PrintAccording to The Recruit Scoop, Jabril Trawick, a Class of 2011 6-foot-5 shooting guard from Abington Friends High School in Pennsylvania has committed to Georgetown.
This weekend, the guard went on an official visit to Georgetown. He came out a Hoya. "I just committed to Georgetown," Trawick said by text. Georgetown coach John Thompson III and staff were very pleased with what they saw this summer out of Jabril. They offered during the July live period.
"The coaching staff and the group of players that I will be playing with is a big reason why I chose Georgetown," Trawick stated. "The time we will get on television is awesome and I really like the Verizon Center. There are a lot of connections there, it’s like a pipeline." Jabril will also see some significant minutes early on. "(Current Hoyas) Austin and Chris are leaving and I’m going to fill in." He also commented on the location, "It’s a good location; it’s not to far from home."
More Trawick after The Jump:
As the Philly native is the first commitment for the class of 2011, Georgetown looks to head in the right direction with this commitment. During his official visit, Trawick got to see and experience the Georgetown lifestyle. "I got to play pickup with former Hoya, Roy Hibbert," he stated. "It was a good time."
Here's an interview that Cutting Down Nets did with Trawick early last month.
Questions still remain about why Georgetown is recruiting another guard in the Class of 2011 when the Hoyas will have have Jason Clark, Vee Sanford, Markel Starks, and Aaron Bowen, but nonetheless this is a nice get for the program and hopefully the 1st step in what will be a solid Class of 2011.
Hoya saxa.

This time, the Hoya’s came up big and received a commitment from a guard who has NBA potential.

he is a big SG

Good get, hopefully a hopkins commit follows and our class of 2011 will be shaping up
Good talk.

don't mind
landing a wing in this class. would have preferred a 6’7 kid, but this is a nice pick up it seems. 5 guards for two spots is just about right. Bowen likely can slide to the 3 to back up Hollis.
tough kid from a metro area, that needs some polishing. Hopefully Jessie Sapp 2.0 (jessie of the first 3 1/2 years)
Now hopefully can close on Hopkins and find a big to go next to him.
Hopkins can throw a football like a pro
Hopkins sporting the Georgetown Hoyas lid and that kid can throw a football…Austin can flat out catch a football too ahh man….Lumpy was throwing and catching especially from his dad, yeah Lumpy got skills to on gridiron…Bowen got hands too, Markel same thing, I’m glad…yeah I think Hopkins will be a Hoya, he blends in really goooood with the fellas : ) Glidehoyas…

The football team would've killed for AF 15
back in the days when they didn’t receive FCS Top 25 votes.
Austin could make his living as a fullback- he’s made to run a swing route from the backfield

Great young man
Met Jabril yesterday something told me he would committ haha hopefully Mychael Hopkins will too : ) I hope I spelled his name right lol… As far as your question, no brainer, with the way players leave schools to go pro early these days you’d better get everything you can…there’s so much you can do with all players, the shooters do different things, some of our shooter can play more than one position, it creates havoc…Glidehoyas!
Good Brandon?
Or bad Brandon?

funny
looking back at older articles/blurbs, one of the moments that had Trawick pop up on high major alert was this past HS season,leading his team to a win over, guess who, Rakeem Christmas.
Hopkins

Thought you weren't coming back until MM
My handle used to be Jeff Green's Dad, but it was confusing and creepy, namely because I am not his dad. My new handle is JGD. I am trim and in charge.
