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.

Thanks Matt. I’m most proud of transferring his highlights from HUDL to youtube so it would embed into the blog. Did it all by myself, no help from Boxley.
Joe did do the pic editing, and the scholarship chart though. Takes him like 30 seconds, it’s wild to me.

I was a big Sixers fan in those days! Tim McCormick was another teammate. He once stopped at a gas station in Moneta, Virginia. Being a Sixers fan and considering his height, I knew he was a player but got him confused with Mark McNamara. However, he was nice and provided me with his autograph.

There is another Blake Buchanan who is a runner… and his nickname is “The Beast”… let us hope that moniker is something that resembles our Blake as well.

Player comp: Ethan Happ with a jumper. (I doubt he has Happ’s game inside the key, but looks like he has a much better jumper). I know this seems like a lazy comparison, but he sort of moves a bit like Happ.
@UVApride7 beat me to it:

I strongly recommend against the number 8 for him.
