Wait, did he commit to Duquesne or Pitt, because that description does not fit Duquesne.

You dont seriously think Duquesne has a better academic rep than Temple, do you?

Our practice facility is brand new. Brand new scoreboard in the Liacouras Center just went up.

Say what you want about the BE, but the $$$, TV exposure, MSG, and teams blow away the A10. I like the A10 very much, but you're kidding yourself if you wouldn't jump at an invitation.

The same ranking that has Rutgers-Newark ahead of Temple? Cmon man, give me a break. In the sports, tourism and hospitality industry, Duquesne is considered a joke. Nearly $41K a year for an average education. Not even close.

Oh...Yes, because I think the most important people to have a good reputation with as a University is hotel workers, waiters, and tour guides.

Not quite. Try people running stadiums and resorts around the world.

Duquesne has landed a commitment from Isaiah Watkins, a 2013 PF out of St. Benedict's (NJ), per a source.

Gilbert Muako ‏@GilMuako
Duquesne made Isaiah Watkins a top priority and in the end they got their man. No one recruited him harder.


Watkins is a 6'8 Forward from Canada/ St. Benedicts who had offers from Indiana, Boston College, Arkansas, Iowa State, Baylor, Niagara, Charlotte, Miami (FL), Oregon State, Columbia, Princeton, URI, Villanova, Washington, St. Joes and others. He was rated a 3 star recruit by Scout. He is rated the fifth ranked prospect in Canada by North Pole Hoops

Congratulations to the Mighty Dukes on an excellent commitment.

Isaiah Watkins had a very impressive "Offer" list:


3-Star PF Isaiah Watkins (Rivals Class of 2013 Profile)


USA Today Super 25 Final 2012 Boys Basketball Rankings (USA Today - July 20, 2012)
No. 15 - St. Benedict's Prep - Newark, NJ - 35-3-0

Results: Lost 68-65 to No. 2 Findlay Prep (Henderson, Nev.) in NHSI semifinals.

Defeated then-No. 19 Ely (Pompano Beach, Fla.) 67-61 in NHSI first round as Melvin Johnson had 17 points.

Nice get for Duquesne. What a meltdown from Temple Tom up there.
