Looking at who Jones recruited at UCF, it was almost exclusively Florida guys. And that makes sense, being such a talent-rich state. But Wichita State recruits everywhere. Here's their 2018 class:
Morris Udeze: 3 star center from
Richmond, TX who prepped in Monteverde, FL
Eric Stevenson: 3 star SG from Lacey, WA
Chance Moore: 3 star SG from Louisville, KY
Isaiah Chandler: 3 star center from Wichita, KS
Jamie Echenique: 3 star JUCO center who hails from Colombia but went to juco in Athens, TX
Dexter Dennis: unranked SG from Baker, LA who prepped in Athens, TN
Jamarius Burton: 3 star combo or PG from
Charlotte, NC
Rodgerick Brown: 3 star SG from Cordova, TN (redshirted 17-18 season)
So I don't know how much time Donnie Jones had to invest in 2019, 2020, and 2021 kids after Wichita State was recruiting Texas, Florida, Washington, Kentucky, Kansas, Louisiana, Tennessee and North Carolina for that massive 2018-19 haul but no doubt Gregg Marshall has had Donnie working hard. That's for sure.
