Staff has been late in offering a lot of talented youngins this year. Dunno if the JB/Hop situation is making them more hesitant in throwing out early offers at the moment. SU should've been Stewart's 1st offer and lord knows why Cam Reddish still doesn't have one.
Right on
Thomas Bryant was about the same height but didn't have the same type of strength at the same age. If Stewart can grow a few more inches over the years to become at least 6'9, then wowzers!
Who was first to offer? Also, some of his teammates think he will stay 1 more year at McQuaid then go off to prep.
Tennessee made the first offer. Smart move for him to eventually hit the prep level. Basically a man amongst boys in Section V. Needs to play against players his own size and bigger to be fully prepared for high level D1 ball.
Heard he was a close family friend of Stewart's dad. Not sure if he's actually living with him as well.
Wish I knew who that lawyer is ... If he's that "big-time", hard to imagine he'd jaundice the kid like that to satisfy his own college loyalties. Going there would not only condemn the kid to a second-rate conference, it would make the kid disappear on the local sports radar. Very few GT fans in Rochester (a few lawyers, yes, but most of them are not rah rah about sports, thankfully).
Thats why its good that he's getting away and prepping. He will have plenty of time to realize Gtown is not what they use to be. Build relationships at his new school and that will allow him decide on a school he likes.
Holy cow, he is 14? My son turned 14 in April. It is crazy to think that a kid can look like that at 14.
Just recently turned 15.
interesting....
