True, but I mostly meant that 24 hours prior to right now, that list had 7 names, not 10.

I'll steal part of a line from Mr. Allen Cutler:

It's a great day to be a Bearcat Fan!

@AdamZagoria
Mustapha Heron was going to visit St. John's today but can't b/c no unofficials are allowed, source tells @SNYtv. May visit in August.

^Does landing Cumberland mean we'll take ourselves out of the running on him and Alkins?

No. Coaching staff would like to add another wing to the class and with a player of Alkins ability you never take yourself out of the running. It also helps that Mick and company believe they are in really good standing with him.

I was also wondering if Cumberland and Evans would kill our chances with these guys.

@JonRothstein
Wisconsin, Cincinnati, and why Georgia Tech could be a bubble team in 2016. Observations @CBSSports http://t.co/ww1bJV2luf

2. Cincinnati is always “moving the chains” in recruiting

The Bearcats don’t always target or land players who are ranked in the Top 50 of the recruiting services, but that hasn’t inhibited their ability to remain one of the most consistent programs in college basketball. Under Mick Cronin, Cincinnati has advanced to five consecutive NCAA Tournaments and one of the main reasons why is how effectively it recruits on an annual basis. Very rarely will the Bearcats waste time on a prospect because it looks sexy on social media or because he has a number next to his name on a list. This past week was a perfect example. Cincinnati landed three commitments in less than 24-hours from three players -- Nysier Brooks (2016 big man), Kyle Washington (NC State transfer), and Jarron Cumberland (2016 wing) -- who all fit the Bearcat mold. Brooks and Cumberland are two players who look like they may be more likely to a defensive end than a basketball player, while Washington is a former Top-60 recruit who will likely replace Octavius Ellis in Cincinnati’s starting lineup during the 2016-17 season. Recruiting isn’t about who you’re involved with, it’s about who you get. Not many programs understand that better than Cincinnati.

Are we putting a priority on Corprew, Xavier Green, or Alston Davis?

I think it just depends who we can get on campus first. You can throw Richard Washington in there too.

of the four (including richard Washington who nts mentioned) I would prioritize corprew and green over Washington and Davis.
Heres my take on the guys:

Corprew: looks strong and tough, definitely a cronin type player. Really reminds me of a dion Dixon. At 6'5'' that gives him a lot of versatility, especially with his ball handling skills. Ive seen sites list him from 1 through 3...as he can handle like a point but has the the strength and athleticism to be a three. Explosive athlete i think he would be a great slasher and great fit as a bearcat..also would be a good defender.

Xavier Green: just a smooth scorer, can shoot drive and handle the ball, this guy would be a steal at 6'6". After he gets into the weight room hes going to be tough to stop

Davis: Looks a little raw offensively. definitely lengthy and athletic and seems to be a good defender but needs to work on ball handling especially at 6'5"

Washington: After looking into him a little just seems like a Wake Forest lean

But solid player

---Just my opinion but i think Corprew or green will be our next commit
