Elite 2022 Shooting Guard Rylan Griffen to Decide in November

Griffen will take his last visit to Alabama in October before coming up with a decision.


Rylan Griffen figured that as his recruitment process began to wind down, the coaches recruiting him would turn up the heat trying to sway his decision.

What he didn’t account for was the recruiting onslaught from the committed recruits at the schools he’s considering.

“Yeah, that’s different,” Griffen said.

The latest peer turned recruiter extraordinaire? IMG Academy (Bradenton, Fla.) point guard Jaden Bradley, one of the top floor generals in the country who recently committed to Alabama.

“He definitely wants me to make the move over there with him,” Griffen said. “That’s actually pretty cool that he started to hit me up because it shows me that I’m really wanted over there.”

The full-court recruitment press is understandable, Griffen followed up a dominant junior season at Richardson (Texas) – 22 points, five rebounds and four assists a game – with an even more impressive showing for Team Trae Young – 17 points, four rebounds and three assists a game – on the grueling adidas 3SSB.

“I just had the mentality to go hard all summer,” Griffen said. “I felt like I played well, but I feel like I could’ve played even better.”

Colleges are lining up to reap the benefits of that insatiable mentality.

Griffin has already taken visits to Oklahoma, Kansas State, Oklahoma State, Georgia and N.C. State. He’s scheduled to take a visit to Alabama later this month.

“That’s the last one for me,” said Griffen, who’s also considering Auburn, Cal, Arizona State and Kansas. “No more.”

Griffen’s silver lining to the stress that is the latter stages of the recruitment process is that he’s clear on what he wants in a program.

“Me and my assistant coach at school talk about this stuff all the time,” Griffen said. “I want a family atmosphere, somewhere that I can play early and somewhere where I’ll get better. I want a staff that tells me what I need to work on, not just things I’m good at.”

As for a timeline for his decision, Griffen said he wants to have things finalized around the start of his season in mid-November.

“I’m looking forward to the last visit to Alabama, but after that it’s all about weighing things out,” Griffen said. “I know it’s gonna be a tough one because I’ve got a lot of great options and I’m close to the coaches, but I can only pick one school. That might be hard for some people, but not for me. I feel like God will show me where I need to be.”

If we’re his last visit and we’re already seen to be in a good spot with him, I really like our chances

Agreed and I really like seeing that Jaden Bradley has become a big recruiter for us.

He has alopecia that started several years ago. That would be tough as hell, to lose almost all the hairs on your body, right when you're almost a teenager. Credit to him to saying frick it and working hard.

He looks like a clone of Charlie Villanueva, who also has alopecia.

Alabama, Auburn, and Houston, for Jarace Walker, who now cancelled his visit to Texas for this weekend. I’d presume a decision is on the mend with three finalists in the picture — all in which he visited with.

According to my guy @ColbyGHoops, the talented prospect (Walker), will visit Houston on the 29th and then is expected to make a decision.

I always appreciate any tidbits I can get, but whatever happened to the English language? He's repairing a decision between the finalists, I guess.

Anyway, that sounds positive for us, I think.

New Jacks: Get to know class of 2024 forward Trentyn Flowers

Welcome to New Jacks where we introduce some of the top underclassmen in the country to our 247Sports audience. Today, we would like to introduce class of 2024 forward Trentyn Flowers .

THE DETAILS

“Trentyn has versatility and is able to play both guard positions and the forward spots. He can guard multiple positions and just adds a lot to the table the way does so many things.

“I plan on playing him all over the court. He'll play the one through four. He rebounds, is disruptive, plays with high energy, and overall just plays hard so that's how we're going to use him.”

“He's really gotten better with his pace and disregarding the first initial defender. WIth him I know that we really focussed on getting his pace and body better. He's really dedicated himself to the weight room and it'll show in the coming years.”

“We're going to continue to work on everything as his body changes and matures. I think those two things will take him to another level on the basketball court,” his high school coach Arkell Bruce said.”

COLLEGE ATTENTION

Though he's only beginning his sophomore year, Flowers already has offers from Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Illinois among others .

WHY HE HAS OUR ATTENTION

Flowers made it onto our radar from a trusted source telling us to check him out. He has good size, length and versatility at 6-foot-7 and can shoot the ball with efficiency. Flowers can play multiple positions and has tons of upside on both sides of the ball. While it's still early in his development he's a player to watch in the class of 2024.
