Jabril Trawick

Trawick particiapted in last weekend's Myrtle Beach Big Shots Tournament, drawing talent from throughout the East/South along with many Top 20 coaching staffs. Recruiting guru Dave Telep had observations on many of the event's heavily recruited players, including this brief comment on Trawick:

Jabril Trawick, SG/SF, Team Phenom: Need a guy to break someone down, Trawick is a good option. For starters, he’s man-strong. There’s a Philly toughness to him and when he decides he’s going to the rim, he gets his way or goes to the line. We’ll watch him again on Sunday but he made a big impression and created buzz with his game.

Trawick has offers from Drexel, LaSalle, Robert Morris, Delaware with Virginia, VCU and Marshall

I don't have insider insight into VCU recruiting: are we aggressively pursuing this 2011 SG?, and do we have a scholly available? Per my post above, Scout's shows VCU has an offer out to him.
 
We have 2 available for 2011. Joey, Brandon, Ed, and Jamie will all be gone and Pierria and Briante have already committed. No clue about the rest. I would assume we are going after at least one big but we could be looking for a guard as well.

i believe that was the plan; 1 guard, 1 big w the last 2 spots.
 
Hard to tell level of interest by Trawick in VCU [or VCU in Trawick], but clearly many have him on their radar.

After the first session of the July Live Evaluation period I took the time to catch up with a few players from the New Jersey/Pennsylvania area to see where their recruitment stood. Many players garner more interest and add offers in the month of July after coaches see them play. I was able to get in touch with a half dozen players from some of the top AAU teams in the area for updates.

One player who really helped his stock in the first set of 10 days this July was Jabril Trawick ’11 of Abington Friends (PA) and Team Phenom. Trawick, an athletic 6’6 wing, currently claims offers from 24 programs: La Salle, Drexel, Penn, Robert Morris, VCU, Northeastern, Delaware, Alabama, Virginia, Florida State, Cincinnati, Marist, Marshall, Charlotte, Murray State, North Carolina State, Wagner, St. Francis (PA), Richmond, UNC-Wilmington, Boston College, Old Dominion, and East Tennessee State. “Not yet. I’ll think about [that] after all the basketball is done,” said Trawick on whether he has any favorites. Trawick noted that many of the schools have just recently gotten involved and that all of his offers besides Drexel, La Salle, Delaware, and Robert Morris are fairly recent.

Well, we are/were on his "favorite" list as of quote from August 9. Looks like the following week he decided to vist Gtown. It originally sounded like he wasn't planning visits, so I don't know what this means? JT, do yourself a big favor and visit VCU before deciding....

August 9
“I have cut my list down a lot recently, basically through some discussions with family and we all came to a realization that its about finding the best situation where I will be successful and get the most exposure. So honestly, I will go on visits if needed but the way the time table on my decision is looking I won’t really need one because I have a lot of familiarity with my favorites, so I can be making my decision sometime this week.” ... Jabril reiterated for confirmation, “I will more than likely make a decision this week.”

The tough guard out of Philly informed me via text that he is currently at Georgetown for an unofficial.
He also stated that he may take more time with his visit and see some other schools before making the final call.
Previous interview found here http://www.cuttingdownnets.com/2010/08/ ... interview/
 
He is looking to be successful.....he certainly can at VCU if he is that good. He is also looking for exposure...I'll not comment.
