Texasboysbasketball.com caught up with 2018 guard Larry Wise as the Waxhachie product compiled a string of strong performance this past weekend at the GASO Fall Shootout. Wise disusses his offers and a hard push from a Big Sky program.
“I have offers from Florida Gulf Coast, SMU, Texas A&M, Tulsa, Middle Tennessee State and Tulsa,” Wise said. “Purdue has shown interest and Weber State have offered me as well.”
Weber State, Larry tells the staff has been in pursuit of him the most and believe they can take his game to another level. Wise has aspirations of being in the category of Joel Bolomboy (2016) and Damian Lillard (2012) as products of the system to make it in the NBA.
“They want to win but they also want to prepare their athletes for the next level. I have aspirations to one day be in the NBA and although that will be a long, tough road they feel like under their wing I can make it,” Wise said.
Larry talks about the keys to his ultimate decision.
“The environment, development and academics are key factors for me. A good environment will allow me to develop and all the schools I have been in contact have good academics so that is fine.”
Wise plans on taking a official visit to Weber State in October and doesn’t have an exact time frame on when he will make a decision.
