Anybody know why Zach Lezanic is not on Bison recruiting lists? He's the son of Mark Lezanic, who played and coached with Charlie Woollum and Zach has offers from Army, Navy, and Lafayette. He is playing a PG year the Hill School this year after graduating from Conestoga HS in PA last June.

No idea at all, but I'd guess the staff at this point has decided they can do better at the guard position. For that matter, with the commitment from Deuce Turner, it is possible they might not even be looking for any more guards in this class. It is rare by August for Bucknell to have an offer out to a player whose top offer is Lafayette. Typically Army, Navy, and Lafayette are recruiting in a different pool than Bucknell, Boston U, Lehigh, etc.

- Dorsey , Caleb . 6-8 F (PA) Bucknell offer Mar-2019 ; Georgetown, Yale, Hofstra, Lehigh, Loyola, MSM, UMBC,
Adam Zagoria: "6-foot-8 wing Caleb Dorsey of @HillBBasketball told me Yale, Georgetown and Bucknell are in hot pursuit. Hofstra and Delaware also among those watching him at @hunschool. Will decide after Peach Jam."
https://twitter.com/AdamZagoria/status/11 450099935...
The Dorsey brothers are taking unofficial visits to Penn State and Georgetown per the link below. Not a good sign that they aren’t making a stop in Lewisburg on their trip to Central PA

Not out of the running just yet! Dorsey has an unofficial visit to Yale tomorrow

Quoting from the link above:
"I’ve been told Bucknell and Penn State are also very much in the mix for 2020 Caleb Dorsey"

according to this article: https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2019/08/22/bas...
we have offered Kaine Roberts a 6-2 shooting guard. he is a Japanese national, born there to an American father and Japanese mother. played high school ball in Japan last year, but will transfer to a hs in California for his senior season. looks like he has a fair amount of international experience and played in aau tourney(s) in the U.S., presumably how we came across him.

In response to KenZ
That's very interesting - but also a bit confusing IF he is truly a SG. Deuce Turner seems to be very much a SG. Do they really want two in one class, assuming that is truly his position. If I am reading it correctly, the article seems to call him a "guard" - not a SG but also not a "point guard", which is how they identify another player. It also notes that Roberts "displayed flashy dribbling skills" and they talk about him making his teammates better. So I wonder if he is really a CG who the staff thinks could handle the point. Or another option, of course, is that the offer was made before Turner committed and is now off the table. One other possibility is that he is going to enroll at his California HS as a junior, not a senior as the article says, and become a 2021 recruit.
Interesting that the Bison would have seen/heard enough of him to make an offer. I wonder how that came about. I very much like international involvement - although I'd like it to be focused more on Serbia, Croatia, Spain, etc.

I see there is a ton of video of Roberts. It's tough to judge very much from highlight reels, but it's clear he is very fast and very athletic. That site, btw, identifies him as both a "shooting guard and point guard".
https://sportsrecruits.com/athlete/kaine_roberts
I also see from his team's website that they played in California AAU tournaments this summer, so that presumably explains how the Bison staff saw him.

I was thinking the same thing. SAT's might not have gone as expected.

Yes, that is possible. There are occasions when offers from Ivy and Pl schools are contingent upon the player raising his SAT scores. No idea if that happened here - but it does happen on occasion. It is a bit strange to see a player cut Bucknell, Columbia, Brown, and Loyola while keeping Towson, Howard, Quinny, and JMU.

Most years, I would agree with you, but this coming season, I think that Colgate will average 1,200 or more per game. They should be very good.

800 tops. Foyle was a huge college star and Colgate went to the tourney. No one went. It’s Hamilton, NY. No one cares.

Offer to Caelan 'C.J.' Jones, a 6-5 wing from Los Angeles who will be doing a PG year at Vermont Academy after playing four years for Loyola in L.A. Has offers from Siena, Fairfield, Niagara, Sacred Heart, South Dakota, and Army - all in the past five weeks.
At Loyola - which is a good program - he seems to have been a role player who shot a lot of threes. Went 52-146 (46%) from beyond the arc but almost never went to the line. He didn't have any offers when he finished his senior year before they started pouring in, so presumably he has shown a lot of recent improvement.
Jones will make an official visit to Bucknell from September 12 through the 14th. He has picked up more offers, and now holds ones from Boston U, Vermont, Penn, Sacred Heart, Fairfield, Niagara, Siena, , Army, South Dakota, William and Mary, Princeton, Dartmouth, and Colgate.

Offer to 6-9 PF/C Sam Thomson, who is from a suburb of Toronto but attends the Brooks School in Massachusetts. He also has offers from Colgate, UNH, Sacred Heart, Mt. St. Mary's, and Merrimack (who is switching over to D1 this year).
he also picked up a Penn offer yesterday
And just picked up offers from Dartmouth, Brown, Boston U, Lehigh, and American.
Thomson committed to Colgate yesterday. I can’t remember the last time Colgate brought in somebody as highly regarded as Sam right out of high school
