Aiden Derkack, a four-star shooting guard in the 2026 class, has received his release from Providence and will reopen his recruitment, he told Rivals.

The Friars will reportedly part ways with head coach Kim English at the end of the season.

Derkack committed to Providence in October and signed with the program in November.

The 6-foot-5 senior out of Spire Academy (OH) is the No. 66 overall recruit in the 2026 class, per the Rivals Industry Ranking. He’s also the No. 17 ranked shooting guard and the No. 4 player in Ohio.


The Colonia, New Jersey native originally chose PC over Dayton and USC, but also received offers Villanova, VCU, Indiana, Maryland, Oklahoma State, Xavier, and several others.

SHU used to be tight with the Colonia hoops scene.

My understanding is that he is a shooting guard who is not a good three point shooter. With all due respect to the young man, we do not need any more recruits who are not shooters. We already have one like that coming in Payday. WE NEED SHOOTERS. THIS IS PLAINLY OBVIOUS.

What we need is a Powell or Hazel who can open the floor and create his own shot from deep and then allow the other guys to drive and kick off necessary. If Clark could even shoot 35% from 3 the season would have been much different.
