Jermaine Lawrence - PF - Cincinnati Transfer - Bayside, NY

A little off this topic but Celtics11..


but maybe the streets of NYC (where you have to duck an almost daily fuselage of bullets both from perps and cops) will suffice.

The smily face you inserted in there makes me believe you are trying to make a joke in light of the shooting at the Empire State building last week. .   not funny at all..   people died..

Certainly potential there, but there are quite a few big men that are better overall in the class.

So all of the "recruiting experts" that him ranked #1 in 2013, then immediately had right at the top of 2012 when he reclassified are wrong..?

What do people here think of Hassan? If we don't lose anyone and the recruitment of Lawrence or Martin doesn't pan out, I actually don't think I'd be angry with a local semi-big that we can develop.

I'd focus on Ndour.

Ironically Cinci has also offered. Agree he is worth pursuing.

Rather go true big or guard (severe) we have enough guys his size who play the perimeter ( pointer, hooper, Amir)

And as I walk in my barbershop I'm greeted by all 6'8 of jermaine Lawrence

Do you happen to have an LOI for him to sign?

Bullets have been flying in NYC and everywhere else for hundreds of years-would never make fun of any incident. Smiley face was my making fun of substituting a home hoop crowd with bullets flying as a "historically intense home environment" requirement for Lawrence to pick a school. But thank-you for your attempt to keep me in check as I would hate to run afoul of the politically correct crowd.

FWIW, local SJU supporter & "Maven of Hoops" told me same thing recently.

“@JonRothstein: Hearing UNLV picking up a lot of steam in the Jermaine Lawrence sweepstakes. Rebels have made Sin City a destination for top tier talent.”

“@TheRecruitScoop: Syracuse's Jim Boeheim conducted an in-home visit with Tyler Roberson, & watched Malachi Richardson & Jermaine Lawrence workout today.”

“@AdamZagoria: Hard-working Cincinnati asst & Jersey native Darren Savino watched 2013 F Jermaine Lawrence today at Pope John (NJ)”

Apparently JL's injured hand has not healed, seeing a specialist shortly.

No longer doomed!

“@NYPost_Brazille: Jermaine Lawrence will attend St. John's Midnight Madness, per @TheRecruitScoop. #collegehoops”

“@NYPost_Brazille: Been told Jermaine Lawrence will take officials to St. John's, UNLV and Cincy in November, Kansas also possibility. #collegehoops”

A local kid taking an official to SJU.  First Rysheed coming up the Turnpike and now Jermaine, interesting.

great to see Jermaine coming to the Midnight Madness
