Hmmmm, so he's from the Bronx.
My guess is that Fordham at least gave some exposure of X to him.
The A10 should NOT drop Fordham.

Parrom is on campus this weekend. I'm still not sure how this whole punching thing sits with me. I'm not sure I'm comfortable with the "the coach is a difficult coach line of defense" coming out of the Bronx. I've had some hard ass mentors and bosses... and I've never decked any of them.
Then again, maybe i'm being too quick to judge. I after all, wasn't there.
All that I've read regarding the incident with Parrom is that his actions were very uncharacteristic, and that the coach actually grabbed Kevin forcefully, provoking him to retaliate. In addition, this wasn't the coach's first such incident with a player, and that most people have sided with Parrom on the matter.
My initial reaction was very similar: to drop the kid and pull the offer. But thinking a little further, Parrom had no history of any violence with any other players or coaches, but the coach did. We all like to cite a-hole bosses or coaches we may have had and the fact that we've never hit any of them despite the circumstances. But I don't think the environments in which we grew up are comparable to Kevin's. Miller knows more about that incident than any of us, and it doesn't seem to have affected Xavier's recruitment of Parrom.
I hope Kevin is having a good visit this weekend. From everything I've read, he sounds like a very good prospect at the SF position. He's got good size and is pretty athletic with nice touch from outside.
I would love to get Ari Stewart and Kevin Parrom, Tevin Baskin, or Terrance Shannon.
Omari Lawrence would also be a huge pick up, but he's more of a SG.
I trust Sean and his continued recruitment of Parrom.
I wonder how Darnell Williams managed to find Xavier?Quote:

Come to Xavier...
