2022 Recruiting

Herndon

All-Conference
Haven’t really looked for film yet of this kid other than his instagram highlight vid, but I do love his frame. For a kid going into his junior year, his shoulders/neck look like someone who can add more weight. Would love to land some guys that look more like men and less like boys.

He apparently took up weight training pretty early. Looks more like a football player. I think physical strength is FOREVER underrated in basketball.

We always want long, bouncy guys, but it forever seems like when you watch the games, big, burly SOB's are always putting in work.

Like Ryan Daly? Kid is built like a 35-year-old rec league player.

Just saying we are recruiting higher level with Mojo onboard.

I don't know if Mojo is helping recruiting this quick, but I do not he certainly is not hurting it. Dude recruited at a fairly high level at GW in what was certainly a much worse situation that Mason is in now, so I agree that he's going to help out in what is probably our weakest area.

I think Simpkins is probably gone after this year, next at the absolute latest so would have to imagine that Mojo is next in line for that lead recruiter / 2nd in command position if he can land some of these kids this year.

Have we signed anybody since he’s joined? Seems like a weird statement when all we are talking about are offers.

We havent, but atleast we appear to be entering a higher level. Or so it seems. I don't have hard evidence nor did I stay at a Holiday inn last night.

Exacte Jr posted some new pics today and the kid is jacked. He might be bigger now going into his junior year in high school than any of our current players. I don’t care how good at basketball he is... get this kid to Fairfax.

I like what I see. Seems very quick off the bounce, can get to the basket, and has nice range. Best offers right now are Mason and vcu, but I have to think more are coming as he gets stronger and matures. Nice to see them after a kid in Baltimore as we know they produce some good D1 talent.

And it begins, Kim getting to work already.

Here’s a write up about his recruitment from mid January:


Devin Dinkins, the 5-foot-10, 155-pound point guard from Gonzaga (DC) College High School, says Georgetown, Virginia, and Tulsa are the three schools working the hardest for his recruitment.


He broke down each school for ZAGSBLOG Tuesday.


Georgetown: “The coaching staff tells me I should stay home and if I went there my family could see all my home games. They believe I can be an impact player early in my career and the program has great history.”


Virginia: “They have been recruiting me since my freshman year and it’s the only school I’ve taken a visit to right before COVID happened. I’ve built a great relationship with the entire coaching staff and they like my ability to score as a point guard and make plays for others.”


Tulsa: “I have been talking to them consistently and I have watched there program a lot lately. They are building a winning culture and they want me to come visit.”


Dinkins also holds offers from Virginia Tech, DePaul, La Salle, Penn State and Bryant.


He is also receiving new interest from Providence and Xavier.


Ranked by 247Sports.com as the No. 40 point guard in the Class of 2022, Dinkins says he does not have a timetable for his commitment.


“The strength of my game is my ability to shoot,” he said. “Also, being dynamic, using ball screens and on-ball defense. I could improve on being a more vocal leader

Hot damn. Has the job for a day and after a point guard for 2022.

Go get them Kim!

seems like it’s been a while since mason got any players from Gonzaga dc. Who was the last one? Vlad didn’t play there but I think it might’ve been him? too lazy to research.

Not going to lie - I am impressed. In all the areas that count.
