TobaccoRoadEagle {l Wrote}:chicken and the egg. it's never been acceptable that we can't recruit in our own backyard. the problem is that our student body hasn't cared about basketball in a long time so its hard to make the community care. which means its hard to recruit. which means the team is going to be lower than average in performance. which means the students won't care. troy bell was one of the most exciting college basketball players to step foot on campus but he had to rally the team to win 17 or 18 games in a row before the students started to care. then they went back to caring less once they lost the 21st game.
in my mind it's only going to get worse. bates did a lot of self promotion about getting asses in the seats this season for both football and hoops but saturday's opening day attendance for the new football regieme net less than 30k fans. maybe a trend will develop but i'm not holding my breath.

Yes, I know TRE. His sarcasm reflects a belief that it's not acceptable to believe that because we've always been bad at NE recruiting it's acceptable now as well. I agree, but the problem is our lack of support still exists. Therefore, it's very difficult to bring in Nerlens Noel when we have 2,000 fans for an ACC game. He doesn't understand that fact. He should go to a game at Conte to fully appreciate the depresssing situation.

Really surprised Providence didn't land at least one of them.
Dom Uhl, a 6-foot-8, 195-pound forward from Point Pleasant (N.J.) Beach, enjoyed his official visit to Boston College this weekend and heads to Iowa Sept. 19.
“I liked it a lot,” he told SNY.tv of BC. “I like the whole team. Great guys. The coaches and the school have a lot to offer.”
Asked what his role there would be, Uhl said, “I would play the four but they said there’s no difference between the three and the four.”
Next up is Iowa and he is also considering Temple, Miami and Vanderbilt.
“All three are coming to see me [Monday],” he said.
A native of Germany who has been in the U.S. for about a year, Uhl is cousins with Rhode Island’s Jarelle Reischel, who transferred from Rice.
Uhl came to the U.S. for a better opportunity in basketball. Last season, he averaged 10.4 points, 10.1 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.7 steals at Point Pleasant Beach.
“He’s got a high upside,” Point Pleasant Beach coach Nick Catania told SNY.tv. “He’s just starting to come into his own with all his skillsets. He’s a kid that everything is so knew to him, everything is going to continue to get better. His shot from last year to this year has improved a ton. His handle has improved a ton. His post game’s gotten better. And he’s got a frame where if he gets bigger and stronger, when he adds the strength he’s going to be a tough kid to play against.”

Seems to be the priority. Hopefully we can close...

I still think Cimino is going to be the one coming here. Uhl would be a huge get, but I think he goes elsewhere. Cimino is an excellent consolation prize though, he has played some huge games in the circuit this summer and really impressed some scouts. Fits perfectly in BC's system.

It seems hard to believe that Donahue rates Johnson above Cimino, which goes against every scouting organization that I can get a look at. Shayok, however, is another story entirely, and could (if we're VERY lucky) confront Donahue with a painful choice: Uhl or Shayok? Both are obviously talented players with huge upsides, so maybe it's a question of who (we hope) commits first. Either one would be a wonderful get.

In-Home Visits: Notre Dame/Devin Robinson, Boston College/Marial Shayok, Kentucky/James Blackmon, Stanford/Justin Gray.
On the recruiting front, Point Beach senior point guard Matt Farrell told the Asbury Park Press on Sunday evening that he will visit Dartmouth on the weekend of Sept. 28, Fairfield on a still-to-be-determined weekend in early October and that Boston College has recently offered.
Monmouth highly covets the 6-foot-2 point guard and got involved with him early, but the Hawks have plenty of company as Farrell reiterated that he has not trimmed down his list of nearly two dozen schools. Farrell has not removed the West Long Branch from consideration.
Farrell’s original plan was to visit Fairfield with his close friend, Jackson Memorial forward Eric Carter, but dates could not be worked out to make it happen. As it stands, Carter is still slated to visit the Connecticut school the weekend of Sept. 28.
Indications are that Boston College offering Farrell recently has nothing to do with the Eagles going hard after Farrell’s teammate, 6-foot-8 forward Dominique Uhl. It is no secret that Eagles head coach Steve Donahue is a fan of heady, skilled, high-IQ guards, similar to the type of players Donahue had when his 2010 Cornell team marched to the Sweet 16, and Farrell fits that bill.
Boston College is the highest caliber team to offer Farrell to this point and while it is unknown whether or not Farrell will pay the Eagles any real mind, it could be a game-changer in his recruitment, not to mention be a serious problem if Monmouth still hopes to snag him.
