Jeremy Arnum '23 Recruiting Profile

My collegiate goals are to play at the highest level, always put myself to the highest standard.  All my coaches know that about me. I am a very skilled off-ball scorer, have a consistent jumper from the 3, and a highly skilled mid range game. I push the ball with pace and always looking to get to the basket in transition. I would consider myself a shot-creator/ playmaker, and my explosiveness is very good as well, very good finisher through contact. I take accountability and responsibility on and off the court. All the coaches that have coached me say that I’m a coaches dream player. I don’t get in trouble, always do my school work, great leader on the court, very vocal, love helping others on and off the court. “An amazing kid” they would say. My other goal is too start on a Division I school and further make it to the NBA. I take all my workouts seriously, always looking for more advice and tips to play at the next level.  What makes me different character wise is that, I’m very humble I don’t like to think to high of myself but at the same time I do  because I know who I am and I know what I’m capable of but there’s always a challenge coming your way if your “Top Player“ around. I‘m not a hot head, I’m a great listener, always come to practice on time, I do my school work and take school just as serious as I do basketball because I want to be the most intelligent I can and then use that intelligence to help me out throughout my years in hopes of making it to the NBA. Like I said I’m a great kid, always here for discussions, take accountability. I'm currently a junior (class of 2023) at Gulliver Preparatory School where I am apart of a brand new program led by another legendary basketball great, Ray Allen (2x NBA champion, 10x NBA All-Star, member of the 2018 Class of the Naismith Hall of Fame, and most recently named on of the top 75 NBA players of all time.) Coach Allen has spent the last year pouring into me as a shooting guard, a student, a young man and an active member of the Miami community. This year I averaged 18 points a game, 4.4 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 3 double doubles, and maintained a 3.7 GPA with a tough academic schedule that includes honors classes. In August, 2021, I chose to take a leap of faith, to leave my family and my home in CT (school, friends, my AAU squad, my reputation (I was listed as #11 in the state by CIAC) and I elected to completely start over in Miami. (My parents went through a tough divorce, I felt like I didn't have any stability and I didn't want my future or my basketball career to be affected negatively with any distractions). I truly believe I made the best decision for myself, I've grown so much in the last 8 months and I know I can be an asset to your storied program.
