Each and every time Phenom Hoop Report gets to report or sees a commitment from a player we have seen over the years, it is always a fantastic day. It is great to see players achieve their goal to play at the next level and it is such a great accomplishment for that player.
Here is the latest commitment.
Player: Brock Vice
Class: 2023
Committed to: Saint Louis
What Was Said by Phenom Hoops:
“Super intrigued by 2023 6’8 Brock Vice from Blacksburg. Can’t teach size but he has a lot of tools that you have to like. Still raw but this is a kid to really watch for.” – July 10, 2020
“Absolutely love the feel from 2023 6’8 Brock Vice. Footwork, plays well with his back to the basket, and plays like a true big.” – July 11, 2020
“Playing at Blacksburg high school in Virginia, Vice showed tremendous potential and ability on the floor, playing like a true big (which is something that can’t always be said these days). He moves really well on both ends, uses his size well on the boards and keeps the ball high, while also showing impressive low-post, back-to-the-basket feel offensively. Vice plays with a great IQ and feel for the game early on but still is raw in areas, which should only excite coaches on the end product.”
“Brock was a problem on both ends of the floor. He had a beautiful baby hook shot & footwork inside. He works hard for second chance opportunities. He gets to the free-throw line a lot & often capitalized on those opportunities. Sets a perfect pick & rolls with great hands keeping the ball high in all situations.”
We Spoke to Vice about his offer from Saint Louis back in October, 2021:
Phenom: Recruitment has been going well. What has been the latest with you?
Vice: Yes sir, I just got an offer from Saint Louis on Monday.
Phenom: That was a big offer. How did you hear about that and what did they have to say? What did they like about your game?
Vice: They said that they liked my ability to step out and shoot the three and my abilities to also score around the basket.
Phenom: How long have they been recruiting or showing interest your way?
Vice: They have been showing interest since this summer and I know that Coach Ford is a great coach and that they run an offense that I would fit well in.
