2020 Recruiting: Kevin Marfo (QU) to Grad Transfer

[king conn]

We are good with Etienne but he is unlikely to go 2020 from what I've heard. Needs experience--he isn't ready yet

A lot of thing$ can change in a year. If you can get him to reclass now it would be prudent.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that if we weren't in his top 15, then we weren't going after him that hard.

This quote from an article about WSU recruiting seems to back up your contention about how hard we went after him. Head coaches from some schools (Florida, etc.) pursued him but for UConn it was Assistant Coaches:

Kevin Marfo (Quinnipiac graduate transfer)

[Hey Adrien!]

Great fit for St. John's since they don't have a true center and Marfo fits their blue collar, grind it out mentality.
