For Woody to offer a little guard he must be uniquely skilled.

Thinking there's not much going on between this recruit and IU.

As unofficial president of his fan club, I'm just slightly biased.  He's one hardnosed player when he's on the court.

Breaking my heart that this recruitment never went anywhere.  In an update from Dushawn London, he reported Virginia, Virginia Tech, Nova, Tennessee & Maryland are the schools who've been recruiting Mallory for the longest time and have demonstrated the most consistent interest.

He's 5' 9". I'm ok with not making the cut.

Ordinarily I’m with you. He doesn’t profile like my kind of guard at all. But that kid is just dynamic and wherever he lands he’s gonna be a problem. I’m really glad there’s no Maryland involved here. He needs to be out of the B1G.

[BA47591]

I love big guards but every once in a while one comes along that I consider an exception. This is one of those cases. I think with our depth at the position we should punt to 26" and dbl down on Kenney. 

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

I’m heartbroken even though I knew we’d never get him.  I hope we never have to face him on the court.

This kid is the best pg in the country. I like Kayden Mingo alot too. But I prefer table setters that don't turn the ball over and defend their position at a high level. I've never been able to call a guy dominating the ball and leading a team in shot attempts a point guard.

Committed to UVA.

Virginia Commit 2025 4 Chance Mallory tells me he is still unsure of what he will do regarding his commitment. This is following Tony Bennetts retirement.
