Past_Notes

1-10-15 Offered by Furman. 9-28-14 Update - Offered by Northern Kentucky while on an unofficial visit. It is his second offer with IUPUI being his first. He reports that he gets shots up 3 times a week during football season. Wilkins also noted that Purdue, Indiana State, Western Michigan and Furman have been into see him this fall. He has had football interest from Missouri, Nebraska, Indiana and Purdue. He says that basketball is still his top priority and he would rather play basketball in college.

Merrillville really struggled this high school season. Wilkins missed some time due to injury. I did not get a chance to see him in the HS year. Long, good athlete, good decision maker. Needs to improve outside shooter. I expect him to get to 6-4.

Overall_Notes Wilkins shooting guard with length and versatility. Mainly a slasher but his outside shooting has improved over the last year.  Has topped out around 6-2 with plus length. Needs to show that he can score consistently against good competiton.
