from your perspective, will being #1 (at least at Rivals), bring too much pressure/spotlight?

By 'your perspective', you most assuredly didn't mean me. However, my understanding is that Xavier's family has deep roots in the military. Accordingly, whether he's #1, top 5 or whatever, my presumption/hope would be that he has a (deep) discipline built into his character and is predisposed to focusing on objectives and accomplishing them. Who knows if that's true or not, but I'd still have to imagine he is likely better positioned than many to deal with the pressures coming his way.
Kindness is free.
@drew I don’t think so in this case. The kid himself seems very grounded. Fans may think it means he should average 20/10 immediately but I hope that’s not the case. We certainly won’t be engaging in that here.
agree - let him develop and let Izzo work with him on stregnthening his entire game
