BU Recruit 2011- Quinton Chievous

[tornado]

Chievous -- who still remains unrated by many services (scout.com. Rivals, etc) -- verbals to Cuonzo Martin & Tennessee.

This article quotes Tom Les, his coach...
"..Chievous cited Tennessee's coaching staff, including a pre-existing
relationship with new Vols' assistant Tracy Webster...along with the chance
to play on a big conference stage

In the end though, Chievous' high school coach at Notre Dame, Tom Les, felt
Martin pushed the Vols' over the top..... he hadn't decided yet until this
morning," Les said of the decision. "I think the difference is that he felt a real
connection with coach Martin. Coach Martin had contacted us about Quinton
when he was at Missouri State."

Les feels that Tennessee is getting a player whose best basketball is ahead
of him.

"He never got out in the summers and he really didn't play much AAU ball so
he wasn't really on a lot of people's radar the way he might have been," Les
said. "As our season went on and we improved, we went 22-9, he started
getting some attention that he deserved.

"He's a very explosive player. I think what people will like about his game is
his athletic ability and explosiveness."

That explosiveness led to Chievous averaging 22 points and 11 rebounds as a
senior."

[Da Coach]

Quinton Chievous has decided to transfer to Hampton University.

In case people missed this first round result from the NCAA last night, Hampton beat Manhattan, and will advance to meet #1 seed Kentucky on Thursday night. Quentin Chevious had a great game for Hampton, scoring 15 points, and 13 rebounds, and playing great defense to lead Hampton to the win. Unfortunately, he suffered an ankle injury late in the game and did not play the last couple minutes.
He had a couple highlight dunks that can be seen in the video here on ESPN-

He is former Bradley recruit. He initially went to play for Cuonzo Martin at Tennessee. He redshirted his first year, then stayed 2 more seasons, but played very little. Then he transferred to Hampton where he played this season, and averaged 10.3 ppg and 6.4 rpg.

Chievous was a Bradley recruit who played at Notre Dame HS for Tom Led.
Bradley was in on him but he (no surprise) chose the offer from Tennessee.
