Consensus fringe Top-150 2021 NCAA Basketball recruit Sean Pedulla updated his final list of schools to eight this week.

The talented floor general is focusing on Oklahoma State, Minnesota, SMU, Colorado State, Virginia Tech, Louisiana Tech, Tulsa, and Wofford. As the 140th-best recruit per 247sports.com’s rankings, Sean Pedulla has seen a rapidly rising recruitment this summer. Due to consistent production for Team Buddy Buckets, Buddy Hield’s AAU program, schools have taken notice of how strong a prospect he is.

Improving his current ranking on 247sports.com by over 100 spots in the last several weeks, 60 spots nationally, has occurred as a direct result of his performances in recent tournaments. He has managed to pour in 20+ points per game over that time against some of the best competition in the 2021 and 2022 classes. Yet it’s production in other areas of the game that rounds out his stellar play. However, Pedulla’s attitude on the floor does not change regardless of whom he is playing.

He’s a very controlled and collected player on the floor. He doesn’t get rattled by pressure and is one of the most competitive recruits you will see. At 6’1, he has a strong frame to play through contact and consistently shows his on-court IQ via crafty shot creation and change of pace utilization as advantageous tools. Pedulla can make every shot on the floor, but his repetitive danger as a perimeter shooter opens up a lot of downhill action in his game.

Aside from his scoring prowess, Pedulla sees the floor very well and creates easier opportunities for his teammates to score on a regular basis. He makes winning plays capable of pushing him an early fan favorite at the next level. He is also a sound defender and leader on the floor that any program would desire to have.

Which of Pedulla’s schools look to offer the best situation for his style and playing time ahead of the 2021 season?
