Jair Bolden - 6'4" PG originally from Brooklyn. Plays AAU for the NY JAYHAWKS. High hoops IQ, runs the offense effectively and is a team leader. Has really developed his game in the last year. Offers from BU, LaSalle, Penn State, Rice, JMU and Hofstra. Getting looks from Maryland, Arizona St., Oklahoma, St. Joe's, Stanford and Virginia.
Chuba Ohams - 6'7" SG/SF, originally played at Salesian, then transferred to Wadleigh. Good shooter that can get to the rim and finish through contact. Slashes and likes to finish above the rim. Good length and a very good defender. Tough on the offensive glass and gets lots of put backs. Has offers from Liberty, North Dakota State URI and LIU.

Hunter Janacek - 6'4" SG - Smart player with good court vision who can shoot the three and can use either hand to finish. Has offers from Texas Rio Grande Valley, Lamar and Houston Baptist. Nebraska showing interest.
@therecruitscoop: 2016 in-state guard Tyrone Cohen is visiting Iona today, per a source.
Tyrone Cohen is a 6'4" SG/SF from Christ the King and the NY Rens AAU. A lefty that is a good shooter, has a good handle, with good hops that is tough off the offensive glass. Good defender and a high hoops IQ. Very underrated IMHO... also very unselfish player. Played everywhere on the court for CTK this year.
Times Leger All-Queens Honorable Mention Selection this year. NYS Federation Tournament of Champions All-Tournament Team. Daily News All-Queens boys basketball - Second Team
When Rawle Alkins struggled in the Class AA semifinal game against LI Lutheran, Cohen took over and dropped 19 points and grabbed 7 rebounds to pull out a come from behind win. Not a fluke performance as he had dropped 17 and grabbed 8 boards in an earlier matchup with Lutheran. I expect a huge senior year from this kid. Has an offer from Fairfield and Yale and looks from BU, American, Cincinnati, Columbia, GWU, Harvard, Hofstra, Loyola (MD), Quinny, Temple and Vermont.
Hoop Group @thehoopgroup May 16 New York Rens forward Kai Mitchell is very hard to stop in the paint. The Class of 2016 Iona Commit can score in bunches. #HGJamFest
