There's nothing about this guy online. This is very strange.

I did watch the highlight video and, with all the usual caveats (no idea re level of competition, and the video shows very little ballhandling and only 1 defensive play), it's a pretty nice mixtape! He has a nice looking shot with range and a floater.

That doesn't mean he's a D1 player. It just means it's a nice mixtape (apart from the graininess and lack of audio).
 
If he’s not a walk on, this is a favor to Montverde. Which is honestly fine because building a trust/relationship with them while using our last bench spot is a good investment. But he’s most likely a walk on.

Thirty-Four More Student-Athletes Commit to Play in College on Signing Day - Montverde Academy Athletics

Montverde, Fla.— Montverde Academy is excited to announce that thirty-four more senior student-athletes have committed to play their sport at the collegiate level

Here is an article from May 4th announcing this. Is it really possible that we all missed this? I'm so confused.

Maybe he's a preferred walk-on or whatever they call it now? It doesn't say he was offered a scholarship, just that he'll be playing at UConn.

I guess why not take a preferred walk on if a kid is a lottery ticket and you can get him on campus without giving up a scholarship. Just weird that it was "public" for 3 weeks and this is the first time it's been brought up (I'd assume if he was a legit scholarship recruit Hurley would have at least mentioned him in the recent interviews he's given our beat writers???)
 
Yeah, even his picture of his commitment made it look fake. LOL! I hope he is just a walk-on.
 
On his instagram, I couldn't find a single member of the staff who follows him. His only follower associated with the team is Andrew Hurley.

On his announcement post there was a congrats given by some NIL agent, rest of the comments looked like family and friends.

The preferred walk on theory makes sense. Still just bizarre.
 
Coincidence that he committed soon after Matt Garry entered the transfer portal (Yes, it is)

Niels came in kind of nerdy and left an uppercase G. This kid can do the same.

Until then his name is gendry like game of thrones
