News and Notes Around Friartown: June 3

From Friar draft prospects to recruiting lists, a look at the latest news around the web regarding the Friars.

1. 2014 Brewster Academy shooting guard Jared Terrell’s stock has begun to rise again this spring, as evidenced by new offers from Florida and Kansas, while he continues to list Providence among the schools most heavily in pursuit. In a conversation with nehoops.com Terrell once again noted that despite prior reports, he and Abdul Malik Abu are far from a done deal when it comes to heading to college together.

2. Speaking of heavily pursuit, while Abu has heard from a variety of power school this spring he said that he’s wide open at this point in a conversation with the Ames Tribune. His “short list” includes Providence, and he told the Ames paper that Iowa State and he have a special relationship since they were the first to offer. They were the first to offer Georges Niang and were rewarded for their effort there.

3. Remember Leroy Fludd? The one-time PC mention is close to making a decision and Providence is not included in his list. It appears as though the Friars didn’t pursue him heavily.

4. The Washington Post provided updates on 2014 wing Terry Larrier (a terrific athlete at 6’8) and Goodluck Okonoboh.

5. Rant Sports provided a brief video overview of Ricky Ledo’s draft prospects. Not much new here.

6. It looks like Fox Sports is ready to promote the new Big East and its players. Here they produced a video reel of Vincent Council from the past season.
