We may not be landing the 5 star guys yet, but it's a testament to our growing success, and coaching staff, that these guys are putting us out there on their lists.
Can only get better.

This is a guy X has a real shot at.

I just watched the Indiana Big Four prospect podcast on Scout, and feel like I've already gotten my money's worth after a week.

"Xavier also has been involved with Wilkes for several years. Indiana and Xavier also are in the mix for Southport guard Paul Scruggs, a close friend and travel teammate of Wilkes.

“Xavier is another one that has been there since the beginning,” he said. “I’ve got to know them more and more. They were always there in the front row for my games.”

Wilkes, Scruggs and Quade Green too! Bunch a ballers. Muskies are looking good.

[GIMMFD]

Pretty special to be in the running with 5 star prospects, things are very very bright for the future of Xavier basketball.

Great to see Xavier listed on some many of those guys' lists!

Read last night that Mack and his staff have an in-home visit with Kris Wilkes and his family scheduled for 9/13. Even though we should get an official visit from Wilkes, nothing has been set up as of yet.

Visit IU boards for entertainment.

Got a recommendation of a good one?

Not sure what happened to Peegs, but the Rivals site seems to be more active now.

[waggy]

I think Rivals is the old Peegs. Not sure.

[AviatorX]

Peegs is on Scout now. Wilkes to UCLA hasn't exactly been a secret the last 2-3 weeks (he told all the coaches involved he was going there a few weeks back), so actually not much hand wringing left to be done on the boards at this point. Opening the season with a win over Kansas didn't hurt either.

[XUFan09]

Too bad there's not an active free board. I bet it would be entertaining.

as expected

If we couldn't get him, I'm glad he didn't go to IU, win some games and make them a more attractive option for other recruits down the road.

Maybe he will pull a Blueitt, decommit, and come to Xavier (I'm kidding....sort of).

I'm sort of.......a BILLION percent behind this idea.



UCLA is very far away. Unless of course, the option is IU. Then it's a storied basketball university with exceptional weather.
