New York State Of Mind

Jayvaughn Pinkston, Tobias Harris, possibly Kyrie Irving. Looks like UT is looking to the NYC Metro area for the '10 class.

Pearl is just trying to make inroads for his future job at UCONN!

I'll see if I can get a hold of these kids

Instead of World Wide Wes, you can be Manhattan Matt. That sounds catchy.

Well perhaps BP can steal some of the NY kids from Pitino, since thats where he has buttered his bread for so long.

Interesting stuff. Thanks. I hope we can get some of these guys - they're badly needed.

They all look pretty solid.

What's your take on them Hat and what do our chances look like?

Pinkston is the kind of player this roster is missing. I think they'll have a legitimate shot at him.
All signs currently point to Harris at UCONN. He's one of my favorite players in this class.
Irving would be the answer to the point guard problem. However, I'm not sure how much effort Tennessee is putting in to get in the race or if Irving would be interested.

From people I have talked to and what I have read, Irving seems to be all but sold on either Indiana or Duke at this point. It would be very tough to break into his recruitment.

This is good. Bernard King is a New York native.

Yeah, it's been a while since King and Grunfeld played, but that precedent of NYers starring for UT can't hurt. I've been thinking the same thing.

You can't honestly think that would help.

OK, probably not. It couldn't hurt if they were to meet though.
