Well.... Six of their 10 (schools) are the same.

The key is seeing what schools they visit in the fall. Actually, I feel rather confident that we'll receive a visit from both Terrell and Abu (he mentioned something about taking a visit to St. John's a month or two ago).
 
“@AdamZagoria: UCLA, which recently offered Abdul Malik Abu, is expected to watch him Saturday in NYC. Providence, NC State & #stjbb here now watching inAC”
 
This was my first time ever getting a chance to see Abu play, and what a pleasure it was to watch this gifted, physical specimen with a powerful build and high motor. He is a 6-8, super-athletic forward that excels in transition and plays well above the rim. At the same time, he is also a banger who thrives by throwing his body around on the inside, crashing the glass, and doing the dirty work. His best attribute may be his ability to grab a rebound, put it on the floor and start the transition break.

Abu has also proven that he is a natural-born leader and winner, by taking his team to another championship game this past week at Live In A.C. He has almost every school in the country trying to get him to their campus in the fall and whoever gets him will have a heck of player coming in to play for them.

@TheBBallDiary: St Johns Steve Lavin was watching Expressions Elite. Rest of the staff in Kansas City.

Jared Terrell wasn't playing today but Lavin watched Abu. The only other major coaches there was a Providence assistant coach and a UCLA assistant coach.

Seems like Coach is really on Abu. Who is in KC that the rest of the staff is checking out?

Team Scan (NY) is playing in Kansas City. So I'm assuming we're watching Terry Larrier, Cheick Diallo, and Thomas Bryant
 
There is a recent interview with Abu, per Rivals.

Calling Moose....

Rivals might have smartened up. I can't even cut and copy a portion of the article.

- Hasn't been hard for Abu to see Lavin as he's been at nearly every game.
- He appreciates it as they could be watching others but they are showing him a lot of love which means a lot he said.
- Likes us for many reasons.
- Our bigs have a major future which he likes
- We make players his size better which he likes.
- While him and JT have discussed college together its not a must. While he'd love to go to college with him they need to go to schools that fit them both the best.

The university is ST. JOHN'S! :)
 
@NewEraURI_Hoops: Word on the street is that the only way Jared Terrell and Abdul Malik Abu are a package deal is if they both decide on Providence.

I have no clue if the guy is reliable but I figured I would post it
 
@TheRecruitScoop: After narrowing his list to 10 schools last week, 2014 Expressions (MA) PF Abdul Malik-Abu now holds an offer from Louisville.
 
“@HoopDreamsmag: Jared Terrell & Abdul Malik Abu are on the URI campus for an unofficial visit.”
 
“@HoopDreamsmag: Jared Terrell & Abdul Malik Abu are on the URI campus for an unofficial visit.”

Abu doesn't even have them on his final list. What's the point of the visit?

Maybe Terrell just wanted company. I wouldn't read anything into this.
