ON UPCOMING VISITS “I’m planning on going to Clemson sometime in September. Also, I’m going to Virginia Tech and Virginia. I don’t have dates yet, but I’m going to do those three for sure.” ON CLEMSON “That’s a school I always liked. I grew up liking them. I always liked the football team and watched them, so that’s cool.” ON THE IN-STATE SCHOOLS “With Virginia Tech and Virginia, I like the in-state schools. It’s been fun seeing those schools and getting to know them – seeing the rivalry games between them. I have a lot of connection to both.” ON WHICH COACHES HE SPEAKS WITH MOST OFTEN “I would say it’s between Virginia Tech and Virginia. They hit me up the most.” basketballrecruiting.rivals.com/news/virginia-among-teams-to-beat-for-four-star-pg-chance-mallory"4-star PG Chance Malloy (2025) has been one of the biggest standouts of this season’s tournament. The 5-foot-10 point guard had another standout performance in the championship game of the Coby White Division. Mallory is a skilled and compact lead guard who has range out to 30-plus feet and a tight handle that gets him to open spots on the floor. The MVP of his division finished with 27 points, five rebounds, four assists, and three steals in the win." www.on3.com/news/john-wall-holiday-invitational-day-3-top-performers-drake-powell-paul-mcneil-jayden-quaintance/"On3 MVP: Four-Star PG Chance Mallory (2025) There is a toughness factor that Chance Mallory brings to the game that is hard to ignore. The Charlottesville (VA) St. Anne’s Bellfield guard plays with a ton of confidence and brings it on both ends of the floor every minute he is in the game. Mallory is very skilled which is enhanced by the toughness. His range extends out to 30 or so feet, and he is comfortable knocking it down off the bounce or off the catch. When defenses press too high on him, he attacks the paint. Mallory’s decision-making was excellent today, processing quickly and delivering precisely. Mallory is around 5-foot-10, so some will question the size, but he competed on the defensive end of the floor, guarding especially well in the open floor. Virginia Tech head coach Mike Young and an assistant were courtside along with coaches from West Virginia, Notre Dame, LSU, and Georgetown to watch. Mallory finished with 28 points, 10 rebounds, and nine assists in the win." www.on3.com/news/john-wall-holiday-invitational-day-one-top-performers/"Chance Mallory, a 5-foot-10 point guard out of Charlottesville (VA) St Anne’s-Belfield School, will be attending Virginia’s matchup against Virginia Tech on Wednesday night. The four-star junior holds an offer from the Cavaliers and unofficially visited the school in September. Along with Virginia, Mallory holds offers from Clemson, West Virginia, Virginia Tech, Maryland, and others." www.on3.com/college/virginia-cavaliers/news/4-star-pg-chance-mallory-to-be-in-attendance-for-virginia-game/

"Class of 2025 four-stars Nyk Lewis and Derek Dixon were instrumental in Gonzaga HS’s (DC.) 72-67 HoopHall Classic win over Hudson Catholic (NJ.) on Sunday. Lewis was named the game MVP with 17 points, 7 assists and 4 rebounds, while Dixon posted 19 points and 3 assists, including a game-clinching layup assisted by Lewis... “I’ll probably commit around the end of summer, beginning of senior year,” he said. He’ll take visits at the end of Gonzaga’s season aside from his upcoming official visit to Xavier. “The coaches are really coming into contact with me, so I’m excited to get out there Feb. 10.” Aside from his five previous visits, Lewis mentioned he’d like to see LSU, Tennessee and Auburn over the summer." www.zagsblog.com/2024/01/17/gonzaga-hs-four-star-backcourt-nyk-lewis-derek-dixon-shine-on-hoophall-national-stage/

LSU and Tennessee are possible destinations as well. Lewis broke down the schools involved in his recruitment and recapped his official visits with 247Sports. Oklahoma State: “That visit was really good and I was there for a football game. It was a while ago but it was a really big game and they took down the field goal post after.” Marquette: “I went for a basketball game when they played Rider. I had a lot of good meetings with the coaches and they really liked me for me. On the visit I got to kick it with some of the players, see how they live, and communicate with each other.” Xavier: “They’re always telling me I could be the next big point guard to come out of Xavier so they’re trying to keep in contact with me. Coach Miller and Cohen keep in contact with me daily and I feel a lot of love coming from there.” Georgetown: “Coach Cooley is a friendly coach who talks to you like he’s one of the guys. That’s what I really like about him. He’s taken me to some of the games and I had breakfast with him. We have a really good relationship.” LSU: “They were the first school to contact me on June 15th so I feel like it’s a lot of love.” Tennessee: “They’ve been pretty involved so I’ll see them down the road.” At this point Lewis will take his time and won’t rush his decision. “I want to take my time and make the best decision for me,” he said. “I’ll probably make my decision in the summer or beginning of my senior year.” 247sports.com/college/basketball/recruiting/article/college-basketball-nyk-lewis-marquette-oklahoma-state-xavier-225861691/

Some of these rankings are just kind of peculiar. I don't get the Ament hype. Elamin barely plays at PVI (understandable). Ward is low because he stayed at Largo. The Lewsises are both too low. Reibe comes off the bench at Bullis, but if you're ranking Gurdak that high...

"Ranked the No. 109 overall recruit in the national junior class, Kaden Magwood had a loud 40-point performance against La Lumiere this weekend at the Marshall County Hoopfest. A 6-foot-3 guard who is solely wired to score the basketball, Magwood finds his offense with size-up dribbles, quick drives to the basket, and great lift to elevate over defenders in various scenarios along the perimeter. There is room for improvement as a decision-maker with the ball in his hands, but he has a great body, the ability to rise and fire, and microwave ability when it comes to making shots from a variety of areas on the floor. Recruitment: Magwood has been to Alabama, Illinois, and Virginia Tech for visits dating back to the latter part of August." 247sports.com/college/basketball/recruiting/article/triple-threat-alert-eybl-scholastic-aristode-brewster-magwood-oak-hill-stagg-img-222401214/

"Four-star guard Acaden Lewis has become one of UVa’s top targets from the class of 2025 and last week the junior from Sidwell Friends School took another visit to Charlottesville and was in attendance for their overtime win against NC State... “I talked to Coach Bennett and Coach Williford after the game and they are just really genuine people,” he said. “I know that if I were to choose Virginia and go there for college, they would really help me become the best player I can be and develop me. Whatever college I choose to go to, I think I will be able to make a big impact on the program.” Williford has been the lead recruiter for Lewis since the beginning but Lewis and Bennett have started to talk more and more, too. “I have developed a really good relationship with Coach Bennett,” Lewis explained. “It is a really open relationship and it is always nice to hear from the head coach of a program. I like to hear from assistant coaches but when you actually hear from the head coach, it just hits a little different. He reaches out to me just as much as some other assistants do. You can really tell he is making me a priority, which I appreciate. He is just checking in on me every couple of days so I really appreciate Coach Bennett. He was one of the main people that wanted to get me to the game against NC State so I really appreciated that.”... After the season is really when I will start taking more visits and especially visits to schools that are not that local,” he added. “Some of those schools include UVa again, Florida State, Georgetown, Oregon, Georgia and a couple more that I really have not been to yet.” virginia.rivals.com/news/four-star-g-lewis-talks-recent-trip-to-uva-fit-with-the-wahoos
