Terry Armstrong 2019 6'6 4-Star SG has Arizona on his final 4 list. He will visit Arizona on October 5th-7th. Miller has Arizona in a good spot to possibly land another top in state player. He recently had an in home visit & Arizona coaches & they watched him at practice.

Getting him may mean Green will go to UNC or he already told Nico where he will go

I don't believe Armstrong would "scare" away Green, who is a 5* prospect.
He is going to be penciled for serious minutes wherever he decides to go.
With that being said, WILDcatAZfan was right, Arizona made it to his final listing.
Guess that uncomfortable picture with our staff was not what it appeared to be.
My question is beginning to be how many prospects will Miller actually bring in 2019?
We appear to be in a good position with more than a handful of prospects and right now, we appear to be in the lead for more prospects than we may have spots for.
Terry Armstrong starts his visit at Arizona today (October 5th-7th)
Nico & Josh have pretty much wrapped him up for us. BearDown!
Commitment this weekend?
Am I the only one that keeps refreshing this thread to see if Armstrong committed yet?

I keep searching Twitter for the announcement.
I am guessing commitment comes tomorrow end of visit.
I love Armstrong's game, I just worry about pushing our existing players out of the picture. We are pretty stacked at the wing positions already. Think it may be a scholarship better used on filling up our depleted frontcourt that in 2019 will include Jeter(if he doesn't declare early), Koloko(Unlikely to be an immediate contributor IMO), Lee and Gettings.

That is going to happen.
I thought about making a thread about it, but I stopped for some reason.
Thanks to you, I may go ahead and make the thread now.
I don't have any problem just stacking our team with wings 6'5 - 6'8 guys with athleticism and length. I'd rather add wing depth in Armstrong who has a ton of (maybe immediate) upside than add a not-so-great-right-now big.
Armstrong posted this on social media a bit ago. Check out Nico and Green's comments.

Another factor that I don't think none of us have brought up is that Armstrong might even redshirt.
When you look at the amount of wings we are going to have (Smith/Akot/Randolph/Doutrive/Thielemans) returning, and then Green and Armstrong, there is no way in hell I see Miller playing SEVEN wings.
3-4 might get good minutes, 1-2 get spot minutes, and then 1-2 are getting little to time at all.
I would go as far to say we may have some transfer(s) before our 2018-19 season is finished.
This kid likely loves the UA, but he's got to be thinking about the same thing many of us are thinking. It's somewhat crowded at his positions. There's a reasonable chance he gets lost in the shuffle and becomes a future transfer. This is even more likely if nothing else happens to disrupt our momentum in recruiting. If SM is back to high level recruiting well beyond this year, we'll be restocking at his position pretty much every year. I can see him mulling over wanting to join a program that needs him more than we do.
Oregon is officially off of Terry Armstrong's list and he's down to Arizona, Oklahoma, & New Mexico. Expect him to make his announcement next week. 😼
Well with Thielemans gone, it doesn't seem AS crowded as it would have been with him.
The speculation is going to continue, but one body gone can make a big difference.
I still believe Smith is going to be a grad-transfer after the season is can't make any progress in his game, and I still believe we could lose another wing via NBA/transfer.
There are going to be a lot of talent behind him and I believe Miller will begin to prefer talent > experience.
Green/Armstrong/Doutrive have more promise than Smith does and two of them are still in HS!
Just saying..
Haven't seen much other than a few highlights but reminds me of Jimmy Butler. We can only hope.

And this is before or after Marquette?

During and after. Leg kick on the shot and some of the fades most notably.
