Duquesne is currently hosting a class-of-2025 prospect for an official visit.
The Dukes are hosting Jordan Tillery, a 6-foot-5 small forward out of Orlando, Florida. Tillery is a three-star prospect, ranking as the No. 51 small forward in the nation and the No. 21 prospect in the state of Florida.
He is playing for the IMG Academy Post Grad squad this upcoming school season. According to Adam Zagoria, Tillery also had plans to visit Saint Louis and Seton Hall this fall. He also mentioned to Zagoria that Arkansas State, VCU, and Western Kentucky — in addition to Seton Hall, Saint Louis, and the Dukes — were recruiting him hardest.
Tillery officially received an offer from Duquesne on July 16, 2024.
This news comes just two days after the Dukes’ staff offered a junior prospect, James Turner, out of Kentucky. He plays his high-school ball for Newport and his summer ball for Wildcat Select, a program based in the Western PA region.
Turner is unranked on 247 Sports, but holds other Division One offers from Penn State, Rhode Island, Kent State, College of Charleston, Stony Brook, Radford, IU-Indianapolis, and Jackson State.
The Dukes’ staff has offered four players since the beginning of August: Tyler, Turner, Aaron Ekwere, and Logan Johnson. The staff also offered six players throughout July, three players in June, and three players in May. One of the players that received an offer from the staff in May was Arness Lawson, who recently committed to the Dukes after taking an official visit.
