Interesting commentary from Fran F on RF at about 2:40 mark

I saw Fraschilla on TV last night talking about the top 5 Euro prospects for the 2016 class. He said he believes that Freudenberg could end up being the best of the bunch. High praise with some players that were being recruited by Kentucky, Arizona and UNC.

Yeah, that clip's been up on ESPN for a few days.  He only really gets into detail about Maarkinen, the Finn, and Freudenberg.  Very complimentary and mentions STJ first when talking about schools going after him.

Coach Kevin Stallings and the Vanderbilt Commodores look like the top competitor for Fruedenberg's services at this point. Vanderbilt is one of the top academic institutions in the Power 5 conferences, which he told DraftExpress is very important to his family. Their quality on the court is not lacking either, as they are widely expected to return to the NCAA tournament this year, which would be their sixth appearance since 2007. However, their roster does not have as much of an international presence as St. John's, and does not have the attraction of an NBA All-Star head coach who played the same position he did.
                           
St. John's is clearly looking to take advantage of the international market and become a Gonzaga of the East, of sorts. If the Johnnies can use that effort, plus the added attraction of a big city, big conference, and a shorter flight from Europe, to get players on the level of Ronny Turiaf, Domantas Sabonis and Przemek Karnowski, it can pay huge dividends. Richard Freudenberg would be a big step in making that happen.

SJU and international student athletes is not just Basketball. If you have a few minutes  check on the rosters for women's   and men's sports at redstormsports

I know this is a deep recruiting year, but I feel like Freudenberg would be ranked significantly higher if he played in the states.

247 has him ranked in the top 50
*wipes ketchup from his eyes* - I guess Heinz sight isn’t 20/20.

I was watching highlights of him on youtube. His skill set is impressive. I would imagine if he was playing high school ball in the states he would def be top 20 player. Others might have a better gauge but he has good size and is very skilled offensively. This kid would be such a weapon for us. Hope we land him.

And a few other prominent sites don't have him ranked at all, his composite ranking on 247 is 99.

Hearing from Happy & another person close to program that staff really likes their chances here. Nice to have multiple lines in the water, staff certainly casting a wide net.

Is he def. planning on playing college ball or is there a chance he signs a pro contract back home?
