As far as recruiting, Shayok said the schools recruiting him “the hardest right now [are] Marquette, Cincinnati and Boston College and that’s about it.”
Marquette coach Buzz Williams was in the stands this weekend.
“Yeah, yeah it makes me feel real good,” Shayok said, adding of Marquette. “Also playing wise. The transition, the way they play their offense real fast I feel like it fits my game.”
As for BC, Shayok doesn’t know much about them other than that fellow Canadian “Olivier [Hanlan] goes there and he’s done well there.”
On Cincinnati, “They just play really aggressive and I like that.”
Seton Hall coach Kevin Willard and associate head coach Shaheen Holloway were also watching him.
“I don’t really konw much about them but theyr’e recruiting me also,” he said.
The rising senior at Blair (N.J.) Academy said he’s planning “a couple East Coast visits” with his dad before school starts and wants to visit Seton Hall, Rutgers and Villanova.
“A fast school, transition, a place where the coach is going to stay there my whole college career,” he said of what he wants. “Just a place where I can get better.”
