    Jaiden Glover, the 6-foot-6, 195-pound Class of 2024 wing from the Riverside Hawks and the Patrick School, announced his final eight schools on Friday.

    Glover is now considering St Johns, Seton Hall, Creighton Illinois, Villanova, Providence,Ohio State and St. Joes. He will visit Seton Hall Aug. 29 and St. John’s Sept. 7.

    He averaged 17 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists while playing on the Under Armor circuit this month, while shooting 44% from deep. Glover

    He -previously broke down several schools for ZAGSBLOG:

    Providenc: “They were saying how they really love how I play. They came to all of my games. They watched one of my games with four coaches. At least one coach was at every game.’

    St. John’s: “I really like them, I like how they play. I want to see what the culture is like with Rick Pitino, but their message is they really want me. They like how I play, they like how I shoot, they like how I score the ball.”

    Creighton: “Me and them are in contact all the time. Coach DK [Derek Kellogg] is recruiting me. They say that I can fit into their offense really well. They run a lot of pick-and-rolls, They shoot a lot of threes.”

    Seton Hall (Aug. 29): “Coach Shaheen [Holloway] and coach Corey Lowery watched me this week. Same thing. They love how I score, they love how I shoot the ball, they like how I defend.”

    Virginia Tech: “They are one of my most recent offers. They really liked how I played. They saw me at the [NBA] Top 100 Camp. I was one of the leading scorers and they really liked how I played and they offered.”

    Illinois: “They offered me a while ago but they picked up on their recruiting recently because their coach saw me out here in Atlanta. I had a couple really good games.”

    Ohio State: “[Assistant coach] Jack Owens is the coach. They’re pushing the message that they have a lot of recent one-and-dones and I could be the next one.”

    Wherever he goes, he plans to make an impact as a scorer.

    “No. 1 is my ability to shoot the ball and my ability to flat out score the ball,” he said.

    He said he hopes to decide “sometime in the fall, like around September.”
