Isaiah Whitehead - SG - Lincoln HS - Brooklyn, NY - SETON HALL

Adam Zagoria @AdamZagoria
There is no longer mutual interest between Syracuse and Isaiah Whitehead, sources confirm to @SNYtv

Wow, wow!!!

Keep an eye on the Hoosiers.

“@JordanLittman: Isaiah Whitehead's assistant coach, James Barrett, is disputing the earlier report that Whitehead is no longer considering Syracuse. #iubb”

From Whitehead's perspective it is not true.  Really wish we didn't put the brakes on this recruitment.

We worked him hard, but it seems he's showing zero indication of wanting to stay home and play at SJU.  Anything I'm missing?  Doesn't seem we have a real shot at him.

Correct

Oh well, kid wanted to play at 'cuse.

'cuse liked other players better.

That's the way it goes.

when is time we have top 30 players clamering to play at sju and we say no thanks

Has the staff given up on Whitehead?  Seems now would be the perfect time to pounce.  Lavin should invite him to the Cuse Game.

 

“@AdamZagoria: Isaiah Whitehead still listing Indiana, UCLA, Arizona, Minny & Syracuse..no visits planned.”

“@NYPost_Brazille: Lincoln shooting guard Isaiah Whitehead will visit Indiana unofficially Sunday, I'm told. Will have more in recruiting column later. #iubb”

“@NYPost_Brazille: After Labor Day, Whitehead will set official visits plans to take all 5. Visit Sunday to #iubb is to get to know staff and check out school”

"One school that is conspicuously out of the picture now is St. John’s, one of the first schools to offer him a scholarship at the start of his high school career. The Red Storm, who also lost highly ranked Bronx forward Chris McCullough to Syracuse, don’t exactly have a glut of shooting guards, either, as D’Angelo Harrison and Phil Greene IV will be seniors next year, and they had recruited Whitehead hard in the past. That doesn’t mean they can’t get involved again."

“I’ll listen to everybody,” Whitehead said."

Is this guy looking to be a one and done. It seem that the kid coming out of Lincoln are  looking  to play and then drop out before the end of the academic year. I haven't noticed any comments on his  academics have you heard anything

Last year I believe he skipped some of the spring and summer events because he had academic issues.  At this point I think he is fine but he has had some in the past.

I asked Isaiah Whitehead about St. John's and he said he would listen if they wanted to get back in the picture. #stjbb

Sounds like lip service.

“@CNG_Staszewski: Whitehead has made this game his tonight. Great finish to a big summer for the Lincoln star. Has 26 points right now. #elite24”

Sounds like lip service.

It really isn't.
