Boynton Says Moncrieffe would be a Top 20 Recruit if He Played in the U.S.

Rivals, 247Sports and ESPN all rate Matthew-Alexander Moncrieffe as a four-star prospect, but that’s still too low to Mike Boynton.

Moncrieffe, an OSU signee, is the 150th-ranked player in the 2020 class, according to 247Sports’ composite ranking, but Moncrieffe’s new coach said if Moncrieffe, out of Orangeville Prep in Canada, played high school ball in the United States, he would rocket up those boards.

“If Matthew-Alexander Moncrieffe was a U.S. high school basketball player, he would be a top-20 player in the country,” Boynton said. “He is really, really good. The thing that I like the most is he wants to be the best he can be, and nothing else matters.
