepping into the starting lineup.

“Lukas was a big part of our team, and we knew that we all had to step up,” he said. “With me coming into the starting role, I had to step up even more.”

Johnson’s 3-pointer gave Trinity a 66-58 lead with 3:39 remaining before Male made a final push. After Brownley’s putback basket pulled Male within 67-64, Trinity committed a turnover with 1:05 remaining.

Cornelius Watts’ 3-point attempt to tie rolled out, and Burton sank 1 of 2 free throws to give the Shamrocks a 68-64 lead with 41.5 seconds left. Johnson blocked Cook’s shot on Male’s next possession, and King followed with a pair of free throws for a 70-64 lead with 24.8 seconds left.

“I love my kids, but these last two or three weeks it seems we’ve played from behind so much,” Feldhaus said. “We always had to fight to come back and make it a game at the end. … You just can’t play from behind against them all night long. It takes too much out of you.”

For Trinity, it’s on to a meeting with Ballard in the Seventh Region Tournament for the fifth straight season. The teams have split the previous four, with the winner also going on to win the regional title.

Szabo likes his team’s chances Friday, especially with the emergence of Johnson.

“He’s a special talent with a really bright future,” Szabo said. “But his future is right now. He’s helping us win, along with his teammates. …

“The thing I like is that he’s not intimidated. He’s aggressive and assertive. That’s what it takes to be good.”

  Cole Anthony Solidifies Spot As #1 PG In 2019

After starting on one of the most talented 17U teams in the country this past AAU season, that experience has put 2019 point guard Cole Anthony on another level in comparison to any other floor general in the class. At Pangos Camp, he showcased explosive athleticism, ability to get into the lane at will, and even created off-the-dribble, showing an effective jump shot as well. What may have been most impressive, however, is the confidence that the Archbishop Molloy (NY) star plays with. In a camp loaded with nationally touted prospects, the feeling in the gym was that he was "the" guy.

Jamal Harris '18 (SG) was a guest at Hoosier Hysteria

From PrepHoops:

Indianapolis Attucks was very good last year with a 19-6 record and a run to the sectional championship. This year they will be much better only losing one key contributor while gaining two more. One of those is Jamal Harris, a 6’2 guard who can shoot the ball and create off the dribble very well.

These qualities have led to offers from Ball State, Kent State, Indiana State, New Orleans, Toledo, and Western Illinois. Harris has visited Bradley, Illinois State, IU, Indiana State, Purdue, and Western Illinois and he plans to visit Evansville, IPFW, Kent State, Louisville, Loyola, Ohio University, and Toledo.

The 15th ranked junior in the state has been gaining a lot of interest and during this season the interest will only just keep rolling in. This summer running with the Indy Hoosiers he played great and made some big strides in his game. Although his team did not quite reach his goal he felt it went great for himself.

Coaches have been swarming to Harris and this is due to some pertinent qualities that are in his game that will stick at the next level. That next level in two years will be a division one school.

“The coaches like my athleticism, they like how I have a quick first step and how I can get to the bucket easily and that my jump shot has came a long way.”

Even though Harris gives people skills to drool over, he is still working hard to work on his game. This summer Harris said that he worked on his jump shot and his ball handling the most but has also worked on every aspect of his game to improve for the upcoming year.

This upcoming year Attucks has many goals as a team and with many highly touted players they should be well on their way to reaching their goals. Harris is looking forward to trying to accomplish high goals this year for their team.

“I am looking forward to playing with my teammates because I did not get to last year. We want to win city and then win state.”

Harris is sure to have many options for a college and his choice is even going to get harder as more colleges see him this upcoming year.

“I want top notch academics and school with a coaching staff that will help me on and off the court. Athletics wise I am looking for a school that will let me play my game.”
