We caught up with the big man and dove deep into his recruitment. To date, he said he holds scholarship offers from East Tennessee State, Florida Gulf Coast, Kennesaw State, UAB and Winthrop.
The interest runs deep, too. Hudson said he's heard from the likes of Appalachian State, Auburn, Clemson, Elon, Houston, Iona, Louisiana, Mount Saint Mary's, Mercer, Murray State, South Florida, Southern Illinois, Temple, Western Carolina and Wofford.
He's had a zoom visit with Mount Saint Mary's.

...The rising senior impressed with his physical attributes, motor, and productivity in a handful of games for the Nike EYBL squad...
...Moore quickly earned scholarship offers from Detroit and Troy following the Bama Jam. They joined in-state programs Alabama State and Troy on his offer sheet. Murray State, Lipscomb, Tennessee State, Mississippi State, North Alabama, South Alabama, and Georgia Tech are among the programs showing interest. They all see the same thing in Moore.
"I think the coaches like me because I play hard. I have a motor that doesn't stop and I bring energy. I like to get out and run and I'm a really good finisher," Moore explained with his recent popularity...

#5 CLARENCE RUPERT - 6'7 - WING/FORWARD - MILLER SCHOOL
Clarence Rupert has seen his ceiling grow a ton since joining Miller School in 2019-20. He put up 18.4 points and 3.2 rebounds per game as they adjusted under new head coach Jack Meriwether. He’ll be looked upon to do a whole lot more as one of their primary scorers in the rotation once again in 2020-21. He holds offers from Wichita State, St. Louis, Murray State, Georgia and others heading into his senior season.
6’7 ’21 Clarence Rupert (Team Push)
While there were multiple national-level prospects on display, Clarence Rupert still stood out as one of the most intriguing. Team Push was easily among the top teams in attendance, and Rupert looked phenomenal in a leadership role (despite not even playing in every game). Though he already holds nearly a dozen Division I offers, it’s actually quite surprising that more schools aren’t involved. Rupert seems somewhat underrated, considering he’s a fairly obvious high-major talent with all the tools to be an absolute matchup problem against any type of competition. At 6-foot-7 with a fluid, football-like frame, he’s incredibly difficult for opponents to contain. Most players take what the defense is giving them, whereas Rupert has the ability to take whatever he wants—whenever he wants it. This isn’t meant to imply he forces the action or won’t take advantage of available opportunities, but rather that his combination of IQ, size, and skill makes him virtually unstoppable. Rupert can get downhill and finish with force or finesse around the basket, but also displays vision and a willingness to make the best possible play. However, he’s also proven to be an effective perimeter shooter with the ability to create his own shot with relative ease. Rupert also regularly operates out of the post and actively looks to exploit mismatches. His versatility translates to both ends of the floor, as he possesses the necessary strength, quickness, and mobility to defend at least three positions comfortably. Rupert is an exceptional rebounder with great hands and the capability to effortlessly push the break in transition. There’s simply no questioning his appeal, so folks should expect his offer sheet to continue growing throughout his senior season.
The Crimson Kings Black squad got a big time weekend performance from Rayquan Taylor here at the Atlanta Jam. The 6-foot-9 face up forward showed great athleticism and skill, getting past bigs with his quickness throughout the weekend. The senior’s length is sure to give opponents all sorts of issues both offensively and defensively. He also get out of the paint and knock down shots. Tons of upside for this one. North Alabama secured an early commitment from him and they could be pulling off the steal of the Atlantic Sun recruiting classes for the class of 2021. Taylor was outstanding here and was one of the top rebounders and scorers at the Atlanta Jam. - Bre Singleton
RayQuan Taylor, 2021 PF, Carver-Montgomery: The staff at North Alabama raised some eyebrows a few months back when they picked up an early pledge from 2021 big man RayQuan Brown. If Monday's game was an indication, the Lions are way out in front with this one. Taylor, a 6-foot-8 big man, is an elite shot-blocker. He has great timing from his position in help-side defense and uses it to his advantage. The junior blocked four shots right off the bat in the first period while also altering the shots that he didn't block. Taylor is still a work in progress on offense but there's a lot to like at this stage. He has good hands and runs the floor like a deer. With more repetitions in the post, I think it's safe to say UNA made a good decision getting Taylor done early. He's a difference-maker on defense in the Atlantic Sun conference.
