Coach Shrewsberry on Koehler

“Brady is someone who I have been very familiar with for a long time. He attends Cathedral High School in Indianapolis, which is the same high school I attended. Brady is someone who we think has legitimate NBA potential. He is 6-foot-9 with over a 7-foot wingspan, and already has high level athleticism along with an ability to handle the basketball and make shots. As he gets stronger, Brady is someone who we expect to thrive and really explode onto the scene.”

Staff on Koehler

Brady is a classic late bloomer who really exploded onto the scene heading into his junior season in high school. He grew almost nine inches in high school, but he has kept his coordination and guard skills, while now having more of a forward’s body.

Knowing that we needed to continue to upgrade our athleticism and versatility at the forward position, Brady is someone who immediately popped out to us last year. He showed an ability to shoot and handle the ball, and did it all at 6-foot-9 with a tremendous wingspan.

Beyond that, this past summer, Brady proved to be someone who can be an elite rim protector on the defensive end. He uses his long arms combined with excellent athleticism and timing to block shots both from his man, and when he is on the weak side.

When it comes to pure physical upside and potential, there aren’t many prospects that possess more of it, and when you combine that with his work ethic that was instilled by his parents, Staci and Carl, it is easy to see why the future is so bright for Brady.

Brady chose Notre Dame over offers from Wake Forest, Iowa, Virginia Tech, Northwestern, Butler and others.
