WILD, who was the late change you think? Texas or Oregon? Wonder who got removed last second?

Brandon Williams wastes No time recruiting Cassius to Arizona! (BWill deleted the tweet. He's tweeted and deleted many times before, but he still got the message out)

Making the list is one thing, but this 2019 class is going to go a long way in REALLY showing how these prospects view Arizona and the status of our program.
It hasn't affected USC as they just landed 2019 5* prospect PF Okongwu out of California, but we will see in about a year how Miller handles this class.
Wildcat WR KeyShawn Johnson Jr also chimes in

As is normal for high schools highlights, there's not a lot shown defensively, but this kid has extraordinary balance and body control. He can take a completely different shot in midair. He slices very nicely between defenders and he plays at at speed that would cause most to lose control. His handles are impressive on the break. The athleticism is off the charts. He can hit from range, but it's hard to tell how consistent he is as the majority of highlights are showing his dominance around the rim.

Thanks for sharing and he is a phenomenal athlete. Man, watching the video highlights however shows one of the biggest thing that I hate about the recruiting process. At 1:22 in, the clip of him stealing the ball on the defensive end, and then showboating his way to a missed dunk with sound effects is just flat out stupid. Shows the desire for the flair and highlight reel footage vs. any sort of fundamental or team play. Seriously...a highlight with a bad play where you missed a completely open shot and then turned the ball over trying to save face and recover?
Stanley talks about all the teams on his final list. USC is the heavy favorite to land Cassius. We'll see if Miller and BWill can change his mind.

We're no longer on Cassius's list. Miller had stopped recruiting him a while ago.

Stinks that 2/3 of his final three are Pac-12. Kinda hoping Adidas is still paying players to go to Kansas.

It is clear that (1) Miller is prioritizing other prospects or (2) Miller doesn't believe we would be able to land him.
There are a handful of prospects that Miller is after in Armstrong and Green, and with a limited number of spots, we can't recruit everyone.
I'd put my money on Oregon.
I believe the internet was buzzing when Bol committed that Oregon/USC were considered favorites.
One is no longer on that list..
Wondered why Sean Miller stop recruiting Stanley I thought it was probably him thinking he was staying in California I remember when he was being recruited one time pretty hard by Arizona.
