He's a developing guard. He has great ability to penetrate the lane, square up to basket, and get shots off in the paint. He has pretty solid handle and all the gifts physically. It will be interesting to see him compete this summer. I'll definitely see him a number of times too.

I got some very brief footage on him from an event a few weeks ago. He pops up around 4:20 mark but if you want to watch everything its all players from NJ/NY in the video.

Recent article from Northstar blog indicates SJU showing interest and may offer:

Quenton DeCosey, a 6-foot-5 shooting guard out of St. Joseph’s Metuchen (NJ), is one of the top recruits on the Sports U team. The latest standout at Andrew Bynum’s alma mater, DeCosey has offers from Seton Hall, Rice and others, according to Coleman.

In addition, Notre Dame and St. John’s are amongst the school expressing interest in DeCosey. Coleman added that St. John’s “hasn’t offered yet, but I think that’s coming very soon.”

If he was '13 I'd say OK.  But not '12.
Remember who broke the Slice news

Maybe but right now he isn't good enough he's really raw. There is potential though without a doubt. Few guards match his size and long lanky frame. He shot the ball really well this weekend dropped 25 and 31 in first two games very efficiently.

He plays a big role on his high school team which is the opposite of AAU which he completely blends in as they have a really balanced attack.

Gets into the lane and does a really nice job of keeping the ball up high as he steps making it really difficult to block his shot. Probably that is what I like about him best.

With an up and coming recruitment that continues to grow, Decosey has five offers from, “Seton Hall, St. John’s, Towson, Manhattan and Rice.” Along with that, he has interest from “Richmond, Virginia, Georgia Tech and Georgetown.” The Garden State native recently attended an open-gym workout with the players at Seton Hall, a school that is very local to him. While the Pirates have not had the best of luck in landing in-state players, Decosey could end up there. However, his dream school is Georgetown and the Hoyas are interested.

I really like his height and length as a guard.  Kid has really long arms.  Good handle with both hands as well.  Maybe raw, but seems like a lot of potential there.

One guy in the video had the last name "Brix".  Must make for tough sledding with a name like that. ;D

Would be very surprised if he actually has a firm SJU offer.

One of the Top 20 All-Star participants was Quenton DeCosey, an athletic 6-foot-5 wing from St. Joseph of Metuchen (NJ) and the Team Izod/Sports U AAU travel program. DeCosey told NBE on Friday he has offers from Rice, Seton Hall, Temple and Towson. Virginia, West Virginia, St. John’s, Georgetown, St. Joseph’s and Rider are showing interest.

DeCosey told NBE that he has taken unofficial visits to Seton Hall and Temple and plans to check out Georgetown next week on an unofficial visit.
