Per his twitter we’ve offered 22 CG Sencire Harris

Though I wonder if it’s legit as none of the normal twitter outlets have reported it

Yeah he doesn’t have an offer. There’s a lot of that about now. Kids get carried away. Houstan is the only '22 with a UVA offer.

This is impressive. Seen a lot of kids claim offers they didn’t have over the years. Some innocent miscommunications, others just making it up. Never seen one own it. :clap:

Could actually be something that impresses Coach Bennett, tbh.

Corey Evans on why he put in the forecast for Isaac McKneely.

“I placed a FutureCast for Virginia for McKneely, but that does not equate to an imminent commitment… there is still some time to go before he shuts things down. However, I have a feeling that he has a strong affection for the Wahoos and seeing that they are one of the closest high-majors in proximity to him, and that his high school program runs comparable offensive sets that UVA does, there are some things working in Virginia’s favor.”

Like the Matt Mooney comparison, spot on. I know UVA is gonna put the Kyle Guy film on when he visits again but he’s a little different. Doesn’t have Kyle’s quick twitch. Little more physical though and a legit combo guard like Mooney.

How is he different from McCorkle?

Little quicker, can play on the ball. Next generation of the same role though.

HGN, referring back to your comment that (paraphrasing) it’ll be interesting who we prioritize between McKeely and Justin Taylor which I essentially took as “2 guys for 1 spot”. Is there a pathway where we could take both, or are their skill sets too similar and the current roster makeup too crowded for redundancy? Thanks

Probably not getting both, right. Would have other needs. McKneely is reminiscent of Casey Morsell at this point. As much as could be without there being any activity anyway. They even tuned into the stream to watch him over the weekend. Clearly the guy they’re most interested in, likely to be the focus when they get into 2022. But remember Casey wasn’t actually offered until he visited in September after they had a better idea of what they’d get in the previous class.

Cavs Corner story on Tyler Nickel.

With his size, and still 2 yrs of HS left, is Nickel a likely stretch 4?

Big fan of the Nickel kid. I could see TB showing him tape of Joe Harris. But this kid has more athleticism. It’s early but can imagine the transition at that position from Hauser to Trey Murphy to Nickel.
