Price Picks up Offer From Hawks

Earlier today, Detroit Country Day School junior Jodan Price picked up a scholarship offer from Saint Joseph's. Price, a 6'7 shooting guard who has turned heads with his play this spring, announced the offer on Twitter, saying "Shoutout to Saint Joseph and the coaching staff for offering me a scholarship." Price's bread and butter is his shooting stroke, and that ability to knock down shots from deep certainly played an integral role in today's scholarship offer from the Hawks.

With the offer today from the Hawks, Price has now picked up three offers in the past 24 hours. Yesterday, he collected offers from both Lamar and Central Michigan. Price was also recently offered by Eastern Michigan. The offer from EMU was Price's first, and they have come rolling in since. In addition to these offers, Price has interest from other schools such as Temple, Maryland, Colorado, Oakland, and many more. An article on Jodan's recruitment, from CollegiateHoops.net, can be found here.

It is clear that the Hawks would like to sign a shooter in the 2012 class. Other names that fit that bill are Baltimore's Isaiah Miles and Indiana's Mike Ramey.

Miles, Price Turn Heads in LA

Earlier in the week, I profiled thirteen players in the class of 2012 that were getting recruiting interest from the Hawks. Two players from that list, Baltimore forward Isaiah Miles and Detroit shooting guard Jodan Price, are currently participating in the Nike EYBL event in Los Angeles. Miles plays for Baltimore Elite while Price suits up for The Family. Both players caught the eye of Rivals writer Eric Bossi yesterday.

I recently wrote a feature article on Miles, where one of his high school coaches, Geoff Reed, said that Saint Joseph's was recruiting Miles the hardest at the moment. That is a good thing for Hawk fans, considering the fact that Bossi wrote that "it will be a surprise if the 6'7 rising senior's recruitment doesn't heat up come July." My article on Isaiah can be found here.

Price, a 6'6 shooting guard from Detroit, listed eleven schools yesterday, with both Saint Joseph's and Temple included in the list.
