Cornell adds one more recruit. Evan Williams is 6-7 forward from Plano East HS with a handful of low mid-major D1 offers. The list isn't great, mainly Southland schools, but it's probably the best of any of this year's recruits. He was first-team all-district and led his team in scoring (10.3 points per game), rebounds (6.9) and blocked shots (1.2). The local papers say he battled mono early in the season, so that could have impacted his stats. He at least has potential.
I apparently missed the commitment of another young man from Plano, Keller Boothby, who spent a post-grad year at Wilbraham and Monson Academy. A short, sort of, scouting report is here , but his only other offer, according to Verbal Commits, was D2 UT Tyler. If true, that doesn't bode terribly well, but here's to hoping for the best.
That gives Cornell a new class of 5: PG Isaiah Gray, SG Chris Manon, Post Sean Hansen, Williams and Boothby. Two of the guys have no D1 offers, at least as far as I can tell, and the best schools offering any of the other three are BU and Nicholls St.
Said another way, something really unexpected is going to have to happen for this class to change the current trajectory of the program.
