There's a lot to like about Jeremy King, especially if he's the great kid and teammate you describe. He may get a chance to contribute this year but the final verdict is more likely way down the line. He seems to have some real skills that can be developed.
When it comes to expectations for Jeremy, just one note about Texas. Except for the biggest schools, private schools in Texas do not compete in the same leagues as public schools. Moreover, there are far fewer private schools in Texas than we are used to here. St Thomas is in the Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools (TAPPS), and although a state championship and all-state staus are laudable, they are not the same kind of credentials as being an all-state member of a public school championship team.
