RECRUITING UPDATE
TROY WILLIAMS
PHOEBUS HS
HAMPTON VA.
By - MAZZOLINI
Besides North Carolina the 6’6″/190 lbs young man out of Phoebus High School (Hampton, VA) is looking at Kentucky, Georgetown, Villanova and Virginia Tech. Williams said this to CBSSports.com via a text message…
“They’re schools that play my style of play, and they’re also not that far for my family,”
CBS has him as a five star prospect, while ranking him eighth in his class. Over at Scout.com he is also listed as a five stars player, second at his position and eighth overall. Over at the other scouting site, Rivals.com the junior is ranked 14th overall and is only a four star candidate, and finally at ESPN Williams is seen as five star player, ranked 8th as well. From what I have read of this young man he has a lot of good sides to his game, which include his athleticism and versatility. His long arms allow him to be a factor on both sides of the ball, either going to the basket strong or locking down on a defender down low. While his play in the paint seems to be NCAA ready the shot from outside needs work, but if that does improve he could be a top notch wing player. I am sure that the recruiting war for this player is going to heat up soon and I will try to keep an eye (or ear) on it as it develops.
