Kane Goes Hall (Maybe)

Filed under: Basketball,Recruiting — Chas @ 9:45 pm

DeAndre Kane has apparently, perhaps, maybe committed to Seton Hall.

Or maybe he just had a nice time.

“He did say he liked it very much but he said he didn’t commit,” Patterson (NC) SChool coach Chris Chaney just told me by phone.

Seton Hall and Bobby Gonzalez has had a run of this lately. Leaking or someone just plain jumping the gun on a commit. It is making people a little gun-shy.

I’ve also read news of a new Patterson School player’s verbal to the Pirates, but after the reneged/renounced verbals of Cliff Dixon, Chris Turner and Charles Okwandu, I’m going to hold off naming names and making assessments until I get some evidence that this is more solid.

I admit, with other reliable sources saying it, it might be so. And if Kane wants to be assured of early playing time he would be better off at somewhere like Seton Hall that is completely undermanned. To say nothing of  a program definitely having plenty of open scholarships. At the same time, the one thing I haven’t read is any quote attributed to Kane himself saying that he committed.

So, we’ll see.





Dokish has some very interesting things to say about this, to say the least.

Kane’s a thug. If he wants to play for a lame team like Seton Hall, let him. Pitt’s going to be 4-deep at the 2-guard position next year anyway. Peace D.K.

I’ve heard the same stuff about Kane being a thug, but I’ve also heard he’s a helluva player (and this is from guys that have played against him.)

I’m pretty worried about the backcourt next year. Don’t see how Dixon/Gibbs/Woodall/Patterson make up a Big East set of guards…….

Mark, pretty informative article from Chris Dokish – thanks.

Hugh, I would expect Dixon, Gibbs, Woodall to all be improved with a year under their belt. None of these were 4-star blue-chippers but all have talent. Also, and this may be more hope than reality, maybe Wannamaker finally approaches his potential — he shows flashes but just seems to be out of control many times especially on the break — haven’t given up on him yet

Hello there,
I am Peter Robert Casey and I am a basketball columnist. I have initiated an idea to create a sports blogroll where bloggers from all sports disciplines could participate. All you need to do is to add my blog link to your blog and i’ll do the same. That way, we could have a mutual partnership and we could refer visitors to each other’s blog.
Please let me know if you would be interested.

Your’s in Hoops,
Peter Robert Casey
