He would be a great addition to our team, but he is going to be very highly sought after, so it'll be tough.

Get creative here. Maybe have the creative writing dept. professor mock up a quick story about the kid and have Pat deliver it. I am pretty sure most schools won't go to that level of coordination between the athletic & academic depts.

Does Gtown have a top creative writing program? Unlike most graduate transfers, Towns isn’t just looking for a basketball team to play in next year. He’d like to find a school with a creative-writing program in which he can work toward a master's degree.
He likes to quote Ralph Waldo Emerson (Harvard, Class of 1821) and there is one Emerson quote that he comes back to often: “Do not go where the path leads you; go where there is no path and leave a trail.”
Towns first did that when he chose Harvard over the big-time basketball schools that were courting him.
“I really believe as an African American with a Harvard degree, I’ll have a chance to make an impact somewhere,” he said. “I love basketball, but I hope there’s a lot more to my life than that.”
