C.J. Wilcher:
6'5"
Elizabeth, New Jersey
St Benedict Prep
Class: 2020

Ranked 124.

Chad and Evan Daniels reported on Twitter we are pursuing this sharp shooter from New Jersey. Sounds like it's us, Xavier, St. Johns, Providence, and Seton Hall

This seems like it would be a huge get for us.

Let’s pray we land this kid. 2020 is already looking bleak.

I'm commenting on this thread for one I'm really hoping we get this guy because he seems automatic from 3 and two I'm sick of logging onto Bearcattalk and seeing Symir Torrence as the last recruiting thread we talked about.

CJ just committed to Xavier

I hate to say it but Steele is absolutely killing it on the recruiting trail. If he can coach a lick Xavier has the potential to be very good.

It isn't just Steele, Xavier has been out recruiting us every year since they joined the Big East. We are constantly going after the same recruits, and just about every 4* recruit chooses Xavier over us. I don't get it, I guess it is just a conference thing.

Big East > American...... kids would rather play against Villanova than Tulsa

The best big east vs one of the worst American... good call

 

[cincyguy13]

Pretty sure this was a mick recruit. Don’t think brannen was in on him.

definitely better in name recognition, that's about it. Similar in everything else. Villanova is all the conference has.

UC > X. No reason UC shouldn't be out recruiting X, and I believe they will once Brannen gets rolling.

When last time we beat out X for a recruit? Yancy gates?

IDK, what I do know is that Brannen got Mika when Minny wanted him and Jaevin when ORE and UM wanted him and was said to be Beilein's #1 target this offseason

Better question why wasn't Jaevin at UC to begin with? Can't keep losing recruiting battles with X

If you're a player and offense is your primary calling card; why would you have ever come to UC when Mick was coach? This is where offensive games came to die. Xavier's offense was run so much better and accentuated good offensive players skills so why wouldn't you go there?

Hopefully that changes with Brannen but Mick built his brand for years and years and years so it might take a while for people to recognize.

Jaevin was a two star recruit out of high school. Everyone would be screaming if they had signed him. Does it bother anyone that he was buried deep on the bench and only averaged in the low single digits scoring wise his first 3 years?

I'm taking local project over guy coming from 1500 miles away. If nothing else it would've been guarantee Jarron was coming

 

[Vanhoop]

Yes I believe brannan will start rolling on getting bigger names. Hopefully it will start with Zach Harvey a higher ranked SG than Cj Wilcher. Other sites have us leading Kansas is his recruiting..Hopefully they are correct. Kid looks legit.

This is true. I hope we aren't setting the bar way too high for this kid....he's had one decent year on a mid-major team. Could be that last year was what he can consistently do when operating at full capacity..I hope so.
