Since the other 2021 recruiting thread went off the rails, let's start anew here.

My only request is that in this thread folks only talk about actual recruits, recruit news, recruit updates, etc. All the other "stuff" can stay over in the old thread.

Recapping current targets (stealing some details from last post):

- Casey Simmons 3*/4* wing from Milton Academy (plays for the same AAU team Jarrod Simmons played for)

- Noah Harris (NR) PG from Rutgers Prep (same school Jonah Charles attended)

- Jack Molloy (NR) wing from NMH - COMMITTED TO YALE

- Franck Kepnnang Very high 4* Center from Westtown (same HS as TJ Berger), offered by Kansas and visited by Calipari.

- Stevie Mitchell 4* PG offered by PSU, Stanford, with Villanova just offering - DIDN'T MAKE HIS TOP 7, ST. JOES, TEMPLE, VILLANOVA, STANFORD NOTABLE REMAINING SCHOOLS

- Ed Holland NR wing from Friends Central with offers from PSU, VCU, and interest/offers from the whole Big Five (except Nova).

- Andy Barba SF from ISA in Ohio

- Isaiah Walker SG/SF from Wyoming, Ohio

- Jarvis Moss SG from Cannon School NC

- Philip Byriel PF/C goes to Perkiomen school in NJ

- Bennett Pitcher PF/C - COMMITTED TO HARVARD

- Nana Owusu-Anane 6'9 PF

- AJ Braun 6'8 PF

- Brandon Lieb 7'0 C

- Gianni Thompson 6'7 PF - DIDN'T MAKE HIS TOP 7

- Gabe Dorsey 6'6 SG

So biggest news today is that we didn't make Stevie Mitchell's Top 7, which is a shame because he is a high academic kid, who is also a top 100 national player. Not surprised by this though - he has blown up since we started recruiting him, so wouldn't judge recruiting results for 2021 class based on losing this battle.

Admittedly I don’t follow the Ivy like most of you and the entire AI is out of my pay grade so please understand I just pass along what I hear and the only thing I ask is if somebody knows they aren’t academically qualified that they don’t mention that aspect out of respect for these young men.
Name I’m hearing most is Anane but people love Lieb and expect him to blow up( think he has option of class of 20’) so I’d keep an eye on him. Hearing more names just lemme make sure it’s ok before I float them. Also hearing a lot of stuff about Burger, Georgetown, his dad and other high end big man recruit in class of 21🙄

Disappointed in the Mitchell news in that he had a mix of local schools (Nova, Temple, St. Joes) and a high academic school (Stanford) along with a few others. But the local, high academic school could not make the final 7? Not good.

Thanks as always for the info. Can you provide any more detail about Berger? Is there a question about him and Georgetown?

The only question I can think of is whether his scholarship is part of a package deal.

Here's an example of what nyc is talking about with Lieb:

I believe Lieb's older brother went to Brewster for a prep year before signing with Lehigh, where he had an injured plagued (non)career.

So I wouldn't be surprised to see him at a New England prep in the fall.

Brandon Lieb just picked up a 2020 offer to Big 12 Oklahoma... if 2020 is an option, I wonder if Penn is looking at him as a 2020 or 2021. I’d guess his 2020 offer to OU would be given under idea that we would redshirt next year.

Nana Owusu-Anane picked up an offer to Duquesne.

On Noah Harris, his coach is former Penn basketball manager Matt Bloom.

Just last week he mentioned Princeton but not Penn amongst the schools recruiting him the hardest.

Looks like we might have missed another interesting prospect we’ve offered out of CA:

Justin Rochelin 3* 161st ranked player per 247 Sports - https://247sports.com/Player/Justin-Rocheli n-46083...

Offered by Penn, Princeton and Yale from Ivy’s and a bunch of mid major and power schools. Temple also offered over the weekend.

Interview: https://phillysportsnetwo rk.com/2020/05/15/2021-th...

Interestingly he says he really likes Penn, but when asked who keeps closest contact his answer has Yale at top of the list. Don’t know if that means anything or not, but he is one to watch.

Highlights: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgUAstZpozw

Where do you get that we have missed out on him? We can be doing more. That seems to be a common theme that other schools (Yale) are outworking us. Not sure how all the schools go about the contact but it seems we are consistently not doing enough.

The B.S. NCAA recruiting Jerome-related restrictions prohibited us from normal recruitment for two periods, the second one ending June 10, so we couldn't be in contact the way Princeton and Yale were. I doubt that we get outworked when we have a free hand.

Oops, sorry I didn’t mean we missed out on him like we don’t have a chance that he will choose Penn. He seems interested based on that article for whatever that’s worth.

I just meant we missed him in our list of players with 2021 offers.

Ah, I had forgotten about this so good flag. And we are sure that is over with now?

Watching Hysier Miller highlights, he has a lot of Dev Goodman in his game with more PG skills. May be a better shooter. There are highlight reels of his defense which is amazing for high school players. He would be a good get for us.

Absolute warrior. Tough tough kid. I know a PAC-10 school loves him... he will end up with several legit offers. Saw him and thought of K Lowery lite
