we've recruited IL in the past.  haven't recruited there really hard, but simms-edwards, j-pull, and that one lanky SG/SF whose name escapes me right now.

anyways, jordan goodman (http://maryland.scout.com/2/779451.html) is DC Assault 2011 and likes us at least a little.

DeMatha leaned on the play of sophomore guard Quinn Cook. The 6-footer missed the summer due to a knee injury but played with great efficiency and poise in the prime time game.

"I had to get my swagger back," Cook said after the game. "It feels good to be back."

He certainly played like someone that was ready to be back on the floor. Cook scored a team-high 26 points on 11 of 12 shooting from the floor. He also handed out six assists and grabbed five rebounds.

"The thing with this team is that Naji can go for 30. Josh can go for 30. Vic can go for 30. Jerian can go for 30. Anyone can go for 30 for us," Cook said.

In this game, it was Cook that turned up the heat in nearly every facet. It is easy to see why he's become such a popular recruit amongst college coaches.

Cook said he has heard from a host of schools early in the recruiting process. Duke, Villanova, Georgetown, Kansas State, Texas, Maryland, Tennessee, Syracuse, Xavier, Virginia Tech, Virginia, Kentucky and Florida have all shown an interest in him so far.

Quote from: NBE
Quinn Cook, DeMatha:
Certainly one of the most impressive point guards in the event, Cook immediately stood out when watching him. He has very quick handle and changes direction well. He has a nose for the ball, and picks up steals defensively. Cook is a great passer with tremendous vision who can really push the ball and find the open man. He can handle the ball with both hands, but needs to learn how to finish with his left better. He is also not afraid to crash the glass. Cook had five points, five rebounds, seven assists and zero turnovers.

Quote
This spring and summer, Glaze will be found playing for the newly former Team Takeover (Canada) squad on the AAU trail. The native of Toronto, Canada will be one to follow, and expect the line of college coaches to continue to grow as they see more of him in action.

“West Virginia, Oklahoma, UNLV, Wake Forest, UCLA, Kentucky, Pittsburgh, Oregon State, Georgetown, Maryland, NC State, Florida Gators, New Mexico State, Baylor, South Dakota State, Kansas State, Virginia Tech, Georgia, Akron [and] George Mason,” where the schools mentioned by Glaze when asked to name some schools that have shown early interest in his ability.

Grandy Glaze
Forward, 6-6, class of 2011

High School: Saint John’s Catholic Prep, Frederick, Maryland

AAU Team: CIA Bounce Canada

College Interest: West Virginia, Georgetown, UNLV, Ohio State, NC State

Strong Point: An offensive rebounding machine that gave his team numerous second chance opportunities.

Area of Improvement: Raw moves in the offensive post; lack of solid ball-handling skills.

The skinny:
Grandy has picked up a good bit of size and boasted it Friday evening, manhandling the opposition on the boards, looking almost like a man among boys. Glaze will need to work on his coordination and athleticism. He is not the quickest, the fastest and his shot isn’t the most consistent. Instead, he relies on his rebounding and looking for the backdoor cuts for open layups. There is still a lot of time for Grandy to develop his game, and there is no doubt that such a court-smart kid like Glaze is, he will do just that.

He said it:
“I like the versatility of the Big East, and how some teams can dominate you on defense, and yet they can still bring it to you on offense. It’s as competitive as it gets.”

Another 2011 guard who made an impression was Quinn Cook. In his team's losing effort to Spiece Indy Fastbreak, Cook was a star. While he possesses solid point guard skills, Cook can absolutely light up the scoreboard. He shot the ball well, and also scored at will going to the rim to give D.C. Assault an opportunity to win the game. Overall Cook was nearly impossible to stop off the bounce with his combination of savvy and quickness.

"K-State showed me a lot at the Manhattan Classic," Davis said. "The second time I went up there (for the elite camp), they showed me a lot of love.

"If I had to make the decision right now, K-State is definitely No. 1 on my list."
Davis probably won't write about that in an English composition, either. But the expression upon Martin's face when Davis revealed his feelings about Kansas State basketball told a story.

