Like several on this Board, winning the ACC MBB championship was a 50 year old dream realized.

A lot of fairly good North Carolina high school basketball players have played in the ACC, David Thompson and Michael Jordan to name two, so I can only surmise that NC high school basketball is pretty good.

That Mr. Wessler is the #1 high school senior in the state on North Carolina strikes me as significant. And he’s gonna be a Hokie.

I have not portal envy. We got a guy.

Wessler is the #1 high school senior in the state on North Carolina?
I heard Top 5 but not #1. I also heard he was raised to a 4 star. He's gonna contribute this season.

#1 center- #5 overall
His team mate Epps at Combine #1 at guard Suffolk, Va product.

Although i did read his coach at Combine called him POY in state
Perhaps a media vote of some sort- not “rating” service.

Media tends to vote on actual performance rather than nba projections.

I agree. I don't think he is a so-called "project" player at all. I think
he'll be the real deal. It might be good to have a grad. transfer for him to learn under the first year and then he can take over in the 2nd year (or late 1st year if he develops really quickly).
