Four-Star PG Bishop Boswell down to 6 schools
Charlotte (N.C.) Myers Park four-star point guard Bishop Boswell is down to six schools, he tells On3. Moving forward, the 6-foot-4, 195-pound rising senior will consider Georgia, Missouri, South Carolina, Tennessee, Wake Forest, and Xavier.
Boswell has taken official visits to two programs — Xavier and Missouri. Wake Forest and Georgia have each hosted him unofficially. He hopes to visit his other finalists before making a decision. Boswell currently does not have a timeline for a commitment.
Along with his final six schools, he also received offers from Georgetown, USC, Penn State, Mississippi State, LSU, and others.
According to the On3 Industry Rankings, Boswell is the No. 62 overall prospect in the 2024 cycle. He’s also the No. 9 point guard prospect and the No. 7 player in the state of North Carolina. The On3 Industry Ranking is a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
Boswell breaks down his finalists
I asked Boswell what stands out about each of his final schools. Here’s what he had to say.
Missouri: “What the coaches see in me and for me at Mizzou and the time head coach Gates has already invested in me in such a short time.”
Wake Forest: “They saw something in me very early on and have been dedicated to my recruitment and we’ve been able to spend a lot of time getting to know the staff well. Impressed with Coach Forbes style.”
Georgia: “Love the coaching staff and the campus and what Coach Whites done with PGs in the past. I’ve had a great unofficial visit there and looking forward to my official.”
Xavier: “Really enjoyed the coaching staff and the program and the vision they have for me and that it’s a winning program and what Coach Miller has been able to do with his players in the past.”
South Carolina: “Only recently starting a relationship with them but already really like what the head coach has to say about what he sees for me their and how he runs his program and relationships he has with his players as well as development.”
Tennessee: “Great history in their program and experienced head coach that has a great reputation and they have invested a lot of time getting to know me and share a lot with me about their program even though I received the offer from them only a week ago.”
Scouting Report
Bishop Boswell is a tough-minded, paint-touch point guard. At 6-foot-4, he has long arms, and as a former football recruit, he brings a sense of toughness to the court. Boswell is a high-level on-ball defender. He will pick up his man for the full length of the floor and turn his man multiple times. Boswell plays well out of the pick and roll, where he makes good reads. He touches the paint in the half-court, and his decision-making is improving. The jump shot is streaky but improving. The arc on his shot can get flat at times, but he is becoming at least a threat from three. Boswell has solid straight-line burst and quick feet. He makes plays. – On3’s Jamie Shaw
