'17 CA SG Alfred Hollins (Verbal to Oregon State)

[HawaiiBUFF]

Sorry if we already have a profile for this kid, but if you go look at "considering" on our ESPN basketball recruits, he has an offer. He is a 4 Star, 81 Grade SG from San Francisco, CA. He is also 6'6, 195.

Transferred from Sacred Heart Cathedral in CA to Hillcrest Prep Academy in Phoenix for his senior year.

I don't know how old the CU offer is. If new, this could be a big deal. ASU looks like it is the team to beat.

Not sure when he was offered but Rivals and Scout are showing the offer too:

Not much info on his twitter either: https://twitter.com/_AlfredHollins
It does talk about some of his other offers though and we were included in the tweet back in December:

Agreed. If we do have that 4th spot open up, it'd be nice to land a 6'6 SG. I know many think we need a PG, but this would be a solid pick-up.

It looks like Tad & Co., are actively recruiting at least one more HS player for the class of '17. Obviously this means at least one current scholarship player with eligibility left will be gone after this school year. If this comes to fruition it will be interesting to see who is gone and where they end up.

It also means the Buffs will be even younger next season. Currently there will be three true freshmen and two redshirt freshmen.
