Marquette offers 2015 PG Traci Carter
« on: February 09, 2015, 12:22:22 PM »
**UConn is the latest school to offer uncommitted 2015 point guard Traci Carter of Burlington (N.J.) Life Center, who told SNY.tv the offer felt “wonderful” and he planned to visit. Pervis Ellison, Carter’s coach, previously said he was under impression that UConn “needs a point guard bad” even though they have Jalen Adams of Brewster (N.H.) Academy coming in. Carter, who also recently picked up offers from N.C. State, Xavier and Marquette, also attended Sunday’s Ohio State-Rutgers game.
Silenzio. Parla il moomoo.

Rated by Scout's Evan Daniels as the second best uncommitted PG in the class of 2015.

http://scouthoops.scout.com/story/1511625-top-5-available-senior-pg-s?s=75

After sitting out last spring and summer due to an injury, Traci Carter is back and starting to reach 100-percent. At the Hoop Hall Classic a few weeks ago, Carter impressed with his toughness, playmaking ability and his on the ball defense. He’s streaky from long-range, but Carter, who shoots a high arcing jump shot, is capable of getting it going. He’s also a good pull-up jump shooter. This will be a quality late pick up for a high-major program.

The same.  Haven't heard his name in forever, since I was a kid and we thought he name was hilarious cause it sounded kind of like "pervert".  I don't think I ever realized he was the #1 pick in his draft, wow.

Marquette has definitely shown interest, though not sure we've actually offered yet. Been hoping Wojo would offer, Carter seems like maybe the best high school point guard left.

Live in Jersey. Actively follow boys hoops. Never heard of Carter. Then again, Life Center doesn't play too many NJ schools.

Yes. His son Malik - also an uncommitted 2015 w/HM interest - is there as well.
Thanks for ruining summer, Canada.

Carter announced that MU will be one of two official visits he's got coming up.
Good sign, I hope.

Streaky and high arcing shot pretty much means bad. Not sure if I can deal with more PGs that can't shoot. Junior and then Derrick, hard to watch.

His Scout and Future150 profiles both list 3 point shooting as a strength, FWIW.

This should be a very good gauge on how good Wojo will recruit going forward. We definitely need a PG. We are going against some good programs like UConn, Xavier, NC State, Creighton, etc. May be tough to pull him from N.J. to the Midwest..

I know you only get to see the makes in these videos, but his mechanics look pretty good. Finishes well with both hands, too.

I agree this would be an impressive get by Wojo with some major competition going after him.  Sacar was a solid addition, but didn't have anywhere near the caliber schools going after him as Carter.  Hopefully Wojo can sell him on being the only true PG on the roster.

I'd love to see this kid at MU. He is a solid point guard with vision and a decent defender. Could be a contributor for years to come.

From that video he looks a bit like a bulkier Du Wilson.  Similar sort of quick gait and rise up.

Regardless if Duane were to start at PG next year, Traci certainly knows he'd play a significant role right out of the box his Freshman year.  That can't hurt our chances one bit.
