Recruiting expert says Oregon has ‘minimal’ lead on Arizona for Nathan Bittle

If the Arizona Wildcats don’t land Nathan Bittle, they’re probably going to have to face him one day.

Eric Bossi of Rivals.com ranked the contenders to land the 2021 center, and Arizona is second behind the Oregon Ducks. Barely.

“If there is even any separation between Arizona and Oregon it is minimal at best,” Bossi wrote. “Bittle has been to Tucson, and Sean Miller has invested a lot of time into his recruitment. It should also be noted that players from Bittle’s summer program, West Coast Elite, have enjoyed success with the Wildcats and there is a good chance that two of his former teammates, Josh Green and Nico Mannion, could be selected in the first round of this year’s NBA Draft.
