ACC Basketball: Ranking the 2017 Recruiting Classes
By Alec Lasley
No. 13 Virginia (2 Commits)
A team that lost their leader and heart and soul of the team in London Perrantes, will try to regroup in what may be a difficult season.
They will rely heavily on sophomore Kyle Guy and a pair of seniors in Isaiah Wilkins and Devon Hall.
After getting a McDonalds All-American in Guy last year, the Cavaliers failed to get another top 100 recruit in this year’s class.
2017 Commits:
- Marco Anthony (San Antonio, TX): 6-6, 220, CG, Rank – NR
- Francesco Badocchi (Mission, KS): 6-8, 205, SF, Rank – NR
While they hope Guy turns into a star and a four-year player, they need a solid class in 2018 to help replace what they have lost in previous years.
Look for Marco Anthony to play significant minutes for a Tony Bennett squad that will use a lot of bodies and look to utilize combo wing players like Anthony.
A team that struggled to score last year, look for more of the same in the upcoming year as they don’t seem to have a star player on the roster as of now.
