SIGN me up.  Ha.  It's tough in 8th grade to tell because guys who have made a physical jump have a much bigger leg up than they will 2-3 years down the road.  That said, skills and everything seem great.  Let's keep an eye on him!

I love the kids of players who never made the NBA. These guys worked hard making a living in the CBA Europe etc and for the most part instilled the hard work on their kids, . I know Rowan Barrett loved it at St. Johns.

I'd take his whole damn team.  The talent up there is crazy right now. 
I'd have to think every former player's son is in play now.  He'd look really good with Maverick Rowan and Bol Bol in a couple of years.

I cant imagine the staff hasnt at least thought this out. This kid is too good. There are too many connections. And Chris, Slice & Matt are aiming for the truly elite and are looking everywhere.

Awkward set shot, low slow release.  must improve and get a jumper.  Needs a lot of work,  Handle looks good and has a lot of stuff around the hoop that looks effective, at least against kids

Got excited when you said we have the inside track and then I read the article and it never said that so I guess it was you editorializing. Have not read anywhere that we have an inside track but would love to sign him. Was a fan of his dad too when he played for us.

I go to most of the games at Alumni Hall, and MSG, and I've never once seen Rowan Barrett in attendance for a game. Not for any reason. IDK what the program does to engage former players. I do recall a couple of years seeing Marcus Hatten, one of our best players ever walking around Alumni Hall and going completely unnoticed by the basketball program. You never know what happened there, but where are the former Johnnies? Other BE programs stack the stands w their former players. What's wrong with St.John's? I could be wrong, but it really seems like St.John's will be there front and center, but only when they want something from you.

ST. JOHN'S conspicuous by it's absence in this article. What is lazy Matt doing? Seriously though, does anyone know if we are even recruiting him and if so where we stand?

You wonder if Rowan Barrett could have been better under Louie, Fran or anyone else. There wasn't any D1 level coaching, discipline or training under the Mahoney years. Fran introduced St Johns to weight training and guys being in shape. Maybe with more program discipline and a different coaching attitude, he could have developed into more of a Lavar Postell

Mahoney was a drunk, and a complete nice person. He was our 1st nice person before Norm became the hot new piece of shit.

247 has him as the number 1 recruit in all of 2019. He is a perfect 5/5 stars. A 1.0000 rating.

Do we really have any business recruiting the current #1 recruit in his class ?

I get that dad graduated from us, but unless there is a strong bond w/ Mullin and/or the kid absolutely wants to play in NYC.

Just seems like a wasted trip, unless it's to plant seeds at this school for others.

Agree, highly doubtful IMO. Local event, so maybe Matt is really there for other players.

What's wrong with checking in? You never know, if we didn't show any interest then people would be complaining that we didn't check in on a former players son. Doesn't matter if he is #1 IMO.

Didn't realize it was local.  Thought he went to his school in Canada. This makes more sense.

If Barrett Sr and SJU or Mullin were tight I can see it, but seems like such a stretch, it's better to spend effort elsewhere.

Heard Zags was wrong on this.

Obviously RJ has reclassed to 18 and for those holding out hope for SJU you can officially move on, down to Arizona, Duke, Kentucky,  Oregon and Michigan.

This is good for SJU. One less landing spot for Scottie Lewis.

Post by: RedStormNC on November 11, 2017, 10:30:05 AM
no conflict... Barrett is Class of '18 / Lewis is Class of '19. Barrett will likely be in NBA before Lewis arrives.



I'm not holding breath that we will be a legit finalist for Lewis anyway... but would be nice.
