Adam Zagoria updates us on the JayVaughn Pinkston recruitment, which has reached a crucial stage. Pinkston just had an in-home visit from Bobby Gonzalez and the Seton Hall staff last night, and according to Pinkston’s mother, the visit went well.
Pinkston is lining up visits to St. John’s Red Storm Tip-Off on October 22nd, as well as Villanova’s Hoops Mania the following day. Pinkston may also visit for Tennessee’s exhibition game against North Alabama on October 31st (don’t miss out of Halloween Jay!).
Kimani Young, Pinkston’s mentor, has previously stated that Pinkston will most likely sign with a school in the spring, but now, plans may be changing.
“It’s still up in the air whether he’s going to sign early or sign late,” Young said. “We have to talk. He’s just not 100 percent sure.”
…So, add another to the list for Hoops Mania…I’m hoping that Mike Gilchrist will also decide to make the short trip for the event…should be quite the spectacle coming off a Final Four season…
