State of the Trail Report

Your post would suggest that adding one of the players we’re involved with this spring and reducing our needs in 2021 would be advantageous in the long term given the current situation. Would you agree with that and do you feel now that it’s more likely that we take someone this spring than you did a couple of weeks ago?

Yeah it would advantageous long term to fill one now. Assuming you get a quality player obviously. I didn’t think of that. It’s a good point. The thing is I don’t think they see Murphy or Wertz as filling those spots. They’re more like potential transfer insurance.

Gotcha. Thanks.

I agree Daniel G. I’ve seen him in UVA apparel several times.Dont know that it means anything but I sure am glad he is not wearing something from another team

Since there’s nothing else going on, let’s over analyze this edit DaRon Holmes mom tweeted. I think if he were picking a top 5 it’d be the ones surrounding his head. UCLA Virginia Arizona Marquette Kansas. That’s all i got.

Off topic but I read on another board that Murphy favors Nova. That’s the only place I’ve seen it and I’m not sure how reputable the source would be. Any thoughts?

Could absolutely be. I really don’t know. Other than UVA apparently decided they wanted him and made the short list.

Does anyone consider 15 colleges? I think everyone has an idea of 4 or 5 before they even start. This is bullshit!

Yeah, this stuff is dumb in my opinion. I dislike immensely this whole “Top X” crap. Just my comment.

You sure it wouldn’t be Pepperdine instead

I don’t know that I’d take that as he’s actually seriously considering them all probably just that he’s gotten offers from them. Parents like to be proud of their kids, probably just wanted to put all or a bunch of the offers on the edit.

This is a huge offer for an in-state '21 PG we’ve looked at a little. I did not see this coming.

Ha thanks. HMU man. I’ll make you a cool thing as if you were picking where to go again.

Still lame IMHO

That dude is from Monterey, VA…More sheep in that county then people. And he is unranked on 247…wonder how underrated he could be? But I also question whether he is playing any real competition being from Monterey. Either way, Good for him!

HGN, I believe your right and I also believe that placement around his head was no coincidence

I asked Houston Wilson, covers the region for Prep Hoops. He said Villanova has been on him quietly for a while. They were expecting it. His first high major offer. Nova had been evaluating a bunch of '21 PGs, some highly rated. He’s the first they’ve offered. Good for him. I get asked about him a lot from local people there, lots of UVA fans in the area.
