I don't think this kid is Kovien, Kovien was in a class all by himself. We all know Mooney's late spring signings out of the blue are usually of the roster filler variety, so I think it is a natural reaction to say here we go again.
That said, he decommitted in mid April and was immediately offered by 8 D-1 schools. Mainly Northeastern based schools that were probably pretty familiar with him already. So, there was instant demand for him among schools that were probably either recruiting him or recruiting players he played against.
I like that he was the NESPAC Player of the Year for his class, led his team to the state championship, scoring 42 in the semi-final and 26 in the final, against what appears to be some pretty good competition.
Also like that he went from 5'11 as a sophomore to his current 6'3, so late bloomer, maybe he grows a bit more. And you watch his game and I think he fits what we want to do on the offense. Really good shooter, he has some hops and can take it to the hole, his coach says he can guard multiple positions.
Does this all translate to an impact player in the A-10, I don't know. But I think it is worthy of a flyer, particularly as we sit here in late May with a couple open scholarships.
