I’m not sure a Tobey comparison is fair to either player. They seemed very different to me. Of course, a lot of that has to do with the fact that I watched Tobey playing college defenders, and what little I’ve seen of Buchanan has been against high schoolers. That said, Buchanan looks much quicker and more fluid with the ball than did Tobey. In fact, from the few clips I’ve seen of him, Buchanan reminds me a bit of Bobby Jones. I don’t know if he has that sort of vertical leap, but there it is. The upside to this comparison is that I don’t know how many people here have ever seen Bobby Jones play so I am unsure if anyone can correct me! :slight_smile:

Maybe way off here but maybe like a Zubac type of guy? Like I don’t think Blake projects to be a star at any one thing but should be a guy who does so much right, especially if surrounded by complimentary pieces

Is Buchanan the first UVA basketball player from Idaho?

Now I’m wondering what states we’ve had players from and which we’re still missing. This will be a good rabbit hole to go down…

I remember 2 Tennesseeans recently. One of them only lasted a game though.

Pretty sure Braxton Key was in Nashville before going to OHA his Sr year.

FWIW, looks like 4 of the first people to post on BB’s IG commitment post were the 2022 class/incoming FR. Have a feeling this group will be tight like 2016.
