Few prospects in the class of 2019 have had their recruitments explode over last year like Bettendorf (Iowa) point guard DJ Carton.
The 6-foot-1 Carton, who plays for Quad City Elite on the NY2LA circuit, is now in the top 25 in most of the national recruiting rankings. At one point, as many as 16 or 17 schools were calling and recruiting him.
But with a recent list cut to six schools, the process is now more manageable for Carton, who recently took his first two official visits.
“I think at first he was excited about it and kind of enjoyed the process, but then it got pretty demanding,” Carton’s mom, Jennifer, told Inside the Hall on Thursday.
