Gotta love that he mentioned IU first. IU and Texas were the only ones he didn't have to think about. Sounds like it's down to 3 schools and more likely just 2.

Is there a what-a-burger franchise in Indiana?

Nope. Missouri is the closest.  Texas has over 700 What A Burger locations as well as the 2nd most IN N Out locations.   I think I’m moving…

This is in no way a surprise.  He's a native of Texas and we knew this was inevitable.  Hopefully, we'll weather the storm.

Nothing terribly notable other than his intention to make a fall decision, which was always pretty clear.

I'm thinking he goes to Texas but I'd love to land him.  Hopefully we can get him on campus for an official visit.

He took a junior official and has already said  he’s planning to take a senior visit. The geographical pull may well be too strong, but when he talks IU, and I’m not usually this guy, it absolutely sounds different.

Also him going to Montverde shows he is willing to leave the state of Texas

I would also like to land him but after reading interviews in which he said he loves Austin.and he is from Texas, I don’t think we have more than a 20% chance. Hope I’m wrong.

Being the team to beat to land top 10 burger boys is definitely something I could get used to

"I talk to the coaches at Indiana every day," McNeeley said at Nike's EYBL event in Dallas last weekend. "They keep on me, I keep up with them. We talk all the time and they let me know how much they want me."

Clearly preparing for the B1G.

Given the nature of travel ball, this is a fairly astonishing stat profile. 
Side note: McNeeley’s mom is in the replies. Doubt she’s 40. Sometimes lose sight of how young these kids are.

He should be the top priority for this class
