That's incredible. I didn't realize it had been 11. We're recruiting at the level Skip had us at.
I would add this guy was ranked as high as 60 by some before his injury knocking him out for much of last year. Offers from Baylor, Gators, UGA, GT, UVA, and NCSU to name a few. That is a big time win and as someone else mentioned after we swung for the fences. A true PG to set up Hoard, Mucius, Sharone along with Chaundee, Olivier, etc.
So fun to be excited about WF BB again. Has been a long while.
Bryant Crawford was ranked 111 on 247 as an example. You never know what these young guys are going to become but Wake has a chance to be very special in the next few years.
It is great to be at the point where we can still land players like Lewis after missing on our "swing for the fences" targets.
Lewis could absolutely be a very good player for us.
someone link me to his best mixtape
Another win on the recruiting trail for Danny and the staff!
This time around, Lewis chose Wake over Baylor and Mississippi State. Last time around, Lewis chose NC State over Baylor and Georgia Tech.
Ultimately, Lewis chose Wake over offers from North Carolina State, Kansas, Florida, Baylor, Virginia, Georgia Tech, Iowa State, Connecticut, California, Missouri, Georgia, and Tulane. From what I can tell, Mississippi State never actually offered.
I don't see Ayo as a successful one and done

Lewis actually got as high as number 38 nationally and the number 5 point guard before injuries.
That's incredible. I didn't realize it had been 11. We're recruiting at the level Skip had us at.
Could be wrong, but I recall that the bulk of discussion on this board when Manning was hired focused on his ability to recruit and not coaching ability, as his Tulsa team had just won the CUSA regular season and conference tournament.
I said it before, but we're ahead of where I thought we'd be in recruiting and just about where I thought we'd be with performance on the court. Really trending upward with recruiting. Great work by Manning & the coaching staff. Congrats.
