Vijay Blackmon - Valpo U Strength & Conditioning Coach

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,777]

Purely out of curiosity, and because it's reached the point where every game is potentially his last high school, anyone hearing anything on where he may be headed this fall?

At least Gelon has the potential to be a Roth/Zeisloft/Hornsby role player as a stand still shooter. 

 

Vijay will never be an alpha dog at a high major, and I have a hard time seeing what role he could carve out.

 

Maybe lockdown defender? :)

From the Marion Chronicle-Tribune:

Vijay Blackmon to attend IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla. for a post-graduate season of basketball before enrolling in college.

For what it's worth, Vijay signed at St. Francis (IN) in mid-August to play ball.

I'll likely hear on the radio soon if it's public.

I was fortunate to have a strength coach who invested in me during my time as a player. With my new opportunity as Valparaiso Head Men’s Basketball strength and conditioning coach I am blessed to invest in a program based on results and building relationships
