Is that Vianney a traditional STL basketball powerhouse or are they just having a really good run of talent right now?
Eddie is the 3rd person on Vianneys team to be heavily recruited by UE.

Listed around 6’5” to 6’6”. One site list him as a PG and another as a SF. In the video below he can really light it up from 3 and looks like a SG. He looks like he has the body and skill set to compete in college now; so no wonder he has offers pouring in already even though he is in the 2026 class. m.youtube.com/watch?v=wQ-9W1ogj7Y

It seems like recruiting is all about getting your foot in the door as early as possible. In many cases a signee says the school was the first to offer. It’s not something new i.e. Damon Bailey being offered in the 8th grade by Bobby Knight but is becoming more common now.
As for Eddie Smajic, what’s to not like about this kid? In looking at his video I noticed his shots were always dead center in the hoop making his shot look so soft.
The Power schools will wait as usual to see how Eddie develops but it is important for Mid Majors like UE to evaluate his skills and whether he would be a good fit for the Aces basketball program. Based on the limited video available I’m glad to see we are pursuing Eddie Smajic.

247sports.com/Recruitment/eddie-smajic-168225/RecruitInterests/He already has a half dozen offers including St. Louis and interest from Iowa State and it is early in his recruitment. Would be a really good get for us down the road. Glad we are getting guys like this on campus for visits. Speaks volumes about the job that the coaching staff is doing.
