Villanova landed its latest major win on the recruiting trail Tuesday night when Jeremiah Robinson-Earl became the fourth ESPN 100 product to commit to the Wildcats.
Why he committed: His decision came down to Villanova and Kansas after having also taken official visits to Arizona, North Carolina and Notre Dame. A Kansas native whose father played for the Jayhawks from 1997-2000, Robinson-Earl had long been considered a Jayhawks lean but Jay Wright and his staff continued to build momentum in recent weeks as they developed a stellar class by selling their championship pedigree and an immediate opportunity.
