Looks pretty good in youtube highlights below, though such clip highlights are just that of course -- a player's best moments. Point guard for an under .500 Ivy League team this year, 2nd-team all-conference (first team is just five guys, unlike the Pac 12; also, injured his ankle, missed time, wasn't 100% when he came back so maybe if not for that, he would have been 1st team).
Anyway, don't know how well he'd translate into a more competitive conference, but 42.2% from the 3 last year and about 85% from free throw line over three years, so sounds like he can definitely shoot the rock. In high school, he led the state of California in scoring his senior year with a 31-point per game average. No. 2 all-time scorer in Ventura County, behind Don MacLean. Went head-to-head against Jaquez in high school.
Kansas wasn't in that tweet, but article I saw says they've reached out to him (Indiana too). On our side are that he's from Thousands Oaks and that he's in the transfer portal because he'll be a grad student and Penn doesn't let grad students play so maybe he's not looking for a big NIL payday. Obviously, we'd have to get him through our grad school hoops, but he was Academic All Ivy so you'd hope that wouldn't be an issue.
We seem a more logical destination than the other schools on that tweet's list, but I'd think he'd want to start. If Mack stays, would he? Would Cronin start two small guards, both seemingly point guards?
