UVA has about a trillion scholarships to offer in its Class of 2018, so the net Bennett casts will be incredibly wide. I wouldn't expect it to go beyond interest, but it's great to see a local kid get any attention from major programs.

I wouldn't expect it to go beyond interest, but it's great to see a local kid get any attention from major programs. UVA is such a good program, I'll be surprised if we don't see Bennett start landing top 25 classes and classes full of top 200 recruits. No offense at all to McClung, but he isn't quite in that group. Tech is a different scenario, they don't have the recognition that UVA has right now, but it's a program currently ranked and headed in the right direction. If McClung got an offer there, he'd be foolish not to attempt it bc it's ACC basketball, if he can cut it there he can play anywhere.

Ryan4VT 4,557 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 I doubt he gets an offer from VT... This. He's a GREAT player, but even VT may be a step too high for him. In the upcoming class for VT, the Hokies have 2 commits, and are ranked 35th in the country. Nickeil Alexander-Walker is the 36th ranked player in the country and Wabissa Bede is the 69th ranked player in the country. This isn't quite your VT of old. UVA is currently 125th, but with only 1 commit. I expect that to change immensely. GMan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiverRat24 274 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 I myself think UVA and VT is probably a stretch....But I heard today from an individual that was with the recruiter for UVA and he claims that UVA is really considering offering. However, they didn't say which one. And by that, evidently the guy wasnt just checking in on Mac...They are evalutaing Zac as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMan 3,569 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 I think his peak is mid-tier D-1, he's definitely a Miami (OH)/Marshall type player...but it is still D-1... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're at the point where we're redshirting #72 and #73 from the Class of 2016. All 4 of our incoming guys were Top 100, and I would expect that to hold in 2018, too.
