Conway and Powell would be a very good start to 2021.
Tyler Powell
- Thread starter Halldan1
- Start date
and we are also in the running for a top 50 recruit from California in the 2022 class that is a baller.
yeah I was out of the loop for this one, havent read the board for 5+ days. Thanks for the heads up!
Corey Evans spoke to the Trove this past week and his 2 part interview will be posted (part 1) on the Trove Monday.
Just watched his Instagram announcement live and this Kid is genuine, polite, humble and has a great infectious smile. That is so contrary to his game face On the court when he is locked in is all business and hard nosed. He will be really easy to root for and I am thrilled he is a Pirate. He is well built right now but after our trainers get a hold of him he could end up looking like Michael Cooper.

That's weird that's the exact wording from the Trove. NYshoreguy leaking info again? Lol
You also are just so compelled that perhaps you too had an intervention from planet melmoc and intergalactic nanites infiltrated your brain
A special thank you to the 5 ft assassin, Pookey

Very good get for the Pirates and a virtual recruiting success. One thing that has stood out to me with our recruiting is how geographically diverse it has become the last couple of years and how few of the NY / NJ Metro area kids we’re getting once our bread and butter.Samuel and Ngandu are from Canada,Molson is from Buffalo , Ikey is from Georgia ( the state ) , Long is from Texas, Stevens is from DC, Tray Jackson from Detroit, Conway from Md. and Powell, a California player. Of course our one NJ player is grad transfer Bruce Aiken , a very key addition this year.
its solid and there is more coming this year and next. BTW, wouldn’t Ike still have a year of eligibility in 21/22 if he choses to use it.
However, when I saw your list it struck me that we are truly witnessing a passing of the guard. The guys from Isaiah to MP raised the program to sustained heights that we have not experienced in a quarter century. Guys who we lived and died with, saw their development, and truly became very familiar with. Guys we knew who could line up with nearly any team in the country and have real chance to get a W.
I like the guys we have now but its going to take some getting used to.
It’s always a “ feel good “ story when we get a talented recruit because of the effort or input from a a former Pirate player , in this case with Powell it was Pookey Wigington and I hope the staff works on cultivating relationships with other former Pirates particularly those who are involved in coaching HS , AAU or JUCO basketball.

It would be incredible to see Seton Hall basketball gain this sort of cultural currency again.
RIP Phife.
Still listen to Tribe called Quest. I miss the five foot assassin / funky diabetic Phife about as much as I miss MCA Adam Yauch.
As for culture currency I also seem to recall Chance the Rapper donning a royal blue Seton Hall starter jacket on occasion.

I know we like the players that have committed already and yes we are in play for some others. But other then Nova, I hate to see those other programs in front of us.
We have better recruits than butler and Georgetown they are just above us because they each have 3 kids committed and we have 2. DePaul somehow has 2 top 70 kids again like they did with this past years freshman class. And Marquette has 1 fringe 4 star while out 2 commits are ranked really closely behind the 4 star mark as 3 stars. Marquette’s second commit is ranked behind Tyler and Ryan.
Do you think that listing carries any meaning? You might as well just pick them out of a hat at this point
I do too....but it happens most every year. I trust Willard to find guys that fit his system and culture.
He has great talent and can make himself special. Dynamic training great assuming done well imo
