PF EJ Liddell (All B1G, All-American, New Orleans Pelicans)

let's hope that duke gets whom they're expected to get: isaiah stewart and wendell moore. i don't know what kind of class k is looking to sign, but getting those two probably leaves no room for liddell. same goes for kansas, who leads for these 3 long forwards: robinson-earl, hurt, and lawson. unc, too, with carey and bacot. the two programs that worry me the most are kentucky and indiana. calipari doesn't seem to lead for any player like liddell, and i think miller could sell liddell on pairing with tjd. that being stated, my guess is liddell would probably rather complement someone like gaffney, who roams the perimeter a bit more.

Peach Jam: Top 40 E.J. Liddell sets first visit, has new ACC involvement

Top 40 forward E.J. Liddell’s recruitment has started to get a little bit more interesting.

Not that the star of Bradley Beal Elite’s recruitment hadn’t already taken off with most of the Big Ten, some SEC and Big 12 programs involved. But, at the Peach Jam Liddell revealed that both Duke and North Carolina have jumped into his recruitment. Plus, he’s set his first official visit.

“They have just been calling me and telling me how they like good players in their program and they might offer me after this weekend if I have a good week,” said Liddell of the newfound interest from the Blue Devils and Tar Heels.

Both Mike Krzyzewski and Roy Williams watched Liddell in North Augusta and he discussed the level of interest from each.

“They just introduced themselves and said that they’ve been watching me for a long time,” said Liddell of North Carolina. “They just love good basketball players and they love my versatility.”

While UNC has interest Liddell has yet to speak directly with Williams whereas Duke has moved a little further along and it wouldn’t be a surprise if they ended up offering. Plus, he’s spoken with Coach K a few times.

...

As for the next step in his recruitment, Liddell said he’ll firm up his list after July ends. He wouldn’t commit to which schools would for sure get visits other than to confirm that Chris Holtmann and Ohio State have gotten his first official visit scheduled.

“I already set an official visit for the first football game for Ohio State so they are obviously going to be in it,” said Liddell. “I set the visit like two weeks ago.”
