Last week we shared that Rice transfer Trey Murphy III said that Villanova was among the schools that had reached out to him.
Now, per Jake Weingarten of Stockrisers, we have a report that Murphy will conduct a virtual visit with Villanova on Monday. This news indicates that the report of Nova's interest was not only valid, but that the interest is mutual, and shows that the situation is definitely one worth monitoring.
Murphy has already completed virtual visits with Pitt and Iowa State and has said he would like to do the same with UConn and Crighton. The list of schools that have shown interest has blossomed to over 40, with Georgetown and Virginia being among the latest to reach out, so there will be a lot of competition here, but the fact that he's taking this step with Nova is an encouraging sign.
