    Marquette, Minnesota, Oklahoma, Providence, Rutgers, Seton Hall, St. John's

    After a long July on the recruiting circuit with the New England Playaz, Naadir Tharpe has a list of schools in mind but plans to wait until he gets back to Brewster (N.H.) Academy to cut his list.

    “I don’t have any top schools,” Tharpe, who previously decommitted from Providence, said Monday morning. “I’m basically looking at everybody until I get back to school and talk to my coach [Jason Smith] about what schools fit me the best.”

    The 6-foot, 170-pound Tharpe listed St. John’s, Rutgers, Seton Hall, Minnesota, Iowa State, Marquette, Providence and Oklahoma.

    Baylor, Kansas, Louisville, St. John's

    After a long month on the AAU circuit, JaKarr Sampson has a list of his Top 3 schools going forward.

    “Baylor, Kansas and St. John’s,” the 6-foot-8, 193-pound forward from Akron (Ohio) St. Vincent-St. Mary said Sunday night.

    Don Anderson, Sampson’s AAU coach, added Louisville in the group of schools that Sampson will visit “for sure.”

    “Baylor’s been consistent, they’re going to get a visit,” Anderson said. “St. John’s has been consistent, they’re going to get a visit. Kansas and Louisville. That leaves one more that he hasn’t figured out yet.”
