A lot of great schools on his list but only one made him a clear priority seems like that and academics was the difference here...

Excellent, excellent news. I still want to beef up the 2017 class, but getting a commitment from a Waters-level recruit is more than I thought was possible in the 2017 class. Great work by the staff.

The Corey Evans tweet is key - this kid will play nasty G-fense to go with his smooth shooting and offensive tool kit.

Before yesterday, how many of us honestly thought we had a chance here?
Excellent news. Hopefully Waters can be an anchor recruit used to bring in a solid class.

Love going back through a thread and reading the evolution of a young man's recruitment. Looking forward to seeing what was said along the way.
Great to hear he chose Hoyas.

In this case, bird in hand was not worth two in the bush. Great job by staff.

Seems like a very thoughtful, well spoken young man. And you have to know without the IAC we would have had no shot here. It's really great to win one for a change.

I think this calls for one of these: They make a Brown's Ale up here in the Albany area (actually in Troy!) - would make a nice pairing!