It could be one heck of a story for him to tell one day.

pretty much everyone that reports on cook this spring is in love with him.

Quote
2011 Game - Quinn Cook of Dematha Catholic led DC to a win and also led all scorers with 17 points , Cook also dished out 5 dimes. With Quinn's dominant play this year at the DTLR National High School Hoops Festival , on national stage against O'conell via espn and solid contributions in the WCAC playoffs , we have concluded that Cook is the guard you want when the pressure is on. What we are trying to say is that Cook's stock has improved greatly and you can mark him down as another who will side with the updated 2011 rankings.

Quote
Quinn Cook (#5 in black) who for my money is the best PG in the DC area regardless of class....He's great at setting up teammates and if he keeps growing, he's an elite PG with his quickness.

personally, i'm in love with glaze.  others love him too, but not like i do.

Quote
Grandy Glaze just keeps on ticking , he is a workhorse that refused to be outhustled. Glaze led all scorers on Bmore with 15 points and a couple of backboard breaking dunks. Grandy , because of his work ethic should be able to hold his position , Glaze has added about 10 more pounds of muscle to compliment his 6'6" frame.

Quinn Cook (DC Assault/2011)
Quinn is a talented young guard. He can attack off the dribble and change directions. He finishes well in traffic or can dish off. Quinn also possesses a good jumper, including a pull up game out to three-point range. He put together an excellent outing in the 16-U championship game loss for his DC Assault squad.

————————————————–

Jordan Goodman (DC Assault/2011)
Jordan is a very unique player. He has terrific size and strength for a young big man. Even with that, he actually plays more on the wing. He’s very comfortable doing so too. Jordan has a good handle and can attack off the dribble. He possesses a pretty smooth shot too and hit a couple three-pointers as well. He actually played too much on the wing and forced some outside shots in the 16-U title game. Most of his interior baskets came off the boards. Jordan is an outstanding young talent with a bright future.

Quinn Cook (2011 DC Assault 16-U) , a talented 6-foot point guard, has around seven offers, but he won't know who they are from until DeMatha head coach Mike Jones tells him after the school year. Cook does, however, know that Georgetown, North Carolina, Kansas State, Ohio State, Indiana and Florida are recruiting him.

Agreed.  I would go so far as to say without a 5 star/4 star combo in '11 (a la Beasley/Sutton & Judge/McGruder) He needs to be penalized some dough.   

...and yes I do think Cook/Goodman could be that type of combo.

Cook has excelled at the point.
Quinn Cook (2011)- Outside of Anthony Wroten Jr. who cannot compete with the team in Argentina due to school, Cook has established himself as the top point guard at the trials. A dangerous shooter from behind the arc, Cook also navigated ball screen situations with precision, scoring in the midrange with a nifty floater while also finding shooters.

more Cook love:

Quote
Quinn Cook (6-0, 165, PG)
2011, Hyattsville, Md./ Dematha

Cook was one of the major standouts due to his feathery shooting touch and surprisingly solid point guard play. He doesn't possess the ideal size for the Division I level, but he certainly has the game for the highest level. Prior to seeing him at the trials, I envisioned Cook as an undersized 2-guard, but he definitely showed here that point guard is his projected position at the next level. The point guard crop wasn't special, with the exception of Anthony Wroten Jr., but Cook was the best combination of scorer/playmaker of the bunch. Besides his tremendous shooting touch, Cook changes speed very well and threw some dynamite passes in transition. In addition, he executed the pick-n-roll very well and facilitated the offense on a high-level. When he didn't dish off to his teammates he has an innate ability to score amongst the bigs, including a soft floater.

Ellis:

Quote
Class of 2012 prospect Perry Ellis is a 6-8 skilled 4-man out of Wichita, Kan./ Wichita Heights. His frame and demeanor reminds me of a young Royce White (incoming freshman at Minnesota). He does a solid job converting around the paint area (uses his body well) and he can stick the jump shot at the elbow, but his frame doesn't exactly scream upside.

