Rutgers has two Soph big men who are in their 3rd year (1 medical RS & 1 RS).
One will start and the other will backup a Sr. They are 6’10” 255 and 6’9” 250.

The speculation will end in 5 days.
My take is, we've got as good a chance as any.

I’m thinking Cox & Company need to take a trip to Worcester early this week! It might be needed to ice this! Go Rhody!!

It is odd, I’m not sure how he would know Elijah. There is no connection other than a URI connection. Elijah must be recruiting him.

Doesn’t bode well for us. I’m sure Iowa will go full throttle on Josh now, if they REALLY want him. He was the Foster contingency all along.

It seems like Josh already has a good connection with Elijah Wood.

On the accuracy of 247 predictions. Foster had narrowed it to two schools (Iowa & Iowa St). 100% of Crystal Ball predictions had Iowa. He picked Iowa St yesterdayURIRecruitingInfo wrote: ↑4 years ago Couple of the Iowa recruiting guys backed off their Iowa Crystal Ball predictions on 247 Sports.

Optimistic he commits to Rhody. Legget and Wood are recruiting him.

KMAC just tweeted us and PC are at the top of his list too.
Wishful thinking it seems.

They all can't be at the top of his list.
Like I said, he already knows. Kids like to make a splash, can't blame them.

Re: '20 UK PF - Josh Ogundele (Offer)
I think that finalist list is wrong. The reporter either just read his Final 5 list to him and Josh said “yes” or the reporter just mentioned something like “are you still focused on your final five”. Josh might’ve meant the 5 OVs. He didn’t even visit Va Tech and he did an OV to PC last week.
The reporter then attached an article from right after his visit to Iowa that is over a month old.

Kmac isn’t perfect but he’s more believable than some guy relying on month old information.

He said “both Providence and Rhody are near top of list”
It’s a list of 5. Everyone is near the top. And the bottom, for that matter.

Re: '20 UK PF - Josh Ogundele (Offer)
The best thing about all this, is that speculation ends in about 42 hours.
Haven't hear a peep lately about any back up plan if he doesn't sign with us.
Could be a good sign...or not.

Re: '20 UK PF - Josh Ogundele (Offer)
Crystal Ball back to 100% Iowa. The school he picked already knows at this point. If any of the media guys have called around, they may know something.
My gut is saying Iowa since Foster didn’t go.

Re: '20 UK PF - Josh Ogundele (Offer)
Thank you for your insight BAR. I often hear this no-defense comment but usually just let it go.bigappleram wrote: ↑4 years ago I’d agree with Ramster that in EYBL and with many top tier AAU teams defense isn’t an afterthought. Mokan one of the top AAU programs prides itself on defense. Rivals touts that they only teach Man2Man and stress kids playing both sides of the ball. Now when you get to the next tier down of AAU and all the secondary tournaments that is moreso where you see track meets and street ball. Also there is a a lot of zone played at AAU level not sure who said it’s only Man, there is actually a lot of debate and grief given to AAU coaches (rightfully so) who play junk zone defenses just to win tournaments and don’t teach kids how to play man. But to say there is no defense played in AAU is wrong.

I was referring to the tweet from the Iowa reporter. What the reporter said may still be true.
I’d bet my car, it’s Iowa.

ahh ok. I seriously think there's a good chance it's gonna be URI. He follows a few rhody players and also seems to have a good connection with 2020 recruit Elijah WoodTjrams91 wrote: ↑4 years agoI was referring to the tweet from the Iowa reporter. What the reporter said may still be true.

Re: '20 UK PF - Josh Ogundele (Offer)
I’ve been hearing for a month PC was interested from some connections I have there (and no, I’m not a fan!!!)
It’s interesting because RJ has mentioned his sources think it’s URI.
PC pushing new Practice facility, Big East, city of Providence
URI pushing playing time, progress made by Cyril Langevine over his career.
Kevin Mac knows his recruiting, always has, he has good connections especially locally

Maybe I am missing something but I really don't see what the big attraction is here. Here's hoping we get him but this kid has a lot of work to do before I see him getting meaningful minutes.

Re: '20 UK PF - Josh Ogundele (Offer)
How did your logic work with 247 Crystal Ball and Foster? The reporters who cover Iowa State and Iowa had 100% Iowa when he announced Iowa State. 4 of the 6 predictions are from Oct 14-16 right after he visited Iowa. 2 predictions are today from hawkeye insiders. 247 doesn’t even have PC on his list of schools - no interest, offer or visit reported.

Re: '20 UK PF - Josh Ogundele (Offer)
For what it's worth, Sean Block (Iowa insider who picked Iowa for Josh this evening), also picked Xavier Foster for Iowa the night before Foster announced. What I noticed about crystal ball is when 8-10 writers pick someone right before his announcement, something was leaked. Two guys who have waffled from undecided to Iowa in the same day is a little less convincing. Who knows what happens tomorrow morning, but still holding out hope we will have a Rhody announcement tomorrow.Rhody83 wrote: ↑4 years agoHow did your logic work with 247 Crystal Ball and Foster?
