Nebraska just offered 2021 Hargrave guard Elijah Wood 

 

6' 5" shooting guard out of San Antonio. 3 star. (Profile also shows 2020 class)

He was previously a one time 4 star ranked 105 in the 150 and slid down the rankings. He’s reclassifying and transferring to Hargrave Prep for 2021. He had previously committed to both Tulane and Rhode Island.

Nebraska just hosted 2021’s Elijah Wood for a virtual visit, a source told

@Stockrisers

 Huskers very intrigued with the once four-star 2020 prospect who now has drawn a national recruitment.

Bumping for today

[Cowboy Kermit]

We have landed a commit from Elijah and he will reclassify to 2020 per Washut

So...a like for like trade then?

[hhcmatt]

Blew up as a sophomore then made sort of a surprise commitment to Tulane.  Decommitted.

Ended up at Rhode Island.  This is where the twins from Maryland transferred to. Decommitted.

I think he's on his 3rd or so high school.

 

Looks like a long guard, can handle the ball, can shoot, rangy.  What we're looking for in guards.

However, it's going to be a minor miracle if he's on the roster on June 19, 2021. 

Really no downside to this.

Looks like Abdelmassih may have gotten a recruiting assist

McGowens seems to be one of our top recruiters.

Yeah...now all we gotta do is get Trey to get his little brother to de-commit from Florida State and come to Lincoln instead!

Wait isn't this a high school kid?

Here’s from an article on Elijah Wood in a Providence, R.I., newspaper dated April 29, 2020 (two days before Nebraska offered):

 

The Maryland native also claimed offers from the likes of Texas Tech, Texas A&M, Auburn, Georgia, TCU, Florida, Kansas State and Ole Miss. Wood was downgraded to a three-star recruit by internet scouting services after opting to sit out the grassroots circuit last summer.

Little bro is a 6’6” scoring machine combo guard.  I guarantee those talks have begun.  Bryce is a scary talent with an NBA future.

Thanks, thrasher, for posting this!

Elijah’s fast break activity in that video is reminiscent of Haanif Cheatham’s role last season.

Some background on this:

 

Last year Bryce McGowens and Elijah Wood were going to play at the same basketball prep school, Lincoln Academy, in NC before it shut down. Wood had to scramble to find a new school, which ended up being Berkmar HS in Georgia.
