 Got to see him play tonight as his team lost in OT. He got the start but did not play towards the end of the game or in OT. Didn't play great but showed some serious flashes. He is built and bouncy. Beginning of the game he hit off a defender with a mean crossover that almost made him fall and was about to throw it down on their big man until he felt the contact and finished with a layup. Outstanding body control to complement his strength & athleticism. Has a real nice pull up game set up by his crafty handles. 3 point range seemed very inconsistent but once again tough to tell when he only played 20 minutes or so. Saw some pride with him on the defense of end of the floor. Gets in a stance and competes when guarding his man. Also did a solid job talking on defense which unfortunately is rare at that level. Looks like he could grow but wasn't that tall, stood next to him and was not much taller then myself. 6'2, 6'3 maybe. Has alot of ability, wish I could of saw more then him.


His teammate Noah Vonleh is going to really special. Would be perfect in our system and I really hope Lavin gets after him. 6'9 long, athletic, great defender and has some perimeter skill. Sunk a few 3's which really helped his team in spacing the floor. Big time player

My friend knows the both of them & trains with them in summer. Really raved about the both of them as talents but also as work ethic. He is a smart person too, doesn't just complement anyone's ability. I'm gonna have to tell him to send them to STJ if Lavin makes them priorities in 2014
 
Per NBE Basketball....

Jared Terrell (2014 SG) – Terrell’s newest scholarship offer came from Connecticut to join his impressive list including Cincinnati, Iowa, Iowa State, Rutgers, Miami, Florida, Providence, Boston College and St. John’s. He said that he’s been in contact with everyone on that list since June 15th acknowledging Cincinnati as the school that’s been coming at him the hardest in that time. In addition to these offers, Terrell has heard from the Kansas staff recently as well. They have yet to extend a scholarship offer but are planning to watch Terrell in July and are actively recruiting him. He declined to mention any favorites in his recruitment at this time stating that it’s way too early to tell. Terrell plans to sit down with his parents after the AAU season and discuss potentially trimming his list but for now he is still adding offers, not narrowing things down.

Terrell & Abu


Two of the top players in the Class of 2014 picked up high-major offers after their performances at the Boo Williams Nike EYBL stop this weekeend.

Jared Terrell, a 6-foot-4 shooting guard from Brewster (N.H.) Academy, added offers from Kansas and Florida, according to his Expressions Elite coach Tyron Boswell.

Abdul-Malik Abu, a 6-7 power forward from Kimball (N.H.) Union, added offers from Kansas, N.C. State and Texas.

Boswell said the two players have talked about playing together in college and various schools have offered both players, including Florida, Kansas, UConn, St. John’s, Providence, Marquette and URI.

“That’s their goal,” Boswell said. “The goal is to try to play together if it works out for them both. If not, they’ll do what’s in the best interest of each of them.”

As for Terrell, Boswell said his year at Brewster has really helped him develop his game.

“He gained a lot from being up at Brewster and playing against high-major Division 1 guys every night,” he said.

“Brewster is a stomping ground for high-level kids to improve their skills and he’s playing against those guys and in one of the best leagues in the country. He’s taking the EYBL by storm, shooting efficiently, getting to the rim. From being at Brewster as well, he’s working on his defensive skills as a lockdown defender.”

As for Abu, Boswell said: “He has started to scratch the surface of where he can be. He’s hitting the 3-pointer consistently as well as the mid-range shot. He’s virtually unguardable one-on-one if you don’t double-team him.

“He’s getting compared to pro guys.”

Terrell & Abu

At the Mary Kline Classic on Sunday night at Philadelphia University, high school players from all over the country invaded the East Falls section of Philadelphia to help raise money for cancer research. Many of these players only existed as only YouTube highlight videos or names on a list of top recruits in the country. Now, that CoBL got to take a look at them, here’s a few thoughts and recruiting tidbids on a pair of the MKC underclassmen.

(For more recruiting note from the Mary Kline Classic, read Andrew Koob’s notebook)

Look out below
After posting four points and four rebounds in the underclassmen game, Jamar Ergas (2015 G/22 Ft. Academy, Ky.) absolutely brought the house down during the slam dunk contest. Busting out a a 360 through-the-legs and using humans as props to leap over and throw down, Ergas displayed his leaping and finishing ability, all after playing in a 40-minute game against top-level competition.

