Another bigger guard that Wojo is recruiting.  Listed as 6'5".  Rated highly (69 comp).  Seems like a trend with Wojo. Bigger wings/guards. Based upon past recruits, I assume he can shoot.

Looks like there will be big time competition if the teams who are now cool, become more interested as we get past 2016 recruiting.

I wonder where he likes to eat in Florida...  Just kidding!

Doc, please. People in the know think, "Toddle House."

Interesting fact: during segregation Toddle House opened an identical parallel brand of restaurants named, "Harlem House." Everything was identical except for some minor decor elements. The fact that corporations were this cynical when segmenting by race is just dumb founding.

Looks like South Florida was his only offer before this.  I wonder if this is similar to how Green Bay and Milwaukee have been the first offers and interest for many top Wisconsin players their sophomore years.  Seems they offer early and almost hope the players don't improve too much.

Looks like Figueroa is already on his way to blowing up if he's a 6-5 SG ranked in the top 75.
