I know rankings don't mean much - but I think it is a good sign that with Jeff there will nine 3 star players on next years roster.

Impressive interview. Sounds like a smart kid and a student of the game, great qualities for a PG to have.

Re: '16 DC PG Jeff Dowtin (URI Verbal)
Agreed- two great pieces. Nice to hear from his coach how he sees Dowtin and also from his mom about the recruitment process. They have high praise for Cox, which seems well deserved. Cox has that education and basketball background, similar to Hurley, that seems to help him connect with families and be an effective recruiter. The interview with Dowtin was also impressive. I like to hear point guards talk about the game like that.

Wow he is longgggg!! I love that Hurley recruits big guards like this... From watching his videos he looks like he has the tools to not only be a great shooter but playmaker.

Re: '16 DC PG Jeff Dowtin (URI Signed NLI)
Since you brought up Rhody gear, I'll mention that I was in Baton Rouge about a month ago and decided to look in the LSU shop by the stadium to see how a big time school promotes their gear. I was actually overwhelmed with the quantity and diversity of the merchandise. They even had a separate store for children's gear. One of the other things I noticed (aside from the fact that every man woman and child either wore LSU gear or had flags on their trucks) was that every golf course that I went to, every store, and just about every restaurant was either selling or displaying LSU gear. It became nauseating. I had my wife take some photos in the shop, and if I can figure out how to do it I'll attach them.

I went to grad school with a LSU alum. I told him URI would kill LSU in basketball. He thought I was kidding. All of a sudden URI had LSU on the schedule and then they beat them. That was awesome.
LSU fandom is nauseating I would agree.

Re: '16 DC PG Jeff Dowtin (URI Signed NLI)
St. John's had a great showing in the Beach Ball Classic last week. They went 3-1, including a win over top ten Mater Dei. Their loss was to always great Montverde. Dowtin tends to play in the front court for this team, which is definitely not where he'll be at the next level. His current team just has no size.
Dowtin averaged 16 points in the four games (21, 8, 25, 11). His relatively poorer scoring games were against Mater Dei and Montverde, which isn't surprising given the individual match-ups. What was most impressive was his scoring efficiency, including 12-20 from 3. He was also 15-17 from the free throw line.

Two weeks from today on Saturday Jan 23, St John's goes up against St Francis with 2016 ESPN #18 Ranked PG Kobi Simmons 6'5" who is still uncommitted. Kentucky is a strong possibility.
