TOP 100 PROSPECTS IN 2019 CLASS

After combing the area for several weeks now, while also relying on credible sources, I’m thinking I just may have the necessary cues now to have some accuracy with identifying the top prospects in this group. Off the availability board is the consensus No. 2 player Francis Okoro who committed to Oregon a few months ago. No. 5 prospect Markese Jacobs pledged to Kansas more than a year ago, and KU has not backed-out amid to reports. Under-the-radar post-man Alex Timmerman from Crystal Lake Central gave a verbal to Bucknell recently. We are going to go slow with judging this group collectively, we saw some kids recently that I feel may eventually blossom in the right setting, we’re hopeful…

NOTE: Personally, I have 3 or 4 favorites in this class, but they aren’t rated as a true indicator of that. Fred Cleveland & Jaheim Holden, both should use Eastern Illinois Cornell Johnston as a measuring reference to approach any Division One aspirations. Both youngsters are special players.
