Duquesne was scheduled to host Dezmon Briscoe, a four-star prospect with the Dukes in his top-schools list, for an official visit this past weekend.
The visit did not end up happening, as the Dukes and Briscoe agreed to move the date back. No need to worry Duquesne fans, as Briscoe told Pittsburgh Sports Now that he will be taking the official visit to Duquesne from Sept. 13-15.
Duquesne basketball on Pittsburgh Sports Now is sponsored by The Summit Academy: setting young men on the path to a better future.
Briscoe is a four-star forward prospect in the class of 2025 out of Crispus Attucks High School in Indianapolis, Indiana. The 6-foot-8 big is ranked as the No. 118 prospect in America by 247 Sports’ Composite Rankings, and the No. 7 prospect in the state of Indiana.
In July, he released his top-schools list, which included Duquesne. Briscoe’s list wasn’t any ordinary top-six list. The Dukes were the only mid-major level team to make the list. Along with DePaul, Xavier, Cincinnati, Iowa, and Butler, Duquesne made the cut.
Shortly after Briscoe released his top list, he joined PSN on The Pittsburgh Basketball Show to break down why he included the Dukes in his list.
