This isn't another Austin Van Zyl situation is it?

Doc maybe you nailed it.  I found this comment on the July 14, 2019 New England Recruiting Report.

The Mass Rivals had an inspired run this week that led them to the Elite 8 of the Adidas Summer Championships before falling in a heartbreaker to Garner Road, 55-54. They opened the week with pool play wins over Exum Elite and Game Elite JB. Jordan Geronimo exploded for 26 points against Exum, in what would spark a breakout week for the rising senior.

Must be a breakout kid.

Live period is all about complete. Caleb Murphy, Jordan Geronimo, Kerwin Walton & Isa Silva among the top stock boosters and standouts. Each have already seen a bump in recruitment and should see bevy of offers roll in this week

Who has stood out at adidas thus far? Isa Silva could not have enhanced his stock anymore; Dalen Terry is an elite defender; Jordan Geronimo has 3-and-D potential; Andre Curbelo is a premier college PG; lastly, Kerwin Walton has made 15 3s in 2 games-you do the math

Normally I try to put a positive spin on things but I notice that he is in the same class in height/weight as Galloway and Leal. I’m not going to freak out and say maybe we aren’t in as good as a position with them as we think, but with Geronimo the class would be three recruits of similar ilk. Positionless basketball theory? Maybe. It can’t hurt to be in early on a late, fast riser. I really don’t know how to feel about this one in the overall concept, not necessarily in his perceived skill set.

I think we’ve seen Archie offer similarly related recruits to “nudge” a preferred candidate in the right direction (IU). I believe it happened with Aaron Henry / Jerome Hunter / Damezi Anderson and to some extent with RP and James Akinji

This is where I am at as well with a lot of the recent offers & interest - Arch is trying to close up Leal, Galloway & Cross by the early signing period.

Interesting indeed. We locked up Galloway and Leal but we’re still getting a visit from Geronimo. Could we possibly take three 6-4 to 6-5 wings in the same class? I don’t see it happening but who knows. We’d be super crowded with 6 (Anderson, Hunter, Franklin, Galloway, Leal, and Geronimo) in 3 classes. That could be great depth or lead to frustrated players waiting their turn as upperclassmen.

Or Archie is preparing for somebody to leave

Cross is a 6’7” wing that can probably play some 4. Maybe Geronimo is option 2 for Cross if it appears Cross is leaning South.

Not a true replacement player but it makes you wonder.

Oh that’s fair. I had been told that Cross was a pure 4. But haven’t seen much of him
