  • After visiting Kentucky for Big Blue Madness this past weekend, Quade Green cut his list to five schools on Monday: Duke, Syracuse, Kentucky, Villanova and Temple.

    “They [are] the five schools that keep in contact with me the most and that really want me, so I’m really considering all five of them,” the 6-foot-1 Neumann-Goretti (PA) point guard said Monday by phone.

    Green visited Kentucky for “Big Blue Madness” along with his 7-foot PSA Cardinals teammate Mohamed Bamba and several other elite prospects.

    “It was great, I loved it out there,” he said of Kentucky. “Very beautiful. The campus was beautiful, the coaching staff was great with me. I like it a lot out there.”

    While many of the top players in the Class of 2017 may not sign until the spring, Quade Green plans to sign in November.

    The 6-foot-1 point guard from Neumann-Goretti (PA) High School told Scout.com he plans to sign “early.”

    Green will visit Kentucky this week (Oct. 14) for “Big Blue Madness” and will also visit Syracuse (Oct. 21) for “Orange Madness.” Green is slated to be at Villanova’s Midnight Madness event on Oct. 28.

    He told Scout. he also plans to visit Arizona and Duke. Andrew Slater of 247Sports.com reported Green will visit Duke Oct. 22 for “Countdown to Craziness.”

    After visiting Syracuse this weekend, Neumann-Goretti (PA) and PSA Cardinals point guard Quade Green will trip to Kentucky on Oct. 14 for Big Blue Madness, a source said.

    As previously reported here, Syracuse and Kentucky have been most aggressive in their recruitment of Green, although Duke and Villanova are among the others involved.

    Syracuse head coach Jim Boeheim and assistant Gerry McNamara visited Green last month at Goretti, which also produced former Orange standouts Scoop Jardine and Rick Jackson.

    Green “blew up” this spring and summer, helping the PSA Cardinals reach the finals of the Peach Jam and winning a gold medal with the USA U18 team. He picked up Duke and Kentucky offers in late June.
