[Class of '66 Old Fart]

4- star PG Jeremy Fears attends La Lumiere HS and plays AAU for Bradley Beal Elite on the Nike circuit.

Rivals

 

From April 30:  

Jeremy Fears is currently a 4-star recruit and ranked No. 23 nationally by 247Sports.  That service lists him as the No. 7 point guard in the class.  Even though he's a '23, he's playing 'up' with the Bradley Beal AAU team on the EYBL circuit so hopefully when the EYBL circuit starts we'll be able to get some good stats on him.

Sounds like a great visit.  Those were not your run of the mill post visit comments.  They sounded, in the words of Jeremy himself, "Big Time"

Evolve doing work. Feel pretty good about this recruitment, especially if his list doesn’t expand. But who knows, very early for a 2023 kid.

Aden Holloway, top 50ish ‘23 PG from NC, is transferring to La Lumiere. Even by the usual basketball factory standards, La Lumiere has a pretty insane level of talent. They’re gonna have high D1 kids who barely play. Their practices would be more fun to watch than most of their games.

Fears tweeted this morning that he's 6'2" and weighs 175.  247 had him as 6'1" and 165.

I'm going out on a limb here and saying we will get Fears.

I was going to call your prediction "Fearless" but that wouldn't really fit for this recruit.

He grew an inch and gained 10 lbs just from the IU visit? No wonder the family was impressed!

The Jalen Green. 6’4 in HS but listed as 6’5. Then G League ignite bumps him up to 6’6.

Safe to say Fears is the top priority for coach Woodson and staff 

IU’s social media team is doing some work 

not committed

I would love to see the staff tap into the LaLu talent pipeline, lots of tremendous hoopers come out of the program.

I never understood why Archie didn’t try to tap into that program. They even play some games in Indiana and probably go to some other high school games, I’d assume, in Indiana. They actually get to see what basketball means in Indiana….hopefully it is the start of a great relationship

'Mike Woodson All-Stars' board & signage, smart use of a competitive differentiator IMO.  I am sure it will anger some of the old school fans, but with 17 & 18 year olds who want to get to the league this seems like a win.

I can't imagine any old school fans having an issue with it.

I'm definitely old school and it doesn't bother me.
