"He was a freshman on our team when Kevin Durant was a senior,'' said Montrose Christian coach Stu Vetter. "He is a terrific athlete.''
That Montrose squad was the only team to beat Oak Hill with Michael Beasley and Ty Lawson.
According to Vetter, Armwood was getting offers from everywhere. His final three were Texas, Syracuse and Villanova. The rankings lists vary, but a consensus would be that Armwood is a top-50 player, a very good get.
Vetter credited Villanova coach Jay Wright and assistant Patrick Chambers with establishing a relationship early with Armwood.
"They had been recruiting him for a year,'' Vetter said.
Villanova might not be finished with Montrose Christian players. According to Vetter, Villanova is a finalist for forward Terrell Vinson, also a very highly rated player.
"Isaiah is more athletic,'' Vetter said. "Terrell is a little more finesse and a little more fundamental.''
Duke, Georgetown, Memphis and Maryland are also in with Vinson.
"Villanova's right there,'' Vetter said.
If Villanova ends up with just Wayns and Armwood, it is a very good recruiting year. Wayns also is a top-50 talent and one of the best point guards among rising seniors. *
