Class of 2022 G Elijah Fisher (Canada) Offered

"Already ranked as one of the top 25 players in the class of 2023, Canadian wing Elijah Fisher had himself a strong night. A solidly built 6-foot-6 slasher who excels in transition, Fisher was relentless attacking the basket for Elite 6 as they scored a comeback win over the Arkansas Hawks. Fisher said that his visit to Texas Tech is the only one so far and didn’t address rumblings that he could end up a 2022 dude. He had Creighton’s Greg McDermott and assistants from Auburn, Arizona and many others in the building."

So…he wouldn’t take minutes from Joe?

Joe likely won’t be here. We also likely have a small class in 23 because we just took 6 guys.

There is talk of him reclassifying to 2022.

Does anybody know if SU is actively recruiting Elijah? He used to mention the Orange in interviews but hasn't for quite some time.

I’d take him as a small forward.

 

[cuseallday]

I just saw an interview with Fisher where he said that he's not hearing from a lot of schools these days. I know that if he reclassified to 2022, that assumably wouldn't work for SU, but do any of you all know if the Orange still talks to him regarding the 2023 cycle? Just seems strange that SU wouldn't pursue this guy, given that the 'Cuse has gotten guys from Canada in recent years. He had a ridiculous dunk over the weekend during the live period.

We have never gotten a Grassroots Canada/Ro Russell prospect. That won’t change with Fisher. Move along.

 

[cuseallday]

Thanks for sharing! So is SU not recruiting him then? That's what I am most curious about.

Bummer. Are there any players from Canada in the class of 2023 that we do have a legit shot of landing?

All signs point to the Red Raiders.

Remember when we used to regularly land athletic freak prospects from the northeast? Now they go to, lol, Texas Tech, because, you know, Canada to Texas is such a no-brainer. Recruiting makes no sense.

Why is this the case? Do Ro Russell and JB have some beef?

Just looking at the stats, rough year for him

Probably should’ve stayed in 23 instead of reclassifying to 22

Hoping Coach Autry focuses more on Canadian recruits. Lots of talent not far away. We need to do better recruiting this area.

Hmmmmm

Welcome to your number 1 priority recruit for 2023 folks. All the eggs = this basket

Looks like Red may need to make a phone call

 

[Biaxtar]

I said he might transfer. It would be a solid get.
