Regardless, he's an elite 2019 prospect, one of the top 25 players in the class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheChosenOne Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 The 2018 thread was started well over a year ago. The 2019 kids are going to be sophomores. The recruiting charts are sliding over. I figured it was time. The only guys who I have heard of in the 2019 class are EJ Liddell from Belleville West and Eagles 16U studs Marcedus Leech from Poplar Bluff and James Wiseman from Nashville.

Pistol Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 Kofi Cockburn 6'10, 240 lbs from Christ the King HS in Jamaica. 2 star. Might be the only time we want Cockburn The 2019 class is officially underway! First offer: Kofi Cockburn: C, 6-10, 240, Bronx, NY (Christ the King) – Offers: SLU, VCU. Interest: None. Latest News: SLU and VCU became Cockburn’s first offers in May. Scouting Report: Cockburn has a great build and good touch in the paint. He moved to NYC from Jamaica for the higher level of coaching and competition. There just isn't a ton of information on him so far. He didn't play varsity as a freshman; he emigrated to the US at the semester break, and Christ the King's varsity team was loaded. He will be on the top roster as a sophomore. SLU and VCU are the first to offer and despite no other schools publicly linked to him at this point, he's undoubtedly got a ton of people keeping track. He's gigantic and young, so he's obviously raw, but has shown skill. Very high ceiling here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pistol Posted June 15, 2016 Author Share Posted June 15, 2016 Updates on the 2019 offers: Malik Hall might have reclassified; Bryce Wills definitely did, so he'll be a 2019 name from now on. Vernon Carey is a 6-10, 240-lb. PF from Florida currently ranked #19 in the class of 2019 by ESPN. He has offers from Miami, Florida, and a couple others. He's played extremely well for Nike Team Florida this spring and has a very high ceiling. Maxwell Lorca-Lloyd (6-8, 200) is a raw but skilled forward with a ton of upside. He attends the Northfield Mount Hermon School, where he plays top-level HS competition. He'll play for the Chilean national U18 team. Isaiah Stewart (PF, Rochester, McQuaid Jesuit) is a long, super athletic forward who put up gaudy numbers as a freshman. He only has a few offers at this point (SLU, Tennessee, Wake Forest) but nearby Syracuse is involved, as is every other blueeblood. He's already become a "must-see" local sensation in Rochester and will probably play to sold-out gyms over his last three seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pistol Posted September 22, 2016 Author Share Posted September 22, 2016 2019 offer list updates: Vernon Carey, Jr. is now ranked #5 by ESPN, #8 by Rivals, #12 by Scout, #6 by 247 - it's good that we were one of the early offers, but they continue to mount and his interest list is basically "All". It's going to be tough to stay involved here. Kofi Cockburn is said to have grown another inch, putting his current listing at 6-11, 248. Again, good that we were one of his first two offers but that list will explode. UNLV offered yesterday. Malik Hall transferred from Metea Valley in Naperville to Sunrise Christian Academy in Kansas and officially reclassified as a 2019 recruit. He took an unofficial to Illinois this summer. I hate to see transfers this early, and with a basketball factory like Sunrise, I wouldn't be surprised to see another move before 2019. Aundre Hyatt is another player who started as a 2018 recruit and reclassified despite strong academic performance. He transferred to the Miller School in Virginia. He's up to a dozen offers and ranked in the 30-ish range on rankings that go higher than 25 for the 2019 class. St. John's, Providence, Brown, Virginia, VT, Syracuse, Miami, USC, and VCU have been out to see him this month. Maxwell Lorca-Lloyd played for Chile's U-18 team this summer. He's got offers from SLU, Seton Hall, Penn State, and St. Peter's, and mounting interest. He's raw at 6-10, but he's a top 50 name on Rivals. Isaiah Stewart received offers from Niagara and Buffalo in September, but it's probably too little, too late for those regional programs because he also has offers from SLU, Florida, Tennessee, Syracuse, GW, and Wake Forest. He's 6-8 now, and an absolutely explosive athlete. He was dominant as a freshman, putting up huge numbers at the varsity level. UMass, Maryland, Cal, Brown, Colgate, Iona, were out to check on Bryce Wills this month. He has 14 offers and a lot of high-level interest, as he's another top-30ish name on our offer list. Still no offer from SLU, but it's worth noting that EJ Liddell has been working out with Corey Frazier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistol Posted September 27, 2016 Author Share Posted September 27, 2016 Mario McKinney has had a number of visitors in September: SLU, Xavier, DePaul, Illinois, K-State, Arkansas, Wichita State, and Drake. Mizzou and Bradley have also shown interest. He has been out to DePaul on an unofficial visit while attending Elite Camp there. Like @3star_recruit said in the 2018 thread, McKinney is thought to be the best local guard prospect in the 2019 class and hasn't developed a jumper yet. He's still a big-time scorer who takes it to the rim and loves transition. He distributes the ball well, plays with a ton of energy, and is years ahead of his peers defensively. He's listed at 6-1 or 6-2 and anywhere from 165 to 180. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3star_recruit Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Jett was a power guard who developed a mid-range game. McKinney is a 6'1 165lb frenetic whirlwind who does almost all of his damage going to the basket. He's so good at it he may not even need a jumper at the high school level. There are a number of former college players mentoring him, though. McKinney understands the importance of continuing to develop his perimeter game if he wants to succeed at the next level.
