Darius Wabbington to Lewis Uvwo for the slam!

Is this pessimistic?  I think we are messaging to agents and players we want to build through freshman and actually being honest about it.  Strategy wise, I don’t know if that’s good or bad in today’s era.  That’s a discussion in itself.  But getting talent and keeping talent is the winning formula in the long run. 

No! I’d call it “balanced with a flavoring of optimism.” And neither was the preceding post!

In a paywalled story, Wabbington says he's in contact with "every coach on the coaching staff".  KJ is the lead recruiter.  Also says he intends to take an OV to all 6.

Nice list. A little tough to picture a Phoenix kid not ultimately choosing Zona. But stranger things have happened.

That is some tough competition but if we expect to get better we need players like him.

Kinda odd that he’s not booking the IU, UK, and UL visits together.

Dushawn London posted a paywalled recruiting update.  In a nutshell, Wabbington seems pretty committed to taking a visit to each of his 6 final schools and we're the first for better for worse.  There's no question our staff has gone all in on his recruitment and if we don't land him, it won't be for lack of effort on our part.  Wabbington specifically said he really likes DDV and was quoted as also mentioning KJ, T. Carr and Adams and the relationship he's developed with them.

1:30 today you can watch Wabbington, Yann Kamagate and Juleeyan Williams all playing for Compton.
