The second of college basketball’s two yearly signing periods begins Wednesday. With No. 1 player
Josh Jackson committing
to Kansas on Tuesday, five-star shooting guard
Terrance Ferguson
is now the highest-ranked of 10 Rivals150 prospects still on the board.
Here are predictions on where the remaining stars will land.
Advanced Preparatory International
Dallas, TX
RR: N/A
Ht: 6'6"
Wt: 180 lbs
Class: 2016
Commitment status:
VERBAL COMMIT
Arizona
The skinny: Formerly committed to Alabama, Ferguson is back on
the market. He recently visited Arizona while Baylor and Kansas are the
other two in his top tier. Others like N.C. State, North Carolina and
Maryland are being considered but would be surprising picks.
Prediction: Arizona
DeSoto
DeSoto, TX
RR: N/A
Ht: 6'10"
Wt: 250 lbs
Class: 2016
Commitment status:
UNDECIDED
The skinny: A shot-blocking big man with offense, Bolden has
essentially been down to Duke and Kentucky for a while now. Both
programs conducted recent in home visits and a decision could come any
day.
Prediction: Duke
St Stephens Episcopal School
Austin, TX
RR: N/A
Ht: 6'9"
Wt: 225 lbs
Class: 2016
Commitment status:
UNDECIDED
The skinny: One of the three five-stars from Texas who still
has to decide, Allen’s recruitment has been the toughest to read. He’s
been to hometown Texas numerous times and Houston has built a strong
relationship while Notre Dame is a sleeper. More recently, some feel
that Kentucky is making a late push.
Prediction: Texas
Morgan Park
Chicago, IL
RR: N/A
Ht: 5'11"
Wt: 160 lbs
Class: 2016
Commitment status:
UNDECIDED
The skinny: Originally committed to Memphis, he’s asked for
his release after the departure of Josh Pastner. A quick, high-scoring
point guard, Moore was named player of the year in Illinois. Oklahoma,
California, Missouri, Arkansas, Purdue, Alabama, Wisconsin, DePaul, SMU,
Miami and others.
Prediction: He just opened his recruitment, too early to tell.
Brewster Academy
Wolfeboro, NH
RR: N/A
Ht: 6'9"
Wt: 220 lbs
Class: 2016
Commitment status:
UNDECIDED
The skinny: Among the campuses Thompson has seen are Seton
Hall, Syracuse, Providence and he’s got an official visit to Connecticut
early next week. Georgia Tech, Kansas and UNLV are some others that
have reached out.
Prediction: Seton Hall
Indianapolis Cathedral
Indianapolis, IN
RR: N/A
Ht: 6'2"
Wt: 180 lbs
Class: 2016
Commitment status:
UNDECIDED
The skinny: Things have been pretty quiet for the somewhat
undersized but high-scoring shooting guard. Talk has been heating up
about him possibly ending up at Butler. With the Bulldogs parting ways
with
Howard Washington, that could be a big sign.
Prediction: Butler
Brewster Academy
Wolfeboro, NH
RR: N/A
Ht: 6'5"
Wt: 195 lbs
Class: 2016
Commitment status:
UNDECIDED
The skinny: Diallo visited VCU in the fall an he just wrapped
up an official visit to Providence. Look for him to visit Florida later
in April while others like South Carolina, Virginia Tech and Georgia
Tech are scrambling for traction.
Prediction: Providence
Quality Education Academy
Winston Salem, NC
RR: N/A
Ht: 6'5"
Wt: 190 lbs
Class: 2016
Commitment status:
UNDECIDED
The skinny: A physically tough, explosive scoring wing who had
a great season, Corprew was committed to Arkansas-Little Rock at one
point. Of late, most talk in his recruitment has centered around Kansas,
Missouri and Texas A&M.
Prediction: Texas A&M
Dominican
Whitefish Bay, WI
RR: N/A
Ht: 6'9"
Wt: 190 lbs
Class: 2016
Commitment status:
UNDECIDED
The skinny: The younger brother of the NBA’s “Greek Freak”
Giannis Antetokounmpo, he is a raw but athletic forward who drips with
potential. He recently told Rivals.com that he will visit Florida and
St. John’s.
Prediction: St. John’s
Cathedral
Los Angeles, CA
RR: N/A
Ht: 6'9"
Wt: 230 lbs
Class: 2016
Commitment status:
UNDECIDED
The skinny: The recruitment of the one time Arizona State
commitment remains quiet. He’s a faceup scorer who can shoot with range
and has good mobility. Look for some movement from him within the next
few days.
Prediction: Colorado
Elev8 Sports Academy
Delray Beach, FL
RR: N/A
Ht: 6'4"
Wt: 200 lbs
Class: 2016
Commitment status:
VERBAL COMMIT
Baylor
The skinny: A four-star shooting guard from Oklahoma, Jolly
was actually a Rivals150 member in 2015 and is finishing a year of prep
school. He recently de-committed from California and is fresh off of a
visit to Baylor. New Oklahoma State coach Brad Underwood is working
furiously to get involved and Jolly will visit OSU this weekend.
Prediction: Baylor
