4-Star Guard Daniel Skillings Commits to Cincinnati

Coach Wes Miller got his guy. Get used to that phrase throughout Miller’s tenure at Cincinnati. After 7-footer Sage Tolentino committed to the Bearcats in July, Miller was looking for a long wing with the potential to be a three-level scorer and he found one in top-100 guard Daniel Skillings. Coming from Philadelphia’s Roman Catholic High School, Skillings did not start playing organized basketball until the ninth grade which makes his meteoric rise all the more noteworthy. Fielding offers from NC State, Pittsburgh, Virginia Tech, and others, Skillings ultimately chose the Bearcats nearly three weeks after his September 4th visit which included the Battle for the Victory Bell between Cincinnati and Miami (OH).
