On Angel Reese’s podcast, Kiyan said on the 10/31 episode that his final three is Auburn, USC and SU. He will announce in two weeks.

Angel Reese said that when she was being recruited, SU was one of her favorite visits.

She predicts he will choose SU.

Legggoooooo

He'll most probably go SU, but there have been shockers in
the past.

What recruit was the most surprising/disappointing when he went
somewhere else?

There were several, but I have to choose Foyle. Never saw him going
to Colgate, even with the close family ties.

Tobias Harris going to Tennessee was a real shocker and I remember it hurting real bad at the time.

My choice as well. Julius Hodge is up there but Hakim Warrick was a nice consolation prize.

Interesting that I read (and I know that it doesn’t matter) that he doesn’t have a scholarship offer from Auburn. This was relatively recent article.

Luther "Ticky" Burden. But recruiting was a lot different back then. Would love to hear the real story on how he ended up at Utah, and I believe averaged 26ppg.

Thomas Bryant and Isaiah Stewart affirmed SU had fallen off the desirable college hoop destinations. I remember the recruits family visiting Boeheims home and Juli baking birthday cake.

Really hit home how local talent was not interested.

Bryant's Mom wanted him to come here.

Bryant wanted to get as far away from Mom as he could.

So he ran into the loving arms of Tom Crean.

Yes. But didn't he end up playing at Auburn Correctional?

Yup. Demons are a nasty thing.

Kenny

I agree Kenny Anderson hurt, but Julius Hodge was a shocker as well.Turned out well with Hakim instead if Julius, but Kenny would have been the perfect asset for the team at that point in time.

 

[atlanticuse]

This thread brought back a lot of memories
We need a supporting cast to make KA succeed

That was a true shame. I think going to SU would have changed his life.

I remember when Tyus Battle went to Michigan on a visit and then committed. I had that feeling that I’m done following recruiting. We had spurned Jamal Murray in favor of Tyus (at least that’s how I understood it), and now were left hanging. We also kept Kevin Huerter on the back burner during that recruitment wanting him to prep a year. Don’t know if either of those guys would have chosen Orange, but those were interesting times. When Tyus (and Gary his dad) flipped his commitment to us, it was a key recruiting win.
