Recruiting Report: Josh Boulanger (2018)
Brother Rice 2018 Josh Boulanger is a 6’4″ wing that has grown since we saw him over the summer. He brings great length and projectability to the table. Plus rebounder that high points them in traffic. Quick second jump getting on the offensive glass. Competitive kid that gets after it on the defensive end. Best offensively in transition using his athleticism and getting to the rim. His athleticism is obviously a big strength, but there are a few areas to improve. His handles on the perimeter could get tighter. The jump shot is an area that can take his game to the next level. Not consistent shooting it at this stage.
He talked about his summer with Chicago Lockdown.
“It was good. We played as a team. We had better chemistry throughout the season from the first game to the last game.”
What are his strengths as a player that he was able to show on the circuit?
“Rebounding and pushing the ball up the floor in transition were things I thought I did well.”
How are open gyms going with Brother Rice?
“They are good. We have had some coaches come in the gym. Open gyms have been completive.”
Boulanger says he is hearing from several small colleges at this stage.
“I am hearing from Loras, Augustana, IIT, John Carroll.”
