Darius Wabbington will announce his college decision on Tuesday at 5 p.m. ET, bringing one of the most closely watched recruiting races in the class of 2027 to a close.
The 6-foot-11, 255-pound big man is a No. 13 national prospect and has narrowed his focus after taking official visits to Arizona, Illinois and Indiana. For all three programs, the decision now shifts from the court to the final call.
The schools in the mix
Wabbington’s visit schedule made clear how seriously the three schools were being considered. Arizona, Illinois and Indiana each got an official look, and that alone tells you the level of attention this recruitment has attracted.
There is also a little extra context on Indiana’s side. The Hoosiers currently have two commitments in the class of 2027, which gives Wabbington’s looming announcement another layer of significance for their class outlook.
The countdown is on
For recruiting fans, Tuesday at 5 p.m. ET is the key moment. That is when Wabbington’s choice will finally be revealed, ending the speculation around one of the top-ranked prospects in the cycle.
Until then, the only certainty is that Arizona, Illinois and Indiana have all done their pitch. Now it is down to Darius Wabbington to decide which program gets the prize.
