2026 recruit

Younger brother of former Duke and current NBA player Paolo Banchero.

Don't worry baby, I'm sure he is hooked on a feeling. We know raindrops will keep falling on his head in bad weather games.

I'll be here all night. Try the veal.

Not being followed by any of the coaches but kudos for coming all the way from Texas to check out regional schools.

This photo peaks my interest. Does this not fall into the category of "photo shoots"? I ask because recruiting trip Photo Shoots were outlawed by the NCAA recently.

My understanding is that the new rule only outlaws schools from taking photos or organizing photo shoots for players during unofficial visits. The players themselves and their families are still allowed to take photos, so if this photo was taken by the player's parent during the visit and posted on social media it would be fine.

Already has multiple FBS offers.