Stewart with Huggins: Limestone junior guard Donivine Stewart won't be with his team at Richwoods this weekend because he'll be attending Bob Huggins' West Virginia University Elite Camp.

West Virginia and Illinois are his two scholarship offers at this point, Stewart said this week.

"I've got a big schedule coming up (with the All Iowa Attack AAU team and Limestone in team camps)," he said. "So I'm just trying to play my hardest and hopefully get a couple more offers before the summer ends."

Stewart played in the Kansas State Elite Camp last weekend. The Wildcats are among a group of majors that are strongly recruiting the 5-foot-10 point guard. Iowa and Wisconsin also are in the mix.

"Kansas State went real good," Stewart said. "Nice coaching staff, nice players overall."

Following the West Virginia camp, Stewart will join his Limestone teammates for a team camp at Ohio State.

"I'm just working this summer on leading my team, getting more athletic and on my overall game," he said.

Andrew Jordan blurb

Quote
PEORIA —

Andrew Jordan's first basketball competition for Manual couldn't have sweeter.

The former Woodruff forward, who transferred to Manual in March, was a force on the boards and at blocking shots and scored 33 in the Rams' first two games Saturday at the 11th annual Richwoods Shootout.

Jordan led Manual to blowout victories over Metamora (64-26) and Bloomington (36-16).

"I was confident and it went better than I thought it would," the 6-foot-5 incoming junior said. "I see myself getting better under Coach (Derrick) Booth. Defense is what I really need to work on, and I'm improving. I've learned as much in open gym (in recent weeks) as I learned in my two years at Woodruff."

Jordan hasn't yet received any college offers but has fielded strong interest from Kansas State and DePaul, among others. He and Donivine Stewart of Limestone attended the K-State elite camp last weekend.

"The coaches I've talked to told me my freshman year was a blast, but my sophomore year was inconsistent," he said. "So this year I'm going to be consistent. And I'm just coming off the honor roll, and I'm proud about that."

Said Booth: "Andrew's been a pleasant asset for us on and off the court. He's coachable and wants to get better. He'll have to help us with scoring and rebounding."

We seem to be recruiting the Peoria area a lot lately.

Glaze is growing on me.  Still don't like him as much as Sys, but wouldn't be completely disappointed with an offer.

Quote
Grandy Glaze (6-foot-4.5, 8-foot-5.5) – You certainly can't judge Glaze's game by his physical measurements. Although he is significantly undersized, Glaze has exceptional strength and as good a motor as you'll find in a big man. Constantly on the attack, Glaze scores in traffic and rebounds in a crowd. His game won't be for every program, but there is likely a high major program who will be happy to take a chance on an undersized warrior.

sadly crossing cook off the 2011 list with this update.  if i post any additional cook updates, it will only be for old times' sake.

Quote
"Ohio State, Georgetown, North Carolina, Indiana, Kentucky, Clemson, Virginia, Syracuse" were all schools the Bowie, MD resident indicated are recruiting him. Tennessee had offered a scholarship at the time of the Showcase....  Cook has no school/conference preference - he noted "I love the Big East, ACC, Big 10 and SEC, it doesn't matter".

In theory he wouldn't even need a scholarship.  I'm not sure what in-state JUCO tuition is in Florida, but it's dirt cheap in Kansas.  He could just enroll, pay his own way for a few classes and practice with the team.  That said, it ain't gonna happen.

Saw him play at the AAU tourny in Manhattan.  He was on the MoKan Spiece team with Spradling. 

Remember looking at media guide and not seeing a whole lot of hype for this kid.  This is why I was so surprised when he looked like one of the best players on the floor. 

Don't really remember anything specifically about his game.  But, I did think he had a very nice shot.  Drained a few deep threes.  Looked like a pretty good ball handler.  All around, a very solid D-I prospect.  Very happy to see us lock this kid up.  Especially if he tops out at 6-9.

Really?  That's surprising.  Then again, I saw a very small sample size on a Saturday mogning after a night in Aggieville.  Hopefully, Spradling and McGruder primarily take care of our perimeter shooting needs.  Didn't see Sprads take many shots, though.

