2016 PG Maliek White Down to Four

The recruiting buzz continues to pick up around the Providence program as they are in the midst of stretch hosting visitors. It started last weekend with 2016 wing Jalen Johnson and the Friar staff played double duty this weekend by hosting two recruits. Power forward Kevin Marfo‘s visit was scheduled for this weekend all along, but hosting point guard Maliek White wasn’t supposed to happen until next weekend. The Richmond, VA native decided to cancel his visit to Cincinnati and move up his trip to Friartown, a source familiar with the recruitment told pcbb1917.com on Friday. On Saturday White’s list was cut to a final four, according to the Twitter account of his grassroots program.

Providence joins Georgia Tech, Old Dominion and Pittsburgh on that final four. White has visited all of the schools except for Georgia Tech. A source familiar with the recrtuitment told pcbb1917.com that White will visit Georgia Tech next weekend and a decision is expected soon.

The Friars have been chasing point guards for some time now to try to offset the pending loss of Kris Dunn to the NBA. A point guard and a big man seem to be the must-haves in the class of 2016 and White is one of the more highly ranked lead guard prospects that Providence is chasing. The Friars are also scheduled to host Jalen Harris the weekend of October 9th.