The 6-foot-4 Canadian import attends 22 Feet Academy, a basketball academy that was located in Eastern Kentucky, but has now moved to Greenville, South Carolina. Playing alongside some top talent from around the globe, including Illinois State commit MiKyle McIntosh, Ergas took on the role of facilitator.

“When I get in the lane I am looking to pass. This year I have been more of a distributor because we had MiKyle McIntosh as our scorer to fill that role. I got used to that roll of trying to get other guys involved. I play athletic and I play hard,” Ergas told CoBL after his Team Inspiraation 119-114 win over Team Bravery in the underclassmen game.

As of now, Ergas only has one offer, but on the athleticism he showed in the dunk contest alone, those will begin to pile up, as he has been visiting some high major schools.

“I only have one offer, and that is Western Kentucky. Next year should be more as I talk to more schools. I’ve been on unofficial visits to NC State, UNC and Wake Forest. I really like the University of Florida, I like the warm, southern schools.”

Ergas also mentioned Kentucky and Ohio State as expressing interest. Originally a native of Toronto, it is no surprise schools with warmer climates appeal to him.

Boston Buddies, package deal?
Teammates on the Expressions Elite AAU squad based out of Boston, Jared Terrell (2014 G/Brewster Academy) and Abdul-Malik Abu (2015 F/Kimball Union Academy) were both very tough checks in the Mary Kline Classic on Sunday night.

Terrell, a 6-3 slasher from Brewster Academy (NH) resembling more of a linebacker, was a threat to put back any missed shots on offense with his explosive leaping ability. He was also a real threat coming off ball screens, with the ability to knock down a three, or use his strong frame to attack the lane. His pull up jumper is very polished, as he gets it off quickly.

While Abu is a 6-7 forward out of Kimball Union Academy (NH) with some really nice touch on his smooth turnaround jumper, who can also defend the interior well, handle the ball a little bit, and spot him from distance when his feet are set. In the Underclassmen Game, Abu had 18 points and eight rebounds.

“I am a slasher, an attacker. A mid-range defender, and most of all a hard defender,” Terrell said. ”I did play football when I was younger, and I do lift a lot now. The strength has stayed with me.”

Both players said they had basically the same list of schools coming after them, with offers from Kansas, Providence, Boston College, Florida, Kansas State and Cincinnati, and ESPN and other outlets have them both holding offers from Temple as well. The guard/forward duo expressed interest in playing together in college as a package deal, which would be enormous to whatever school they hypotheticlality would both commit to, but as of now they both claim their recruiting is “wide open.”

“We’d like to play together if it works, definitely. But, if there is a better fit for him somewhere else or a better fit for me, we’ll go with that,” Abu said.

"Jared Terrell – 2014 – He may have shown up late, but once Terrell arrived he was his typical self physically punishing any defender that was covering him. He made high level plays both in transition and in the half court, and was just too strong for almost any guard at the event to cover. "

Hopefully the staff is present because we need to keep this door open based on Whitehead's recruitment.

Peach Jam:

@jeffborzello: I'm not sold on Jared Terrell's ability to go left, but he's got his offense going today. Jumpers, bullying defenders on dribble-drives.

@RyanJamesMN: Expressions is giving Jared Terrell high ball screens and he's physically scoring in all ways after getting the space #PEACHJAM

@RyanJamesMN: Expressions up 52-38 with 9:29 to go. Jared Terrell is doing what he wants to Pulley, as is Idris Tuqque. #PEACHJAM
 
Nice option if we don't get Whitehead.

“@QSTJHoops: Recruiting update: Brewster's Jared Terrell receives offer from Red Storm. #stjbb #sjubbhttp://sbn.to/14dD7xt

Agree, he'd be a nice option, if Whitehead doesn't end up with us.

There is also the possibility of Abu going to the same school as Terrell.
 
Jared Terrell said he holds scholarship offers from Connecticut, Florida, St. John’s, Cincinnati, Kansas, Boston College, Oklahoma State, and Rhode Island. He noted that a lot of the schools in the Big Ten and ACC have offered. Terrell added that UCLA is showing some interest in him as well, but has yet to offer. The class of 2014 prospect has no favorites and said no one is recruiting him any harder than the rest.
Terrell has visited UConn, Boston College and Providence unofficially. As far as additional visits are concerned, Terrell said, “[I am] waiting for the summer to take any officials,” adding that he has none planned. Terrell said that location will not be a factor for him. He also has no timetable for a commitment, saying, “I just want to find the right place. I don’t want to rush it.”
