Outside UVA recruiting 2023-2024

Might be little different - when a rumor is someone is going somewhere that has more championships than anyone else the last 30 years and is 4th all time in titles.

Flagg is a Dukie. He just has that pouty faced look down

Jahseem Felton to Seton Hall (?)

Definitely thought he was a kid we recruit early on. Not the most fluid mover but skilled. But never really produced in aau. Definitely an early riser whose stock fell

Hoping this kid has a Raymond career and not a Jalek career as someone that grew up a UNC fan

Boogie Fland to Kentucky instead of Indiana tomorrow. A lot of last night prayers resulting in kids changing where they are going at the last moment. Very interesting trend indeed…

Just saw that – KY better hope they’re top 10 this year, because :grimacing: for next year. Maybe Reed Sheppard would be interested in the portal here after all. :joy:

Boogie has a world of talent, and from what I watched this summer, not yet a clear idea of what he should be doing with any of it.

Agree with this:

Fland’s current battle is with consistency of performance.

Reed Sheppard seems to have loved Kentucky his entire life. He is never going to transfer.

I watched Boogie during the Peach Jam and he was not impressive. He may be the player of the year but he shot about every time he touched the ball and very few went in

Rodney rice apparently leaving tech

What a huge loss that would be. Could easily be the difference between them making the tournament and not.

Yikes. Realistically should have transferred with his assistant coach to Maryland over the summer, especially since Maryland needs guards (they might straight up start both Deshawn Harris Smith and Jamie Kaiser in their scrimmage for us, the two freshmen alongside that stud pg they poached from Sanchez and Charlotte two years ago).

Huge loss for Tech. Realistically could have been their top scorer this season. Puts a lot of pressure on Collins to step up this year.

Oh man they are going to stink haha. Love it

Edit: this cracked me up even though Arvin seems like a good guy

ā€œPretty sure Arvin doesn’t know since he is batting well below the Mendoza line on anything related to recruiting or VT basketball roster updatesā€

Literally the sell on Tech being better than expected was Rice being as good as advertised. He looked solid down the stretch last year. Without him they are left with Collins playing big minutes and frankly, he looked awful last year. He’s not a scorer and unless he learned to shoot, that’s a huge loss.

They did insinuate this was playing time related so maybe he was getting beat out. Who knows.

Were they going to start Pedulla, Cattoor and Rice together? I’m sure they promised him he’d start and play as much as he wants in order to get him to commit and now they can’t actually follow through but yeah maybe he just isn’t very good

I don’t buy that he’s not good. He’s a scorer and has the highest ceiling of anyone on that roster. There’s gotta be something more to this.

Watched him last year against state and begrudgingly was really impressed / thought he could develop into their best or most important player for 2023
