Filip Petrusev gives you a little flash of former Gonzaga Bulldogs hooper Zach Collins. Long/Fluid/Hybrid. Moves well. Serbian with feet!

Wow, many of us, jazz specifically would be ecstatic if the two are comparable. I wonder how tall Petrusev will measure out at when he sets foot on campus.

5'10" barefooted, 6'10" in shoes.

No way, will!!
















They'll get him better shoes than that!

I do find it funny that one of the best college basketball coaches in the country thought Foster was good enough to offer a scholarship and the professional talent evaluators at ESPN think he's the number 105 player in the 2018 class but so many people who have never seen him play in person know he's no good. It may not be attacking his character but saying future Zags players will never amount to anything before they set foot on campus is a little discouraging. I will give him and Few a couple of years before I pass judgement.

Anyone see any updates on Jordan Brown? Any Donny Daniels sightings at any of his games??

I'm would imagine there will be one when GU plays at USF next month.

I don't see how you can beat that Montverde team, and yet Maxpreps has them as 3rd ranked in the nation.

Is Luka Samanic still a player we are recruiting or is he the one going pro?

[Worthington]

I watched a couple of Monteverde's games from their latest tournament and came away very impressed with Petrusev. He's better than I thought when he originally signed. The Zach Collins comparison really isn't that far off. Collins probably has an inch or two on Petrusev and is a bit better of an athlete, but they are similar players. One thing Petrusev does much better than Collins is pass the ball. Not the same kind of scorer that Collins is at this point though. It was clear from the games that I saw that he was thinking the game at a higher level than the bigs that he was squaring off against. Absolutely a Mark Few kind of player. Personally, I think there's a pretty good chance he won't be a four year player and I predict he will continue to climb the 2018 recruiting rankings throughout the season.

Ranked #1 here

http://usatodayhss.com/rankings/expert/boys/basketball/2017/5

This ranking also has them #1.

"With that it mind, Montverde Academy (Montverde, Fla.) rolled to tournament titles at the Iolani Classic in Hawaii and the Beach Ball Classic in Myrtle Beach, S.C. to remain unbeaten and retain the No. 1 ranking its held in the FAB 50 National Team Rankings powered by Ballislife.com since the preseason. The Eagles have steamrolled some quality teams, as evidenced by their final two wins in South Carolina. Fast-rising DeMatha Catholic (Hyattsville, Md.) shot over 50 percent from 3-point range and Kevin Boyle’s club still won 76-66 in the semifinals before taking apart a pretty good Long Island Lutheran (Glen Head, N.Y.) team (70-42) that came into the championship game ranked No. 25. There is a long way to go and plenty of landmines coming up, but should this club re-gain some of the depth it has lost to nagging injuries, this team could very well challenge the 2012-13 edition as Boyle’s finest Montverde Academy team."
