Note that Aldama signed with Loyola back in November. Looks like he may be a good one. Also of note is that his teammate on the Spanish U18 team signed with Loyola in April.

This article says Loyola has one of the top midmajor recruiting classes in the nation. One comment on Aldama, the Spanish center: "Now, Simovic is on Tavaras Hardy’s staff at Loyola (MD) and is once again making headway on the international recruiting trail. Landing Aldama, who just won MVP at the FIBA U18 European Championships, was perhaps the biggest heist of the 2019 cycle. As Evan Daniels of 247Sports wrote, “there are very few programs nationally which would turn down a talent like Aldama so the fact he will be playing college basketball in the Patriot League was a constant talking point amongst NBA scouts and college coaches.” He’s incredibly skilled for his size, able to pass, handle, and shoot the ball and protect the rim. Aldama could be an NBA prospect down the line and should be one of the most impressive mid-major freshmen in the country." The article calls Loyola's other Spanish signee " a fringe top-150 recruit". cbbcentral.com/2019/08/07/five-underrated-mid-major-recruiting-classes/If these two players live up to their billing, Loyola could challenge for the PL's #2 spot. |
