Yesterday, head basketball coach Mike Boynton extended a scholarship offer to 5 star 2022 SG Dariq Whitehead. As a member of Montverde Academy Eagles, Whitehead is a high school teammate of current Cowboy commit Cade Cunningham, who was obviously pleased about the offer:
Cowboy fans, make sure y’all stay on him! He’s gonna be special for sure https://t.co/umDT1eOZqL

At face value, this is a no-brainer decision for Boynton and co. Offering a scholarship to a 5 star athlete is something every school wanting to compete for championships does on a regular basis.
