I wrote about Ralph last month after he was offered. Talked to his former AAU coach in Bermuda. Fast-rising prospect. He went to Boeheim camps as a youngster: 4-star offered by Syracuse basketball this month went to Boeheim camps as a youngster
Well, Brian Kelly might be getting involved in hoops.Interesting development.
His AAU coach Doug is a good guy and was fundamentally sound as a player from what I remember. He was a walk on at Cuse during the mid 80s. His relationship with Coach Boeheim helped with getting Ralph to the camps and I hope the ties will give us an edge in landing the kid.I wrote about Ralph last month after he was offered.

Well said, my friend. I texted with Doug earlier this week (I'm waiting for him to invite me to Bermuda for some R&R). He continues to hope that Ralph picks Syracuse, but he isn't pressuring him in any way whatsoever. When I told him that Ralph had set an OV to 'Cuse, Doug was happy, needless to say!!!His AAU coach Doug is a good guy and was fundamentally sound as a player from what I remember.

Welp.
Welp.
Surprised how we dropped the ball here by not getting involved earlier. He was known to us and been to a few camps as a youngster. The affiliation was there through his AAU coach.We got involved late here. Not surprised.
