Jai Smith is a prospect we have talked about quite a bit on HoopSeen. He deserves all of this with his rise in recruitment over the past six months. The Raleigh (NC) Word of God forward has picked up offers from nearly every high-major program in the country since moving to North Carolina from up-state New York.
Justin Byerly has spent the past 15 years covering North Carolina prep and grassroots basketball. He has previously worked with The Recruit Scoop and Rivals.com. In addition to that he has contributed to The USA Today, Charlotte Observer, The Asheville Citizen-Times and The Sun News. He has held The Justin Byerly Upstate/WNC Showcase the past two years and has helped student-athletes from North Carolina and South Carolina receive college scholarships. He owns The Byerly Report scouting service that has over 100 college subscriptions. Justin resides in Asheville, North Carolina with his wife Danielle and four children.
