Big news out of the second July Live Period as 2017 point guard Eli Brooks has picked up an offer from the Villanova Wildcats. You'll recall that Brooks called Villanova his dream school in a recent interview.
Brooks is a 6'1" point guard from Spring Grove, Pa. who plays for the non-sponsored Jersey Shore Warriors AAU program (alongside Villanova Football verbal Kyle McCloskey). Because the Warriors don't play on one of the major AAU circuits, Brooks has mostly flown under the radar. A strong AAU season has led to more offers, with Kansas State and NC State jumping in the mix recently.
