Don't recall him at all.  However, it's grabs like this that worked out extremely well for us in the halcyon days of '18-'21.  Spot the game-ready AR guys on other teams that aren't appreciated but clearly have some special potential, and bring them into our (better) system.

That's what got us Maston, Taylor,etc.

I hope we still have that magic eye for sniping overlooked future stars.  Wonder what he was doing all '23, though.
