Jordan Tillery, a 6-foot-5 wing from Team Loaded now playing for coach Jimmy Carr on the IMG Academy post-grad team, is gaining steam in his recruitment for the Class of 2025.
Tillery is being recruited the hardest by Saint Louis, Seton Hall, VCU, Western Kentucky and Arkansas State, he told ZAGSBLOG. He has an official set for Saint Louis Sept. 3-5 and also plans to visit Seton Hall.
“He’s an emerging player who had a great spring and summer,” Carr, the former Division 1 assistant, told ZAGSBLOG. “He’s always been a winner and with increasing skill level is making a big jump in his recruitment.”
Tillery broke down several of his top schools:
Saint Louis: “The coach there [Josh Scherz] loves how I play and I love their play style, the location and the conference they are in as well. But they really seem like a great program to consider going to.”
Seton Hall: “I like them because they took their time with recruiting me and made sure they understood me not only as a player but also as a person.”
VCU: “I’ve always liked VCU and their play style and all the pros who have came out of the school.”
Arkansas State: “I love Arkansas State. They’ve always been there watching me, texting me, showing me all kinds of love and I love their staff.”
