Tony Bennett makes new offer to in-state ‘sniper’ Kaiser Jr.

By Jerry Ratcliffe

After a three-hour Zoom call with Tony Bennett and staff on Thursday night, 2023 wing Jamie Kaiser Jr. announced he had received an offer from Virginia.

Kaiser is a 6-foot-6, 200-pound prospect from Bishop Ireton in Alexandria. He’s been described as a three-level scorer and a sniper from the 3-point range who has a quick release with his shot.

Formerly from Lake Braddock High School in Burke, Kaiser played quarterback, which he said has made him a tougher athlete.

He has a ton of offers, UVA being the latest. His other offers: Wisconsin, Georgia Tech, Virginia Tech, VCU, Pitt, Maryland, Davidson, Creighton, Georgetown, TCU, Stanford and others. Kaiser said he will not commit until some time in July.

Virginia has offered eight players from the 2023 recruiting class:

• Jamie Kaiser, 6-6 (Virginia)
• Taison Chatman, 6-4 (Minnesota)
• Freddie Dilione, 6-4 (North Carolina)
• TJ Power, 6-8 (Massachusetts)
• Cam Christie, 6-3 (Illinois)
• Milan Momcilovic, 6-8 (Wisconsin)
• Blake Buchanan, 6-10 (Idaho)
• Andrej Stojakovic, 6-6 (California)
