DAN JENNINGS RECRUITING UPDATE

June 15, 2008 by · 4 Comments

One of the top centers in the Class of 2009 is Dan Jennings of Staten Island, N.Y. The 6’9 Jennings says he has offers from Marquette, DePaul, Louisville, Minnesota, Memphis, Oklahoma State, Xavier, St. John’s, Rutgers and Seton Hall.

At one point Pittsburgh was one of his favorites, but when assistant coach Orlando Antigua left for Memphis, “I haven’t got a real big call yet (from Pitt).”

Louisville has been calling often,” he added. “St. John’s been calling me. Minnesota been calling me.”

Jennings said he wants to “take my time during the process.”

“I’m not going to rush it. I”m just going to take my time.”

Jennings spent last season at national prep powerhouse Oak Hill Academy in Mouth of Wilson, Va., but will prep a fifth year next season.

“I’m thinking about Brewster (N.H.) Academy or South Kent (Conn.),” he said. “I’m not sure yet. I’m going to look at the schools and see.”

South Kent will also likely add 6’6 former St. Raymond’s of the Bronx standout Kevin Parrom, who is considering Marquette, St. John’s, Rutgers, South Carolina, Pittsburgh, Providence, Clemson and Rhode Island. He has been to Rutgers and St. John’s unofficially.

The Connecticut school is also bringing in 6’5 Mike Burwell, a first-team All-State selection from Cardinal McCarrick High in New Jersey. Michigan and Indiana are recruiting him the hardest, as well as South Florida, UMass and UCLA, his high school coach said.
