The team last year missed this type of edge, take no prisoners attitude. Glad to see Kris healthy and playing again.

Jayden Epps Blowing up in AAU Scene

Providence has an absolute sniper in Jayden Epps coming in next season… #PhenomHoops@Coach_Rick57 @colbylewis20 @POBScout @JeffreyBendel_ @Phenom_Hoops @ty1ewis pic.twitter.com/TmS7KprVbr

By all accounts, Epps is torching the AAU scene. He is currently ranked anywhere from the 50 – 150 range on recruiting websites. I anticipate he becomes a unanimous top 50 recruit when final rankings are completed.

“He’ll be a star at Providence” – Epps takeaway. Look for him to become a consensus 4 star, top 50 type recruit in whichever class he ends up in

Providence offered the 20222 shooting guard. The Illinois native is seeing his recruitment blow up.

The NJ 2022 wing has a quiet recruitment thus far, but this is a smart offer to get in early.

UCONN is the perceived favorite here, but Providence is fighting to win the commitment of the 2022 big man.
