As someone who has seen Murley play with the Junior Crunch, let me just
say that he's about the best player in that league.  He should make the
transition to the college game easily; the Metro Junior "A" league is a
lot more physical than the college game, so his speed & skill will help
him even more at RPI.
 
Just one warning:  don't expect him to stay 4 years.  One, maybe two is
all he may stay there (or so a recent article in the _Syracuse
Post-Standard_ implied).
