Some more on the SHU target reported by cityofbballlove.com from Nwankwo’s guardian on his list.

Minnesota: “They’ve been around for a long time, really since the beginning. They were at his high school games, they were at his AAU games so they’ve done a good job with that. As far as the school itself, we like the academics. It’s a very good academic school…they play in the Big 10 so it’s a good conference.”

Tennessee: “They originally offered when Cuonzo Martin was the head coach there. Donnie Tyndall came in and we got in contact with each other…we love the school. The facilities at the school are incredible. They have some guys that are hungry and can really get after it.”

Seton Hall: “Really good school and we’ve gotten to know the coaches really well…went to a bunch of home games. We like the recruiting class that’s coming in there with Isaiah Whitehead and Desi Rodriguez. Those guys are all friends with Jon just from playing with each other in New York City, whether it’s an all-star tournament or a showcase event…it would be a really great opportunity for Jon to go play with those guys at the college level.”


Temple: as previously mentioned, is the only school in Nwankwo’s final list to not yet have extended an offer.
