First it was Delaware in June, then on Sunday it was James Madison who offered 6-foot-3 shooting guard Terry Nolan.
Not bad for a guy who hasn’t even been a varsity starter yet.
The Mount Carmel 2017 mentioned that West Virginia, Maryland, Miami (FL), Yale, and Stanford are still showing interest.
He was also able to identify Towson, Dayton, and Mount Saint Mary’s as the schools after him the most at the moment.
Though he told us in April he could project as point guard at the next level, he’s been taking on more of a shooting guard role this offseason with Baltimore Supreme, and says he should be recruited as such.
“We have a really good point guard with Baltimore Supreme, so I’ve been playing off guard, I see myself playing shooting guard in college,” said Nolan, who says even with his two recent offers, he’s looking to add a couple more over the next two live periods.
“The rest of July I’m trying to get a couple more offers and some more interest,” he said. “And I want to constantly get better.”

Despite not even starting during his sophomore season, Mount Carmel combo guard Terry Nolan has become a lightning rod for recruitment.
Division I programs from all corners of the country are showing interest in the young 6-foot-3 guard, and though he holds no official offers, he was able to mention a lengthy list of early suitors.
“I have no offers at the time, but interest I have Stanford, Miami (FL), Yale, Virginia, Bucknell, Washington, American, Maryland, Wake Forest, West Virginia and Clemson,” said Nolan, PHM’s 10th-ranked 2017.
He has not yet taken any unofficial visits to those programs and still has no plans to. He says Yale and West Virginia have sent him the most recruiting mail.
Nolan, who cites scoring and assisting as his strengths, averaged 10 points off the bench for the Cougars and says one point of emphasis this season was energy.
“This year I expected to be a starter but I didn’t get that role, but I was the sixth man and I came off the bench and brought energy and enthusiasm and I just pumped my teammates up,” he said.
“Basically my role was to bring energy off the bench and contribute in any way possible.”
The 6-foot-3 guard plays both point and shooting guard for the Cougars, but projects as more of a point guard at the next level, a position he takes seriously during his grassroots ball while playing with Baltimore Supreme.
“In high school I’m a combo guard mostly, I do both, but in AAU I’m used mostly playing the one,” said Nolan, who hopes to get that elusive first offer this summer.
“I hope to get at least a couple of offers and excel my game mentally, physically and emotionally — and just have fun.”
