BOL update on Pollard:

quote:

Checked in Jeff Andrews, the AAU coach of five-star UA basketball target Devonta Pollard- Andrews said that Pollard is taking his official visit to Georgetown today and tomorrow. He also added that a decision date will be set after the visit is concluded and it's still the final four of Alabama, Georgetown, Missouri, and Texas.

A poster on BOL had this to say, but didn't have a link.


quote:

I read on a basketball forum that San Bernardino Valley JC power foward Tevin Harris (6'8,220) visited Iona last weekend and before that he visited UA (first I'd heard of it). He's from Dallas originally.

It looks like he averaged 9.3 ppg and 5.6 rpg this past season at SBVC and 9 ppg and 5.4 rpg as a freshman.





I'm going to try google and see what I can find.

I just creeped hard people: Tevin Harris ? @TevinHarris5 Just came back from New York yesterday headed to Alabama tomorrow
That was on April 15th

Then yesterday he said this to a girl: Noreen R. ? @Greeneyedlovee @TevinHarris5 yea I figured but why I had to find out about the school you chose through Stanley

Tevin Harris ? @TevinHarris5
@Greeneyedlovee I haven't even signed yet it was just a commit


So he either committed to Alabama or Iona I assume by that.

I youtubed him for highlights, but the only Tevin Harris videos I found were of a guard.


ETA: I'm thinking it was Iona, if it were Bama I think we would have heard by now, don't you?

Our coaches may be keeping it quiet and would announce it after Pollard decides. I don't know one way or the other though.

Tevin Harris

There are two Tevin Harris' out there. One is a guard. The link above is to the PF Tevin Harris. That is his Rivals bio from 2010 when he was in high school. Below is from his current JUCO.

You think it's good, bad or indifferent that Alabama is recruiting him, with regards to Pollard?

Indifferent. We need more post depth even if we get Pollard. I think he's an Iona type player though, not Alabama. I could be wrong and we could be desperate

Nothing wrong with signing a mediocre JUCO player for depth purposes. Even Kentucky had Eloy Vargas.

I agree. They may be better than you thought and help the team out besides just being a body. If they don't pan out, at least they are only there for two years.

I would take him at LSU right, for sure.

Although after he tweeted about going to visit Alabama, he said change of plans and didn't talk about anything here. He may not have visited. It could have been cancelled by us or him.

I'd take him at this point. Good size, high school senior that looks like he's about 32.

Has there been anything said outside of the fact that Pollard's supposed to announce sometime this week?
