White talks finalists
In a previous interview with On3, White went in-depth on his finalists.
Alabama: “Coach Murphy has made it very hard to leave them out, with the constant love he shows on and off the court as well just being able to talk about more than just ball matters for me.”
Georgetown: “The connection me and Cooley have outside of basketball is second to none.
Extremely genuine guy.”
LSU: “Coach Long and Coach Mac at LSU started recruiting me early. They’ve came out and watched me and we’ve had some good conversations on how I would fit in their system. It’s one of the styles of play that really interests me.”
Syracuse: “Coach Red, coach B, and coach Mac are another one of those staffs that connected with me off the court. With coach Red leading charge in his first season, I’ve how much he wants his guys to get to the next level.”
Tennessee: “Coach Gainey has made it a point to prioritize me in Tennessee’s recruiting. He’s been at multiple games and really makes the effort to stay in contact with me. Coach Barnes coaches his guys hard which is something I don’t shy away from which I like.”
Texas: “I’ve always been a Texas fan growing up. I love how they produce guys every year and how they utilize the versatile players. Me and coach Terry have had some good talks and their Director of Recruiting coach Ty has been really on my game and me since last year.”
Scouting Report
“Sadiq White has a lot of physical tools. At 6-foot-7, he has long arms, broad shoulders, and an explosively athletic frame. Out in transition is where White is at his best, filling the lanes and racing toward the rim. When locked in, there is the upside to becoming an excellent defender. He can move his feet on the ball and get in the passing lanes off the ball. Offensively, White will have to develop his ball handling and ability to get by his man, especially going right. The jump shot is streaky right now, both with his release and balance point. Still young, with a lot of natural tools, the upside is apparent as he is on a high major trajectory.” – On3’s Jamie Shaw
