I have no idea what to make of this.  On the surface, it would appear he's transferring to yet another high school.   If so, Cardinal Ritter College Prep is located in St. Louis.

Weird. There are several very good basketball prep schools in and around St Louis. But Ritter ain’t one of ‘em.

If he's on the move again, that's a red flag to me to make that many changes as a high school student.

I don't have stats to back this up and IU doesn't typically land guys like this but it seems like the guys who move around a lot in HS continue to do so in college. So I agree with it being a red flag.

2027 Malachi Jordan tells @LeagueRDY  he’s been hearing from these schools since the contact period began last weekend:   We're included along with 8 other high majors.

Announced he's transferring to Dream City Christian in Glendale, AZ

No mention of IU, but he's just a '27 so lots of time left if we really want to pursue.

Starting to feel like this might be 1 of those recruitments that’s a higher staff priority than we think it is.
