http://www.rumbleinthegarden.com/2012/3/12/2864872/st-johns-recruiting-2012-felix-balamou-commitsCloser to home, the Red Storm have their eyes on Thaddeus Hall (Quinn's evaluation of Hall at the PSAL semis), Florida guard Carlos Morris, and others. And don't discount St. John's as a player for a fifth-year senior who would be able to transfer to the program for a year while taking graduate classes.

That was where his first of three high schools, Don Bosco, was located. They raid all of our size in basketball and take a lot of our guys in football.

Just a quick question. What are the rules (not ethics) regarding reaching out/speaking to a recruit who has only verballed but hasn't signed yet?
Would the addition of Morris and hall at this point be an overload of guards?
Quote from: Chilleb on March 12, 2012, 02:17:53 PMWould the addition of Morris and hall at this point be an overload of guards?I think this makes getting both HIGHLY unlikely. I think clearly Morris is the target. He can play both 2 guard and wing and Hall is most likely to do a prep year anyway.

I think Felix will be more of a stretch 3 than a 2.
Tim Abromaitis would be a pretty sweet 6th year senior to get...doubt that happens though.
I read 6'3 with a 6'6 reach.
what 5th year Sr. are they talking about?!
