Florida, Iowa Looking at Elijah Carter

By Adam Zagoria on November 28, 2010, 11:51AM

Count Florida and Iowa as the latest schools interested in Brewster (N.H.) Academy combo guard Elijah Carter.

“Florida called Monday and is supposed to send someone to see him,” said Eric Harrield, Carter’s AAU coach. “Iowa is going to go see him.”

The 6-foot-2 Carter is a New Jersey native who initially committed to St. Bonaventure before decommitting.

The No. 22 point guard in the Class of 2011, he did not sign in the early signing period and recently said he was still considering Oregon State, Seton Hall, Charlotte, Rhode Island and South Florida.

Still, he added that other schools would also have a shot going forward.

“Yes, there is a chance new schools can get in,” he said.

The recruitment of 6-foot-8 Long Island wing Tyler Harris is heating up.

Harris has already visited Iowa and then hit N.C. State this past weekend. St. John’s is the final school on his list and no date has been set. (more…)

Tyler Harris Down to 5 Schools

By Adam Zagoria on September 13, 2010, 12:23PM

Tyler Harris, whose college list once numbered nearly a dozen schools, is now focusing on just five.

The 6-foot-8 forward from Long Island and St. Benedict’s Prep is considering Iowa, N.C. State, Providence, St. John’s and Wake Forest.

Two officials have been set, to N.C. State Oct. 1 and to Providence Oct. 15.

He still has home visits Sept. 20 with  Iowa and St. John’s. A home visit with Wake could happen this weekend.

UConn is still on the periphery of Harris’s recruitment and head coach Jim Calhoun and Torrel Harris have a strong relationship, but because the Huskies have several wings in Jamal Coombs, Roscoe Smith and Niels Giffey, it is unlikely Tyler will end up there. (more…)
