BK is not a man of many words
If he is optimistic then so am I. B

GT has a pretty good history with PG's from the NY. Hopefully RU can push this across the finish line. Pikiell is certainly opening doors we haven't had before.
Again good news for RU with the quick announcement...
Just to be clear...nothing definitive. But this ones got lots of positive momentum right now...

RUC
I'm not raining on anyone's parade------he's a good player.
Like most frosh I just don't think he's going to walk in and instantly make a difference.
He's a kid who will come in and give you minutes and not hurt you.
There's nothing wrong with that.

Thinking that getting this kid, a quality PG who dishes may help in the important 2018 recruiting class... hope 247 sports is right in their prediction
I don't follow recruiting so i am getting my info on what i read here. With that said this is the exactly the type of a kid that this program needs. Glue over glitter and sparkle.
He has talent, but his court smarts and the fact that he wont get outworked are what sets him apart.
Damn? I wonder what they think of Connecticut and UConn? Southern arrogance against Yankee know how!!
Spot on. This is the top reasoning for why he is needed at RU. He will take things personally, and not fall off over 4 years. Sure, he is a smaller point guard, probably 5 9 at best, but still, he is going to work.
A lot of his games he was rebounding. I want to see him let the 3 down do the rebounding, and him stay little behind half court. Outlet pass, GO!
or just
Go!
Could be a lightning rod quick and gutsy player like a Tyus Jones at Duke, or Tyler Ulis Kentucky...neither were very big but both controlled the game in college
Regardless of Alvarado's exact height, (and you can usually take what's reported regarding that kind of thing with a grain of salt), the kid's a warrior and relentless and absolutely refuses to be outworked or outplayed. He's a statement recruit that would show that the B'ball times at RU are, indeed, a'changin'.
Keeping my fingers crossed, (and anything else it's possible to keep crossed without causing bodily injury), that by this time tomorrow night he'll be a Scarlet Knights commit!

Uh oh...
I'm glad I didn't Lance Thomas this one...doubts creeping back in...hope like hell I'm wrong!
Pikiell is working his tail off on this one. If we lose out, it's not for lack of trying

Got a little concerned when I read his twitter page. Someone posted that it looks like a battle of NJ for Jose. The next entry by him was not to take anything for granted.
Hoping still. He and Baker would make a nice backcourt for 4 years here.

Early congrats. Nice work by pikiel. Lots of hall fans like him
Everything seems to point to Alvarado to Rutgers. I love everything I read about him, and would love to have him at The Hall, but it doesn't appear as if it's to be.
We need him in the fold knowing we have a quality PG could attract 2018 recruits to RU!! Probably why coach is working his butt off!!
Kid reminds me of Otis Livingston out of Linden, NJ who Eddie Jordan passed up on last year.
Both undersized guards (5'11, 160) who make up for it with high basketball IQ and great play making ability.
Still boggles my mind that RU didn't even offer Livingston but would be nice to get Alvarado especially with the likelihood of Sanders leaving after this year or the next.
