Welcome to The Holy Land of Hoops

2020 recruiting isn't close to being over, but our last place DePaul team has the #2 class in the country. They picked up top 25 recruit Keon Edwards today. He's their second top 100 recruit.

Butler has the #19 ranked class. So far only 25 teams in the country have recruits.

Nice get by Depaul.

Nova added Nnanna Njoku today. #86 on 247.


Updated rankings:
#5 DePaul
#17 Villanova
(rankings stop at #29)

Creighton just got a verbal from PG Ryan Nembhard. #89 on 247 composite. Great start to what will be a huge class for Creighton.

Very early still, but 247 class rankings:

#3 DePaul
#7 Butler
#24 Villanova
#27 Creighton
#34 Seton Hall

Out of 46 teams with classes.

Excellent start!

Hearing whispers that 2021 class is going to be HUGE for Nova and June it’s best month. Nothing in stone but we might be seeing some big pops soon to join Njoku (I pray) .

Perhaps... Perhaps others.

I do know that our target list and UConn’s have a lot in common. So that should be interesting... But we’ve got at least 4 leaving the program next year and am hearing that we might see those spots filled sooner than later.

We also need at least 4 guys. It'd be a huge upset if UCONN flipped Patterson or Longino from Nova, but then again, Sanogo to Seton Hall was also a done deal...

I think it's pretty much a given we land 1 of Clingan or Etienne (both CT guys, top 50-ish players) and right now we're supposedly the team to beat for top JUCO El Ellis. Could very well be Hurley's third straight top 20 class.

PC will find out tomorrow about 4* Bobby Pettiford PG out of N. Carolina. It appears to be down to Louisville and PC. The crystal ball nerds have it 12/12 Louisville but the kids Instagram has been chock full of positive PC stuff and Y'all going to be shocked type posts the last few days. If he chooses the Cardinals this will go down as one of the biggest troll jobs by a recruit ever on us.

I will add that this is the exact kind of PG that thrives in Cooley's program. Tough as nails leader tenacious on both sides of the ball. I hope we get him.
