Where are we in the recruitment of him? I am baffled that I am not seeing that we are not all over this kid, especially given the recent decommits we had at the shooting position. We absolutely need a kid like this and this we should be in a good place given our relationship with Ashton. Yet all I see how he is being courted by Notre Dame(and other schools) with in home visits and visits to schools. I know we are working 2015 hard, but I sure hope we don't end up on the short end again in 2016.

I thought he was staying at the Hall ?
 
Sterling Gibbs is at Seton Hall. Temple is a 2016 recruit, and it doesn't look good for us IMHO.

I agree that Pitt is down in the order for Temple Gibbs. While I am on the side of not breaking rules to win at all costs, I am in agreement with those who have mentioned getting Ashton on staff as the team video guy - under the condition he gets his brother to Pitt.
 
If we're going to hire a relative on the coaching staff, bring in the entire Diallo family tree from Mali...for a year anyway.

He's a natural PG, not a SG, right? We may need one of those even more than we need a 2 guard in 2016. It would be really nice to get back to having a scoring PG. Very important piece of the puzzle IMO. Either way, I agree with you, this is an important recruit. Here we have a legacy player who happens to be a national top 50 prospect, we have an assistant coach who is from his very same high school and who knows his family, and his brother had an outstanding career here. If we aren't very much in the running for this player, something is wrong. And if Brandin Knight can;t deliver this recruit, who can he deliver?

I will be surprised if Diallo is in college next year. Something just doesn't feel right about him not announcing yet.
