Class of 2025 SG Kiyan Anthony (NY) Offered [Announcing 11/15 7 PM]

[Capt. Tuttle]

My question/wonder is IF a certain son was in town and it was kept quiet, could it be for some kind of “filming” purposes, such as for a commitment video?

Yes. Also no.

Guess we’re going to find out.












Hopefully, maybe?

Well, I was just reading about Ace Bailey and Rutgers and he committed there during one of his visits two years ago after Rutgers had a thrilling home win over Ohio State. He was a top 10 Player and didn’t drag out his recruitment and decided terrible Rutgers (gross) was where he wanted to be and committed after the game. We used to get guys like this ALL the freakin time, especially landing them before they really blew up (see Jonny Flynn, MCW, Tyler Lydon and Malachi Richardson). When are we gonna get one of those kind of commitments again? I was hoping Constanza might be one. This madness with recruitments dragging on and on has become annoying and it’s made me less and less interested in following high school recruiting, especially when I hear more and more schools entering the picture (see: Abaev). That said, it was fun landing ninja commitments that came out of the blue recently like Petar, Womack and Luke Fennell. But all those guys were super under the radar.

"This madness with recruitments dragging on and on has become annoying"

Annoying for you, but why does it matter if a kid is taking his time to make the right decision for him? Especially now that there's another factor with NIL on the table that can set them up for life?

Also, the Petar/Womack/Fennell commitments might have dragged on but we just weren't privy to all the details.

He wasn’t.

I think getting into the NCAA field with consistency again will help. But, we just did get two guys. Maybe they’re about to “really blow up,” like the names you cited.

Might be old news but NBA trainer Chris Brickley (has trained/is training Kiyan) was recently on the PMT podcast and said he thinks Kiyan will commit to Cuse.

Not earth shattering but thought I’d share. Sorry if already posted.

 

[Lukeyloo]

Annoying for you, but why does it matter if a kid is taking his time to make the right decision for him?

Because Cuse is obviously the best and only correct decision! Why drag it out?!

I think the fact that Hurley, Cal, etc aren’t involved hints at the fact they saw this as over early.

 

[hoopsupstate]

Hurley just signed a player from Australia from the same team as our guy. 6’6’ three point shooter.

Neil has an article on Inside the Loud House stating that Kiyan will be announcing soon. I believe he wants to announce before his high school season begins in late November. Countdown to Cuse begins! Hopefully, it will be in several days, but for drama and attention, my assumption is that it will take place at or on the day of the SU v Texas game at the Barclay Center (November 21st).

I am curious how he will end up announcing. Will he announce a decision date prior? Will he randomly drop a video on Twitter? Would he do it on TV in some capacity?

It's a terrific question, I've been wondering as well, and I candidly don't know. He could certainly drop a decision date beforehand, or just commit out of the blue, so to speak. I'll keep my ear to the ground, buddy!

Was it Quincy or Oshae that had their commitment during the TSN broadcast (Rautins on the call) of a raptors game

That is why I am thinking the SU v Texas game in Brooklyn at the Barclay Center. That would be a cool halftime interview/announcement.

 

[SUOrangeSU]

The plan was for him to sign early so this all lines up. I really could see him doing it at a Knicks game.

Home games in Nov 8th vs Bucks (big audience for that), Nov 13 vs the Bulls, Nov 15 and 17th vs the Nets and last on the 18th vs the Wiz

You really think an NBA broadcast would take time out for a HS player to announce his college?

That's the son of an NBA top 75 guy?

Given what we're seeing with Bronny?

Yes.

Oshae Brissett announced for us at halftime of a Raptors game.

Yes.

On what NBA game did they broadcast Bronny’s commitment? It’s possible I missed it.
I think it would be very cool, and would be a real tribute to Melonie that were to happen.

 

[SmilinBob]

I'm hearing that Jobe will do a magic box trick and while they are playing final countdown Kiayn will come out in a Syracuse shirt.

Oh, cool cool, you're doing that stupid lawyer thing where you can't actually apply a principle of thinking unless there's a perfectly matched parallel and precedent to compare it to, and believe that makes you right, but YOU'RE IN MY COURT ROOM NOW AND I KNOW WHAT I'M ABOUT SON, OVERRULED

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.
