Joseph is not currently ranked on Rivals, but is a Top 60 recruit currently on both ESPN and Scout. He's AAU teammates on Mass Rivals with Matt Cimino, who KSU offered a couple months back and who Scout has ranked as a 4*.

From Bossi(same link that I just posted in '13 thread), Custer planning to visit Iowa St. next week, then go to Stanford for their Elite camp. Other planned visits for him include South Carolina in August and Oklahoma(again for him) this fall. Custer now sporting offers from Houston, KSU, Oklahoma, Oklahoma St, San Francisco, S. Carolina, and Tulsa.

JaCovan Brown clone? That's what I thought immediately.

Physically, I'd say they look very similar, 6'1"-6'2"ish with long, lanky frame. I'm not sure I ever saw Brown explode off the floor like that though.  I don't know if Joseph, is the skilled pure scorer that Brown was/is though.

Good comparo, we'll have to keep track of Joseph's progress to see how he stacks up to Brown down the road.

Chicago hoops blogger with report from Depaul team camp, features KSU targets Keita Bates-Diop(offer), Tyquone Greer, Alvin Ellis('13 offer*), Kyle Davis(well, sorta), and Peyton Allen.

*I have no clue how Etherington's commit will effect our recruitment of Ellis, I guess we'll see how it shakes out.

Same blogger(Henricksen) ranked IL's class of '14 prospects about 6 weeks ago, KSU targets pasted below:

3. Keita Bates-Diop, 6-7, WF, Normal (U-High)
You love players that continue to make strides and improve little by little, which is what Bates-Diop has done over the past three years. When he fully develops physically (which will probably leave him at 6-8 or 6-9) -- and as he takes a leap forward with his assertiveness with continued maturity -- look out. He can step out, face the basket and knock down shots. He's blessed with ridiculous length with a 7-foot wingspan. Still a long way to go for this talented combo forward to reach his ceiling, which makes him that much more appealing.

9. Tyquane Greer, 6-6, WF, Chicago (Orr)
Hoops Report has always gushed about the upside of Greer, who is growing and filling out physically. He's still just a pup. A super athlete with length and an ability to shoot the ball with range. Still needs to play with more consistency as he will float in and out of games. He must also become a bigger weapon off the dribble and add to his overall offensive game.

14. Peyton Allen, 6-4, 2G/WF, Chatham-Glenwood
He's developed into a high-major shooter, thus he now entertains high-major offers from both Oklahoma State and Iowa. Allen has size at 6-4, shooting range and a pretty solid basketball acumen. But his body type and lack of foot speed and athleticism are cause for concern when projecting him at the high-major level.

From a friend of goEMAW who is ITK:

Few KSU related tidbits from the OU & OSU team camps. Custer dominated in Stillwater told my coworker OU, OSU, KSU, South Carolina are top 4

He also said KU is out, Marcus Foster scored, scored and scored some more in Norman. OU is getting back involved with him now.

I think Foster is one of the more underrated recruits nationally right now, he seems like a top 100 kid to me.

I wonder why KU is out?  According to Rivals, they haven't offered.  I had just assumed that since he was a BV kid, they'd just roll in at the eleventh hour and land him.  I mean, they still may.

Custer is a little overrated imo. I think he ends up at OSU. I have talked to him before and he said he loves their facilities and his girlfriend will be a freshman there this fall.

the weberite propaganda machine in action, ladies and gentleman.  meanwhile, kstate gets rid of martin, doesn't make ojeleye's top 5, kstateless martin does make custer's top 4, and the international jewish banking conspiracy forces germany to defend itself in poland.

we knew what currie was, but inflation was going down and employment was going up so we looked away.

Joseph shows well at a camp for the top players in New England. Joseph, Cimino, and several of their Mass Rivals teammates visited UCONN earlier this week:

"While Terrell is a power broker in the backcourt, the chief trait of Joseph's that stood out was his knack for bringing his best effort against top competition.

Whether it was in 1-on-1 drills or in the scrimmages later in the day, Joseph gave his very best effort on both ends of the floor.

An improved ball-handler and true distributive point guard, the four-star point guard at Ashburnham (Mass.) Cushing Academy showed what college coaches can expect from him in July. Joseph said that Tennessee, Maryland, Boston College, UConn, Pittsburgh, Kansas State and Providence are among those most active in his recruitment."
