AU Gets Verbal Commitment from First Class of 2014 Player

Thanks to a tipster, I'm happy to report that AU has a verbal commitment with Tony Wroblicky from Loyola High School in California. Read about him here, from ESPN (free membership required).

6'9 215 means he's pretty wiry. Needs to pack on some muscle, but could be a nice counterpart to Lumpkins on the inside.

A tidbit:

"July, 2009: As with most bigs, it takes time to see the finished product and Wroblicky is no exception. The lefty has come along nicely in recent years and now projects to being a solid mid-major prospect. He has deceptive bounce and excellent timing, especially on the defensive end. His hands are soft and he has a nice touch out to 15-feet. He needs to get stronger, but he has the frame and shoulder width to put on weight. Offensively, he is very comfortable scoring over his right shoulder, but he is a bit methodical with his post moves and he brings the ball down too often to gather himself. With continued development Wroblicky should be a nice fit in a motion offense and/or a pick-n-pop set because of his solid shooting ability."

And he earned a score of 90. Very nice! Well done!

  1. A 90 from ESPN?!? That's unheard of for AU. From what I've seen from their rankings low to mid-90s recruits play for top-25 teams. I'm impressed with you, Jeff Jones.
