A 14 Year Old Commits To Boston College, As Hockey Recruiting Grows More Absurd

¯_(u30c4)_/¯

There's recruiting news to report, so I guess we should talk about it, as a site that talks about such things. 2001-born goaltender Spencer Knight, who is, remarkably, 6'4'' at the age of 14, committed to the Eagles yesterday, becoming BC's first 01-born commitment. If he goes the Thatcher Demko/Katie Burt route and accelerates, we'll see him in 2018-2019. On a more normal trajectory, he'll be here in '19-'20 or '20-'21, presuming Earth isn't wiped out by an asteroid by then, or whatever.

This is, ostensibly, a good thing, coming on the heels of a top 15-year-old, Patrick Giles, committing to the Eagles a few weeks back.
