made big jump last year-was originally a football recruit at Boston College

I don't have an exact interest list but there are a bunch of stories on the internet that a bunch of top programs are looking at him--Duke, Memphis(visit), Ole Miss(visit), Wake Forest(visit), Xavier(visit), Penn St(visit)

kid appears to have decent NBA 3 point range--may challenge McMurray for long distance

I notice he had a 14 game double figures streak mid-season where he was averaging about 18 a game-then he missed 2 games (injury?) and dropped off a little bit. Could be even better than his numbers if there was a health reason. See ESPN stats link above

Looks like he would be a great addition. Would be nice to finally hear some good news on the recruiting front.

Just hope 247 doesn't put a Crystal Ball pick on any since they have missed on the last several for us.

Story lists him as #10 on the roster. By my count it's #9 solid, 10 if you count Jarrey.

My optimism for 2018-19 is slowly returning.

here is a pretty extensive resume from Chattanooga. The stat that sticks out to me is that he was averaging 18.2 ppg during a 14 game stretch before missing 2 games and then dropping off.

In high school he averaged 28.5 ppg as only a high school junior and then concentrated on football as a Senior. -good enough athlete to get a CB football scholarship to an AAC school like Boston College

Basically received All state consideration in 3 sports including 2013 District Champion in the high jump…third in the long jump (22’3.5”) and fourth in the high jump (6’6”) in the 2014 FHSAA Class 3A State Championships. Those are quality-albeit not elite track records but I seldom see Basketball kids excelling on the track team

Still uncertain are both Agau and Jarrey.

If both stay we have one more. If one goes we have two. If both go....well...you can do the math! :wink:
