Recruiting News & Notes: South Florida

<p>Apparently, fall is here in South Florida.</p> <p>That also indicates we are inching closer to high school basketball in the region. Tryouts and subsequent practices will be here before you know it. After that, preseason tournaments and games will follow. It’s an exciting time to be a fan across all sports.</p> <p>Let’s look into some notes...</p> <p>2023 <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="709215" first="Marvel" last="Allen"]</strong> earned an offer from <strong>Ohio State</strong> on Wednesday. The 6-foot-4 combo guard also took an official visit to <strong>Georgia</strong>. The 5-star prospect has racked up offers in recent months. Allen showcased his size and athleticism with E1T1 this summer. He’s making a strong claim as one of the best players in America. Allen has hinted he will release a top 10 school list soon. His Calvary Christian teammate, 2023 <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="709228" first="Carl" last="Cherenfant"]</strong>, has an unofficial with <strong>Florida</strong> scheduled for September 18th. Cherenfant has looked fantastic since helping the Eagles to a 3A state title last March.</p> <p>2022 <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="814895" first="Gregg" last="Glenn"]</strong> has indicated he will be making his college decision soon. The 4-star forward is reportedly down to <strong>Michigan</strong>, <strong>Iona</strong>, <strong>Virginia</strong> <strong>Tech</strong>, <strong>South Florida</strong> and <strong>Georgia</strong>. The 6-foot-7 Glenn has improved his handle and ability to attack the rim over the summer. His recruitment has been one of the more interesting to follow. Are the Wolverines the favorite? We will all soon find out.</p> <p>2024 wing [player_tooltip player_id="1069620" first="Marcus" last="Allen"] earned his second power-five offer from the <strong>University of Miami.</strong> ACC rival <strong>Florida State</strong> and <strong>Florida Gulf Coast</strong> represent his other suitors. Allen’s potential is very high given his size (6’6) and athleticism. I’m a bit surprised more programs haven’t reached out. His upside appears quite high for a sophomore. Two more years of work on the floor points to a high ceiling.</p> <p>2025 <strong>Cayden Boozer</strong> also earned an offer from the Canes. The 6-foot-4 guard impressed this summer playing for <strong>Nightrydas Elite</strong>. Boozer is an aggressive scorer with ball skill at a young age. Along with his brother, <strong>Cameron Boozer</strong>, he’s a must watch for Miami <strong>Columbus</strong>. The Explorers will be one of the best high school tickets in town. Their father,<strong> Carlos Boozer, </strong>was a star at Duke and went on to play in the NBA for 12 seasons<strong>. <br /> </strong></p> <p>2022 <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="712115" first="Justin" last="Abson"]</strong> took an official visit to <strong>Appalachian State</strong>. The 6-foot-9 forward is one of the best two-way prospects in the region. I especially like his work on the defensive side of the floor. Many schools have offered the <strong>North Broward Prep</strong> star.</p> <p><em><strong>For any South Florida Prep Hoops news or information...please contact Michael Costeines @Steins_23 on Instagram or follow him on Twitter @Mungertown_Mike23.</strong></em></p>
