Same school as Jalen Hood-Schifino. Really really good basketball player. Is this a sign of JHS optimism, or simply someone we saw playing with JHS during the live period that we thought highly of?

Would be great to get them both. Any idea about this recruits outside shot?

[Demo 19,726]

Watched 2 games of Montverde last year, IMG in January and Sunrise in the Geico final. Like Hood-Schifino, Reneau barely played. The level of talent there is just on another level now. They don’t recruit kids anymore.They issue invitations.

In '19-'20 Reneau attended Mater Academy Charter in Hialeah Gardens, FL and led Mater Academy to a 25-5 overall record, 8-2 in district play, and a 6A Regional Finals berth, averaging 21 points and 11 rebounds.  He transferred to Montverde for this past season and played in 22 games averaging 6.1ppg on 69% shooting and was 67% FT.  He only attempted 10 3s and missed them all.  He averaged 4.1 rpg and 1.0 apg.  This was a loaded Montverde team and he averaged just 10 min/game.

Reneau plays AAU for Nighthydras on the EYBL circuit and here's the stats I found for him for last weekend in the Peach Jam qualifying event.  Nighthydras did not qualify for the actual Peach Jam tournament which is currently in progress.

A couple of additional 1st hand observations of Reneau. Otherwise, nothing new.

Rabby said IU is working to get him on campus for a visit.

id love to have Malik in the cream and crimson

With a Sept 1st date it's going to be a hard sell for us to land him.

I agree. But it is interesting he included us knowing he’s committing in a month. Could just be because it’s a fresh offer. Although UVA did offer when we did and they were not included. I think its a stretch that we even have a chance especially with banks on board.

Agreed. The only chance is if they get him on campus and even then it’s an uphill battle.

Brief comments on his final 7.

Indiana: “Coach Mike Woodson is preaching his pro-style offense . He’s been there, he knows what it takes to get there, just preaching that pro-style offense and really his development, how he developed his forwards and have his players trust in him on and off the court.”

[ap2345 7,600]

It doesn´t sound like he´s going to visit. I honestly think it´s between Miami and Florida State.

So...another Montverde player...any chance of an Official Visit here?

If so, could get interesting. We need two more bigs for next year I would think.

I don't think so, but if they were willing to take Brice, they'd love to have Reneau and so would I.  But, My GUESS is no.
