This one certainly feels like a thing. Has already made multiple visits. Pretty gushy about IU in a couple of different interviews. I believe it was Hulls that watched him at an NXT event this summer when there was literally no other kid there with IU interest.

The evolution of offense is being reflected in the recruiting.

Just got done watching Chronister on back to back nights and, man, will I be sorry if he ends up somewhere else. He’s not gonna light youtube on fire. He’s not some 1 and done #1 option on a natty contender. He’s just a freaking winning player. He’s incredibly aware and he makes right play after right play after right play. Perfect example and when I fell in love with the kid: He’s running the baseline of a 1-3-1 set when his incredibly selfish PG, not a fan of that kid, breaks the play and drives to the rim. Every other player for both teams converges in the lane, including both of Sunrise’s wings. Chronister reads the situation and circles back to balance the floor. He just did that stuff over and over. He does not make mistakes. Also, never stops communicating. Constantly directing guys. He’s a little streaky as a shooter because he occasionally has some backward lean. But that’s easily correctable and when he’s vertical he can really shoot it. Whomever the HC is in April, God, I hope they stay on him.

The above post was brought to you by the president of the Aidan Chronister Fan Club.    We do have existing offers out to some very talented '26 players.  It will be interesting to see just who our next coach prioritizes.  Will it be any of the existing offers or a totally new slate?

Guilty as charged. Love him. Also gonna predict that he’s not at Sunrise next year. Kid looks miserable playing with those guys and it’s not helped by having a PG who really, really thinks he’s Ja Morant and really, really isn’t.

Man was I fooled by the off-season.

Darius Acuff doing Darius Acuff things. Tell ya what,  1 of the funniest things in basketball last year was IMG games and watching Khani Rooths glaring at Acuff as he’d just remorselessly chuck shots.

Looks like he's off to a good start this year.

Yeah, transferring to New School in Fayetteville, AR for his senior year. Unsurprising.

Wonder if Rod Clark's connections to Sunrise Christian helps or hurts here?
