Georgetown Offers Ryan Arcidiacono, Guard from Class of 2012

Adam Zagoria is reporting that Georgetown has offered a scholarship to Ryan Arcidiacono, a point guard from Langhorne, PA.  Arcidiacono, listed at 6'4'', 180lb, is ranked as the 45th best player and 7th best guard in the Class of 2012 by Rivals.

Star-divide

ESPN had the following to say about the gent:

There may not be another point guard in the country who can match Arcidiacano's combination of tools and basketball savvy. His unwavering confidence is a double edged sword because it is a big part of what makes so good and also his biggest weakness.

To date, he has netted offers from Villanova, Georgetown, Boston College, Notre Dame, Wake Forest and others.  Zagoria reports that Kansas, UNC and Pittsburgh are showing interest.

Too early to tell anything at this point, but Thompson the Third and staff are certainly in front of the top players from the Class of 2012.  Whether that means we are poised for a great recruiting class or future disappointment has yet to be determined.  I haven't given up hope for a solid recruiting class in 2011 and certainly expect big things from the Class of 2012.  Yes, I am aware that I am delusional.

Looks like he also has an offer from Florida, so I'm not sure what our chances really are with this kid.

 He’s not exactly the type of player that usually walks through Healy Gates.

Casually.

Time will tell

Let’s see how Nate deals with the abuse at the Verizon Center this year and then we’ll know if we’ll ever see another recruit of pallor on the Hilltop.

Question

Is it Loo-bic

or

Lub-bic

I was confused by Wright’s pronunciation

I think it should be the latter

That sounds like lube

Already came up with

“Quaker, Steak and Lubick”
“Jiffy Lubick”

and…possibly…but probably not “Everything goes smoother with Lubick.”

DON’T TAKE THAT AWAY FROM ME, JGD!

Why so Syracuse?

No worries

I wouldn’t want to waste a perfectly good Friday night on a sign that might get taken away at the door.

Maybe for one of those five-sign big games.

Why so Syracuse?

Arcidiacono has deep ties to Villanova

Both of Arcidiacono’s parents are Villanova alumni. His dad was captain of the Nova Football team and played defensive end opposite Howie Long. He is from Newtown area where Jay Wright grew up and he led his Newtown Parish to a CYO state championship as an 8th grader.
This comes down to Villanova and whatever other Catholic University this kid likes…probably Notre Dame based on his positive comments about the Irish so far.