He recruits athletes first and shooters second.  It is the same thing that Huggins does.  If we can get a great shooter that is also athletic I'm sure we'll try but those guys are kind of hard to get.

He recruits athletes first and shooters second.  It is the same thing that Huggins does.  If we can get a great shooter that is also athletic I'm sure we'll try but those guys are kind of hard to get. 

no, he literally hates good shooters. got rid of both of them this year.

Good report BN.  But, from his HS stats, it doesn't appear that he is much of a threat from deep.  3 for 22 from three last season.

Has anyone seen Nino play? What are his strengths and weaknesses?

Saw him play at the AAU tourny in Manhattan.  He was on the MoKan Spiece team with Spradling. 

Remember looking at media guide and not seeing a whole lot of hype for this kid.  This is why I was so surprised when he looked like one of the best players on the floor. 

Don't really remember anything specifically about his game.  But, I did think he had a very nice shot.  Drained a few deep threes.  Looked like a pretty good ball handler.  All around, a very solid D-I prospect.  Very happy to see us lock this kid up.  Especially if he tops out at 6-9. 

Good report BN.  But, from his HS stats, it doesn't appear that he is much of a threat from deep.  3 for 22 from three last season. 

Where'd yuo see the HS stats? I thought I read an EBoss report that had him knocking down a couple threes too.

But the tards think everyone we get will be top 50 and 4 or 5 star.  I will wait till he moves up in some rankings before I believe he is that high.  Any idea who his offers were from?  I read he was getting a lot of good ones from pac10 and big12 but no one had them listed specifically.

as others have noted, frank and co. have generally been pretty solid w/ early offers.  I wouldn't be surprised if he stays in Spradling territory, but I wouldn't be surprised if he snuck in to the top 100 either.  (keep in mind, this is only based on our staff's early offer history - I haven't seen him play).

Frank Martin adds two recruits

It looks like Kansas State men’s basketball coach Frank Martin had a successful recruiting weekend.

Nino Williams, a 6-foot-5 guard out of Leavenworth, has verbally committed to join K-State in 2011. And according to zagsblog.com Shane Southwell, a 6-foot-7 guard out of New York has committed to K-State for 2010.

Both are three-star recruits according to rivals.

I just got off the phone with Leavenworth high school boys’ basketball coach Larry Hogan, and he said Williams will be a good addition to K-State.

“It’s going to be a good fit for him,” Hogan said. “Coach Martin was out here in the gym a few weeks ago and I think that pretty much sealed the deal.”

As a junior, Williams averaged 16.6 points and 7.2 rebounds per game for Leavenworth. Both stats led the team, and Hogan said Williams is capable of doing the same at the next level.

Hogan likes the way Williams can both attack the basket and shoot the 3. He said Williams is always in the gym, practicing his game, and that the release of his jump shot is faster than anyone he’s ever coached.

Put all those skills together, and it’s not hard to see why Hogan believes Williams could be the best player to come out of Leavenworth since Kansas All-American Wayne Simien (the last Leavenworth player to lead the team in both scoring and rebounding).

“You don’t go into the Sunflower League, lead your team in scoring and get seven rebounds per game without being aggressive and having some ability,” Hogan said. “He has all the tools. He can run, he can jump and he can shoot. He’s capable of scoring all over.”

Other stats on Williams: He shoots 73 percent from the free-throw line, he is a 30 percent 3-point shooter and he leads the team in fouls.

Hogan said that wasn’t a bad thing.

“He loves to play,” he said, “and he’s not afraid to go at the basket or step outside and shoot. He will do it all.”

Williams is a senior at Leavenworth, and if he doesn’t join K-State until 2011 he will need to spend a year in prep school in between.

Southwell chose Kansas State after visiting last weekend

“I’m committing to Kansas State University,” Southwell told zagsblog.com. ”I actually made it Friday but I probably knew that I was going to this school since early September.”

He continued.

“The whole campus is beautiful. The teammates were great, the coaching staff was great. The fans were crazy. They love their basketball and their football.”

