Villanova recruit Isaiah Stewart is a hot commodity

Happy Monday Nova Nation! Over the weekend Villanova recruit Isaiah Stewart made his debut with Team USA at the World Cup in Argentina. Villanova was on had to scout the big man, as they appear to have made him a priority in the Class of 2019.

Stewart has already cut his list down to 10 schools, but he’ll soon be announcing his final five and scheduling official visits. Villanova seems to be in a great position to get a visit, but Duke still appears to be the pick of the “experts”.

Combined with Eric Dixon who’s already committed, this could be the greatest frontcourt pair Jay Wright has ever brought to Nova in a single class. That said, let’s not count our chickens before they’ve hatched.
