Four-star Arizona commit Shareef O’Neal: “Don’t want to be involved with that”

Did another option for Kentucky’s 2018 recruiting class just open up?

Last night, ESPN released a bombshell report that Arizona head coach Sean Miller organized a $100,000 payment to ensure No. 1 prospect DeAndre Ayton ended up in a Wildcat uniform.

Before it all released to the public, four-star Arizona commit Shareef O’Neal tweeted that he “didn’t want to be involved with that.”

Back in late September when Arizona was originally included in the FBI investigation, there were rumors O’Neal would decommit from the school, and Kentucky was seen as the likely destination if that happened.