Interesting note:  His first draft of this only had the paraphrased stuff about southwell and where Nino and southwell were from.  I left a comment about how he should add new info and try to break the news before other people.  I also left a long list of people to call including player coaches.  I came back a couple hours later to find the part about Nino's coach and my comment was deleted. 

I really like Meek's update.  So Will Nino graduate from Leavenworth or will he need to go prep?  Did his not getting credits make him a junior again?  This will not take any time away from him?

73% from the line is good.  should be able to develop an outside shot.  but he needs to be downgraded a bit for being a year older than other 2011s.  probably not as likely to develop physically as might have been assumed.

Lot's of weird stuff out there.  There was a CSI scandal when he coached there, apparently he accused USC (Bibby was coach) of offering him or CSI money for a recruit.  Looks like he left coaching to work at Rusty Eck Ford.  ku grad also.  His son also plays at Leavenworth High.

That's one way to look at it, but wouldn't it make more sense that he would be more developed when he gets into college than the average freshman?

One of the first articles on GPC said this,"Doctors have projected that the still-growing Williams will hit 6-foot-8 or 6-foot-9 before he takes the floor in college." 

Hopefully that plays out.

those were the best days of Wichita HS bball.  Remember the Heights team w Cortez Barnes, Norwood, Dreifort (2nd overall MLB pick), some kid who played Safety at OSU.  Cortez could have been great.  South still won the CL title that year.

East high had eyeballs Hutton and NBA'r Adrian Griffin a couple years apart.

yeah, i remember griffin really well also. he was a big man with just about no shooting touch in highschool and then went on to play guard in the nba and had range. saw him airball two free throws at the state tourney one year. one of them off the backboard (no rim) and not on purpose.

Hieghts and East  always had good talent as well.  It does seem to me that GWCL was much more talented as a whole back then

Carroll had Randy Staats for a while too (though Eck stole him away) he went on to play at OSU via Colwley JUCO.

Remember the kid from West?  I want to say his name was Kendrick something-or-rather...went on to play for Hutch JUCO.  Wasn't a good enough ball handler for d1, but man he could shoot.  Anything past half-court was in his range.

Quote
Per Scout.Com.... Corey Hilliard, SG/PG, KC Truth- For a second day in a row, Hilliard was terrific. We still like him as a natural scoring guard, but he does have the handles and vision to play some point if needed. A tough kid who wastes little motion, he’s efficient in what he does and has a serious weapon in his pull up jumper. A capable athlete who can finish above the rim.

Think this is a Bossi quote

Besides Cook and Olapido, who else does Dematha have this year?  Really don't like seeing Billy Donovan's name in there.

The best thing Williams does right now is score. He is a solid shooter out to 17 feet. He is effective in the post as his body allows him to beat up smaller opponents inside. His handle is decent right now and should improve by the time he arrives in Manhattan.


We've compared a lot of guys to Hoskins since he's been here, but that sounds like Hoskins, especially when you consider his size.  We'll see.

Rodriguez quips:

Quote
Krop’s backcourt returns the team’s leading scorer in Angel Rodriguez, a 5’11 point guard in the class of 2011. Rodriguez averaged 18ppg and 8apg and earned All-County as a sophomore.

Quote
When commenting on his players, Coach Rodriguez said: “Angel Rodriguez is a scoring pg, all around player and a tough player who is a great finisher around the rim. Didn’t shoot it well his sophomore year, but is shooting the heck out of it in our off-season. He is physically a very strong kid and great defender. He is going to be a heck of a point guard at the next level, and might be ahead of Javi Gonzales at the same age.

Things are looking good with Quinn Cook.

"(A visit to Kansas State) will probably be after the season," he said. "It'll be hard to do something during the season, so that's not going to come until after. He's spoken with K-state but hasn't had a chance to watch a game yet this year. I know he's real close with (Wildcat assistant coach) Dalonte Hill. They've been in contact."

