Well one things for sure, Frank Martin is making a future PG a primary focus in 2024 recruiting.

Not sure he’ll enter portal after freshman season but if we had a spot Albany’s center Jonathan Beagle has shown he was under recruited. He has had a very impressive freshman season. 6-10 240. We did recruit him and he took a visit to Umass last summer. He had good things to say about the UMass after his visit.

He's been able to stay on the court without excessive fouling. Looks like he can pass and rebound. Sometimes even hits a trey...

Sign him up!!!

2024 recruit Mathok Majok has announced his committment to UMass.
The 7’3 Bridgeport Prep player chose the Minutemen over Sacred Heart and Coastal Carolina.

(Edit: Now told he is a 23. OK)
"Jack didn’t have any envy in him," Calipari said. "He was the greatest coach to ever coach here."

My sense is Buzz has the inside track, but this would be a monster win: https://twitter.com/AdamFinkelstein/sta ... 4738033669

This would be a big get for 2024. I've seen him as high as #55 on ESPN's top 100. How's our relationship with Vin Pastore these days?
Bradford Christian Academy and Mass Rivals’ George Turkson is ready to end his recruitment.
The 6-foot-7 forward will announce his commitment on Wednesday, May 10th at 6:30pm ET live on the 247Sports Channel.
Turkson will choose from among three finalists – Massachusetts, Northwestern, and Texas A&M.

All three schools have ties to Turkson directly and to his Mass Rivals’ club.

UMass head coach Frank Martin recruited former Mass Rivals big man Wildens Leveque to South Carolina back in 2019. When Martin left for UMass in 2019, Leveque followed. Another former Rival, Gianni Thompson, spent last season with the Minutemen after transferring in from Boston College.

Something tells me we’re not getting George Turkson but who knows, our fan base is giving him as much love as we can. Always good to see, because anything can happen.

The fact that he visited there a second time just last week tells me A & M are getting him!

Looking good now. FM posted the eyes on twitter. Usually a good sign

I think if he had a 2nd visit last week and they didn't get an immediate commit, we could still be a good possibility. I have a good feeling Frank gets him to UMass

He has interest from huge programs on 247 but no offers yet.

Frank loves BIGS and Point Guards...
