Obviously the biggest prize would be Simi Shittu and I absolutely think we are in the mix.  From what I know coach Hop has taken a very active role with this and recently went to see him play.  No new information to report.  His recruitment is likely not ending early.  He would be a TREMENDOUS fit for our zone.

I know we were also interested in Jaelin Llewellynn last year, but he's since left Athlete Institute and CIA Bounce for Virginia Episcopal and Team Loaded and I'm not sure where we stand in his recruitment at this point.  I know Stanford offered recently.  Maybe Francis can weigh in here.

Sam Rautins will be playing for CIA Bounce in the EYBL.  I'm not sure he's good enough but I would have said that about Andy as well.  Def worth monitoring since he absolutely grew up Orange and landing him wouldn't be very difficult if we elected to offer.

[B]A few guys we aren't yet involved with...[/B]

My favorite 2018 prospect outside of Simi is Jonathon Kabongo.  Yep, Myck's little brother.  Don't think we are involved but wish we were.  He plays for Huntington Prep and we haven't had a relationship with their staff up to this point so...  He's recently visited Ohio State and Louisville.  Most people have him severely underrated.

In terms of 2019... Everyone knows Rowan Barrett and we aren't getting him.  But the other guy who's going to b special one day is 5-star Andrew Nembhard.  He also plays for Montverde and I wonder if they end up being a package deal?  Haven't heard that but wouldn't be surprised.  He is running for UPLAY Canada's U16 EYBL squad which could end up being best team on circuit.  Lots of guys to monitor on this team.
