2010 PG prospect Kyrie Irving of powerhouse St. Patrick’s High School is definitely a name to keep an eye on. The talented junior is part of a back-court that currently features North Carolina-bound Dexter Strickland and super sophomore Michael Gilchirst.
Adam Zagoria of ZagsBlog provides a recruiting update (bottom of page) via Coach Kevin Boyle that bodes well for Villanova. Iriving currently has a Top 3 of Rutgers, Seton Hall and Villanova.
“Kyrie’s got a wide range of interest,” he said. “I think there is the
chance that Seton Hall or Rutgers could get him to stay in town. Kyrie
has also shown interest in Villanova. There’s a good chance he could
stay in the East. He’s just really, really good.
It’s no secret that Villanova needs to recruit some PG’s in the future. People love to talk about the frontcourt depth issues but getting players who can handle the rock is equally important. Irving, who stands 6′2″, is definitely at the top of Villanova’s list.
…Speaking of recruiting, I changed around the format of the Recruiting Page so there are some pictures of our future Wildcats…still working on the format of this site so more changes will be coming soon…