"Quinn fits their style of play very well because he loves to run and be the guy passing the ball," Parker said. "That's what Dalonte always talks about. They wouldn't lose anything. We talk about (Jacob Pullen), and how when he's leaving, Quinn would be coming in. You don't miss a beat there. His final decision is going to be what his relationship is with a coach and what his chances of playing early are, though"

Larkin, the son of former MLB shortstop Barry Larkin, currently holds offers from George Mason, Virginia Commonwealth, Central Florida and South Florida.

"I do wanna have a good relationship with all the coaches and they have to play my style of basketball, like up-tempo," Larkin said.

Of his visit to the U, he said, "I went there on an unofficial visit on I think the 6th of November, and I liked it, the campus and everything and the coaches seemed real cool, like a family."

Larkin is also being pursued by Alabama, Clemson, South Carolina, Florida State, Cincinnati and Kansas State among others. He hopes to make a decision before his senior season.

that's three kstate recruits on that team.  plus it's where latwill was going to go before he went somewhere else.  not sure if the coach latwill was going to play for is the same one that's there now though.

also gus gilchrist.  maybe some others (maurice sutton?).

iirc it was something like:

j-mart:  he is, you guys are retarded
sd: am not
mcat: yeah, am not.  He should land Cook if so.
j-mart:  who says they even want Cook?
sd:  I F^CKING SAY WE WANT COOK!

was pretty katpak'd but that's how I remember it.  It entailed more hbbiq talk between mcat and jeff but trim and I would usually sneak away and take photos of each other doing the combo fan whenever the hbbiq talk got really rev'd up :dunno:

Nino Williams played @ Olathe South last night.  EMAW co-worker of mine went and checked him out. 

Said he is built well.  About 6'4".  Hit from outside (3).  Good stroke, active, STRONG.  After a year in prep school he should be a beast.  Said he will be a 3 but will have to put on some muscle. 

I HATE the Dom comparisons but he's basically a less athletic Dom with a jumper.

He was on track to graduate, but he was already set for prep school, so he is going to just do that and then join us a year later. He will be coming up this weekend on Saturday, too."

Former 3 time state champion Rico Richardson reportedly has been offerd by Kansas State.  I rember sending Delonte Hill an e-mail to check this kid out when he was a freshman tearing it up at Highland Park. Should be a senior at Park this year but got in trouble with the law so he moved up to Chicago.

good find.  Wouldn't make sense for us to offer Richardson but not Boatright, but whatever.

K-State is watching Southeastern Iowa Community College player John Wilkins. 6'9" Wilkins is from Belgium and was committed to Bradley but couldn't get through the NCAA eligibility.

 http://www.nbebasketball.com/w3/2010-0209/big-east-news-notes-282010-2/

Kevin McNamara of the Providence Journal reports that PC is Still Recruiting for Next Fall despite their current scholarship situation for the 2010-2011 season being full on paper. Providence welcomed John Wilkins, a 6-foot-9 native of Belgium who is now enrolled at Southeastern Iowa Community College, for a visit last weekend. Wilkins signed to attend Bradley back in the fall of 2008 but never enrolled there. Coaches from PC, Marquette, Kansas State, Tennessee and others have stopped by for a look according to his JUCO coach Terry Carroll. Wilkins is currently ineligible to play Juco ball because he appeared in five professional games in his native country four years ago, so he could have four years of eligibility at the 1-A level depending on the NCAA ruling regarding his play with professionals back home (see Deniz Kilicli).

Good video below of Quinn Cook leading his HS team(DeMatha) to win over O'Connell HS featuring UNC signee and McD AA Kendall Marshall.

Bear in mind DeMatha features 4* Jerian Grant(signed w/ND, Harvey's kid), 3* Victor Oladipo(signed w/Indiana) and Top 35 '11 prospect Mikael Hopkins(who's only known offer happens to be from Hairpiece), yet Cook is clearly seen as being the best player and leader of this team. Difference-maker from Day 1 wherever he ends up.

 Everything i've heard sounds like Diaz might go the prep school route which would make sense because of scholly count. We did get Angel Rodriguez so i think that would be the last scholly.
