He's been followed by coaches at Utah State, Montana State, UIC, Incarnate Word, Colorado State, Troy, Hawaii, Cal State Northridge, Bryant, UW-Milwaukee, South Dakota State, and Loyola.

I don't know if P5 coaches are less likely to follow players, but I would think he has his sights set on a P6 team, or at least a top tier mid major. Utah State and Loyola are both very solid programs, and Colorado State is on the upswing, but I was expecting some bigger name schools.

I assume you meant Loyola of Chicago. There are also Loyola (MD (Baltimore)) which plays in the Patriot League and Loyola Marymount which is in the West Coast Conference. Just based on your list, it could just as easily have been one of those (although Loyola Marymount does usually go by that name). There is also a Loyola in New Orleans but they don't play Division I. Luke might go to Milwaukee for obvious reasons but the only reason to go to those other schools rather than stay another year at W&M would be if they offered a grad degree in a field that W&M does not offer. Maybe he wants to go fishing in Hawai'i.

Good point above. I was a little deflated when I saw the list, in part because I was hoping Luke would get some higher level interest and two, I don’t see W&M taking a backseat in basketball or anything else to this collection of schools.

I think Luke could generate a lot of excitement at Kaplan next year. If he doesn’t get a much higher profile opportunity, I hope he sticks.

Of course that’s a fan view. Luke could have many other interests to pursue. All the best and if he is fully out, just sorry I didn’t see him play more often for us.

Yes, Loyola Chicago.

And I had the same thought, Luke might stick around here over going to South Dakota State, but again this is just based on twitter follows, so he could have plenty of other coaches contacting him
