Apparently Tommy Lloyd can recruit at a high level.
Who knew?
The commitment of five-star ‘24 forward Carter Bryant last week was a big one for Arizona. He chose the Wildcats over Louisville (and the many other schools that wanted him) and provided a positive development for a program that has been relatively quiet since the season ended.
But reports of Arizona’s recruiting demise were likely overblown to begin with, fueled by a stressed out and impatient fan base. That the Wildcats have yet to add anything through the transfer portal was viewed by many as an indictment on the first-time coach, proof that he just isn’t the kind of recruiter that can get the job done in Tucson.
