Kevin Parrom (Offer)

Another article on Parrom from Zagsblog

Next on Parrom’s agenda is an unofficial to St. John’s.

“I’m taking an unofficial visit to St. John’s Aug. 11,” he said. “I’ve been there before for tournaments and practices, so I’m looking forward to that.”

Lawrence previously told ZAGSBLOG that St. John’s was his top choice, raising the possibility that the teammates could both end up playing for Norm Roberts.

“We haven’t really talked it about yet, but if it’s’ a good fit I might go there,” Parrom said.

Parrom is going to have his final 5 in the next week. Expect the list of St. John's, Uconn, Xavier, South Carolina, and Clemson. USC is to late in the game.

Sounds like he's more confused than ever.

Parrom had previously said his top five were St. John’s, Marquette, Xavier, Rutgers and South Carolina, but now he is also considering UConn, Louisville, Temple, Virginia, Virginia Tech and Providence.

“I’ve tried cutting the list down but schools keep contacting me and offering me, so that makes it hard,” Parrom told PalmettoSports.

With Lawrence now committed to St. John’s, will Parrom follow?

“Kevin is day-to-day,” Jefferson said. “St John’s is on his list and he likes them a lot. But he likes Xavier and South Carolina and I’m not sure what his timetable is right now. I told him to take his time and make a good decison.”

Added Lawrence: “I’m just worried about myself right now. If Kevin wants to come to the school, I’d be happy to have him. That’s his decision.

“I’m not really a recruiter. I’m a basketball player.”

St. John’s has one scholarship remaining (possibly two) and is involved with Parrom, 6-7 Tevin Baskin of Trinity Catholic, 6-9 Jordan Williams of Torrington (Conn.) and 6-5 Lance Stephenson of Brooklyn Lincoln.

Came across this old article in the NY Daily News. Nothing to do with KP, but it does have to do with the Red Storm and all of the player turnover they've had. Even the HC is quoted as saying it's a complete rebuilding job. And it's a loooong climb to the top in a 16 team conference.

Hey the Big East is a great conference if you're at the top, but the Johnnies, well they can't even see the top. There was a bunch of noise near the end of last season whether Roberts was even going to be coach anymore. Here is one by Dick Weiss..

And this from 'Hoops' blog on Friday..

Still, the Johnnies have plenty of work to do on this one. Xavier, South Carolina, Pitt, Temple, Marquette and UConn are all involved. Parrom said he was hoping to take three visits next month, but St. John’s wasn’t on that list.

“I haven’t planned them yet, but most likely I’ll be taking a visit to UConn and Xavier and South Carolina,” he said.

Good finds waggy.

In the one long article, this guy wrote more about Xavier than either of the local schools.

Excellent pub.

Thanks
