Zakai Ziegler - 5'10" PG Class of 2022 Offered

[MikeKennedyRulZ]

Shockers have offered this 5'10" PG from NYC and Our Savior Lutheran School. Other offers include SIU, Minnesota, New Mex St, NJIT, Manhattan. Had a good showing at Peach Jam this past weekend to raise his stock.

According to this article from 247, he is now class of 2021 and will pick from four schools, including Wichita State. I would have assumed the signing of Abidde would eliminate Ziegler if he truly has reclassified to 2021.

EDIT: His profile page on 247 still shows him to be class of 2022. So perhaps the article is wrong.

So did he visit?

It would seem strange for him to make such an important decision after school starts. It probably isn't this way, but it seems like a late breaking spur of the moment decision.

I hope this helps clear up some things: This was from August 23 on Twitter.

Vols have 2022 PG Zakai Zeigler
@Realzakaiz
currently on campus for an OV…the staff is talking to him about possibly reclassifying and joining this year's team. https://247sports.com/player/zakai-zeigler-46118223/

Could be a coincidence... But interesting timing since we just had a scholly open up

I don't think we know if a scholly has opened up. McFarlane received scholarship money to attend summer classes.

Right, Taylors post about that came up after I posted this possible scenario

I think that IB was interested in him to get a 2022 commitment, and a LOI in November. I doubt that the 2021 class has anything to do with us.
