Class of 2018 SG/SF Jeenathan Williams (NY) to Buffalo

[Francis03]

UPrep basketball's Jeenathan Williams hopes to deliver in Section V sectionals
Big matchup tonight in the Section V semis, UPrep (Jeenathan Williams) vs McQuaid (Isaiah Stewart). Somebody from the staff better be in attendance.

 

[Francis03]

Both studs had good production tonight, but Williams UPrep squad took the W. Will be interesting to see if this is the last game for Stewart at McQuaid?

The young big Jabez had a good game too! He and Williams owned the glass based on the stat sheet. Here is a highlight of Jeenathan

Best player in Rochester. One of the top in the state.

Do you know if any of the staff has been checking on him or been to his games?

No I don't. I wonder if he will still prep after this year.

Gmac was at the Blue Cross arena last night to see him and Stewart

 

[Francis03]

The type of alpha player that this program needs.

Francis, you're going to apply for the open assistant coach position right???

 

[TacoTime75]

Staff already out here making moves

Nah. JB sending me alone to battle cats like Calipari, Coach K, Sean Miller etc wouldn't have been a good look.

I think you're ALREADY working harder on the recruiting trail than some of our coaches have been.

Gerry the lead here it appears...?

Yep. Unless Williams preps out of state, then he has no excuse not to wrap this one up if we really want him down the line.

 

[Deano]

This is from January.

Even more impressed with him this year. Glad to see SU offer. Lets see if the staff put the full court press on him now.

Reminds me of a Louisville type player. +Athlete, good shooter (not great).
Very exciting.

 

[RF2044]

Given our uncertainty at the 3, we can't afford to let a prospect like this get out of our back yard.

Need to get this done. He's better than his ranking.

 

[O-pulse]

I like how he moves and handles himself when taking it to the hoop. He shows good ability to jump stop.
Good looking recruit.

No wonder JB drove his son up to Rochester on Sunday. Kill two birds with one stone.

I love this offer.

Scholarship offer from Syracuse is dream come true for UPrep's Jeenathan Williams

“As a kid I grew up hoping for this and I never thought it’d happen. This is one of my dreams,” said Williams, the 6-foot-6, 190-pound guard who led Rochester’s University Preparatory Charter School for Young Men to an 18-5 record and runner-up in the Section V Class AA tournament. “It’s a very good feeling.”
