BU recruit- Class of 2015- Luwane Pipkins

[Da Coach]

Bradley is also recruiting Luwane Pipkins of Chicago Bogan High School, and Coach Ford offered a scholarship after our staff watched him play for the Meanstreets AAU team at the Peach Jam in South Carolina this past weekend (July 12-13).
Pipkins is a 5'10", 155 pound guard who is a high scoring point guard. He also has an offer from UIC-

Just back from Vegas and noticed this article about Pipkins. It says that currently Bradley is recruiting him the hardest.

LTF when I first read this I was concerned that Pipkins got in some trouble, but after reading the article I see that it was just a typo. Bradley is recruiting him hardest. Sounds like a promising kid, but a lot of time left.

 

[LongTimeFan]

Whoops. Sorry for the misstatement. It was late after driving for 4.5 hours back from Vegas. Darn spell correction.

It would be nice to get a verbal from this guy asap

As we know from experience verbals, especially this early, do not mean a lot. However, I will admit it would be nice to get a verbal.

seriously - Groce - leave the mid-major kids alone, you have enough already

 

[LongTimeFan]

Nice article on Pipkins. It does mention Bradley. However, if majors are interested, it is doubtful he would end up at Bradley.

Luwane Pipkins hit 9-for-9 on 3-pointers and scored 45 pts last night - he's kinda blowing up

BTW - there's another kid mentioned in that article...
a PF on Chicago n U-High named Max Rothschold who gets little statewide press but the kid definitely is worth a look..

He's a strong 6-8, scored 25 points/13 rebs, kept U-High within a few points right to the end, and has consistently put up big numbers (had 32 pts/16 reb in Regional title game) and carried his team despite having to do a lot of it himself.

We've probably already lost on the kid since he's now planning to go to prep school (he's Illinois Wolves) - like Gabe Levin did (who is at LMU where their coach was just fired so may be on the market but we could have had for the asking) - but I think he'll be a strong PF in college

Good article about BU recruit Luwane Pipkins

[Da Coach]

BU recruit Luwane Pipkins, who many were thinking may be a high major recruit before it's all over, ended his recruiting and committed to UMass tonight.

 

[LongTimeFan]

Ouch. I am surprised he ended his recruiting this early.
