teachercd Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Gill has to sit, right? He would be a nice pick up. Rafael could play right away but...might end up just being a body. Quote Link to comment
Haspula Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Gill has to sit, right? He would be a nice pick up. Rafael could play right away but...might end up just being a body. Rafael will still be a massive upgrade over Moses Abraham Quote Link to comment

Hedley Lamarr Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Is that good or bad for us? Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted April 21, 2015 Author Share Posted April 21, 2015 I was guessing he's visiting the places that he prefers. Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Pitt has a good rep with big men...it also might be close to his location that he is currently at Quote Link to comment
BIG ERN Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 We are having an offical visit from Anton Gill - transfer guard from Louisville next month. http://sports.yahoo.com/tcu/basketball/recruiting/player-Anton-Gill-112321 Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I'm interested in knowing how players like this first come in contact with schools like Nebraska. To me there are two distinct levels in basketball recruiting. There are your "A" schools that if a top recruit gets the chance to go to....they go. That includes, Duke, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisville...etc. Then, there are those schools that if the recruit doesn't work out at those "A" schools, or that school isn't what that recruit thought once there, they look to transfer to a "B" school. Those include schools like Wisconsin, ISU, Creighton and now Nebraska. At these schools, they will play in front of large crowds in competitive conferences and get their school paid for and if the stars all align, they can win at a high level like what Wisconsin did this year. But, how does a player at Louisville, get contacted by Nebraska if they are already enrolled at Louisville but want to transfer? I'm pretty sure players are off limits to outside coaches. Would the recruit contact Nebraska? Would the Louisville coaching staff contact Nebraska to see if they are interested? Is it totally 100% up to the recruit to reach out? Quote Link to comment

Once they are released from their scholarship, they can be contacted by any school. This happens faster today, due to social media. Quote Link to comment
wiuhusker Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 We are having an offical visit from Anton Gill - transfer guard from Louisville next month. http://sports.yahoo.com/tcu/basketball/recruiting/player-Anton-Gill-112321 I would be shocked if Anton ends up here. Only reason I say that is that Akoy and him were basically best friends at Louisville. Wouldn't surprise me one bit to see those 2 re-join at Georgetown. I know Anton has already been there once not sure if he has another visit lined up or not. Quote Link to comment

Mavric Posted April 25, 2015 Author Share Posted April 25, 2015 Seems Gill is down to Georgetown and us. He's already visited Georgetown and he isn't planning any other visits right now. Will have to sit out next year then have two years to play. Seems to be close to Akoy Agau and talked to him about Nebraska. Of course, Agau is at Georgetown. Quote Link to comment
