Night shift at work so wasting time on recruiting as always in the downtime. Will be interesting to see if this kid, Bryce Dortch, is someone Tony visits in September. This kid is so well-spoken. He even said, when asked about his role at the next level “High energy off the bench”. Not “40 minutes a game day 1”.
6’9 bouncy forward who shoots 3s. What makes him interesting though is that his contact from UVA wasn’t just an assistant who watched and liked him. It was Tony watching him play vs ElMarko in game one of that Northeast Weekend and telling staff “We need to follow up with that kid”.
Year old highlights (only thing I could find other than clips. Obviously he’s more filled out now and can violently dunk). Trey Murphy would probably be our pitch to him.
I believe “I’m okay with coming off the bench” translates to “my dad will be gauging interest from other schools in the transfer market December my first year”
Nothing substantial in the article itself but just highlights that in 2024 we are going to go head to head with Villanova a lot. a LOT of overlap in targets and recruits being mentioned with.
Grew up right near Archbishop Stepinac and have seen them play a lot. That 2024 Boogie Fland is the best player I have ever seen suit up for them, including the Griffin brothers (AJ/Adrian) and RJ Davis. In my completely unqualified opinion, he’s going to be a stud wherever he goes (hopefully not an ACC competitor).
Ill give them credit though. They do get a lot of the kids to actually visit though. Not sure if that’s a good thing or a bad thing.
Also I just realized that Angelo Brizzi possibly transferring from Villanova might help us with Abraham even if we dont target him in the portal. Talks about how they are from the same town and went to the same HS before Abraham transferred to PVI this year (Ive seen Abraham and his dad like Brizzi tweets). Also saw on the NOVA board not many of their fans expect Brizzi to make the rotation and stud combo guard Mark Armstrong to man the pg spot. We’ll see how patient Brizzi is. This is his first year coming off a redshirt
Think this is one of Kyle Getter’s kids. Put a lot of west coast kids on our radar when Getter went to that mega tournament in Arizona to watch Blake Buchanan. Just one of the ten trillion wings on our radar.
He’s in that 20-25 range. Duke already has like 6 targets at his spot ahead of him LOL. Might as well try as long as Duke and Kentucky havent been told no by the top 10 kids they are after
