Harvard made the top 8 for 2021 G Gabe Dorsey from The Hill School in PA. The other 7 on his final list are Vanderbilt, Virginia Tech, Wake Forest, Penn State, Miami, Xavier, and Providence. 3 star in the #130-150 range nationally on 247 and Rivals. Looks like Harvard beat out Georgetown, Tennessee, and VCU among others to make his top 8

Harrison Ingram, a top 10 player in the 2021 class, just announced his top six schools, and we made the cut! The others are Stanford, Purdue, Michigan, North Carolina, and Howard.

My understanding is Ingram is likely to chose Stanford but hopefully I’m incorrect

Harvard now has three Top 150 players in the class with Tyler Simon coming on board.
As good as Harvard’s 2016 class was, and certainly it was deeper than this one, it’s possible that this one is better... and if you think of the 2020 and 2021 classes together (which would be roughly the same size as 2016), those combined hauls are more impressive.

Wow, that's another big get. 247 shows Simon had offers from Cal, Stanford, and Wichita, and actually has his composite rating higher than anyone else we have in this class (although they themselves have both Pitcher and Lesmond higher). What's the scouting report on him?
Right now, 247 has us with the 22nd-best recruiting class in the country, and, while I know we still have to be long shots for Harrison Barnes, we'd be crazy high if we landed him too.

Do you think we have a chance at Harrison Ingram? Also what are people’s expectations for this years team? How would it work if college basketball starts November 25th but the ivies already said they won’t play till at least January of 2021.

I don’t see Harrison Ingram or Aminu Mohammed happening, but, hey, dare to dream!
Still a heck of a class either way. Could maybe use another big, but if there are better options in the 2022 class, no real harm in waiting...

Hey, you can’t say it’s ok for Harvard to wait on a big until next year when you keep dinging Penn for doing the same thing!
Ok, I guess maybe the difference is the top 150 recruits. And the fact that Harvard at least has one big in their class.

Doesn’t Harvard have a big in 2020?
Can’t have a big every year.

Yeah, I mean, they’ll have Forbes, Brayboy, O’Neil, Hemmings, Ajogbor and Pitcher in 2021-22, but Forbes will be graduating, and he’s the only one with demonstrated performance at the D-I level. Would be a little more comfortable with Harvard picking up another bouncy rim protector to replace Forbes, but that could either be in the 2021 class or 2022.

Yes, I was alluding to Ajogbor in 2020 class. He appears to be a 5, not a even a 4. Tough to fill the bench with starters at the same position. Although, injuries.

Harrison Ingram will announce tomorrow at 5pm. Whole world is saying Stanford, and that seems right to me.
That would leave Aminu Mohammed as the last big name that Harvard has reportedly been after.

As expected, Ingram picked Stanford. On to Mohammed.
