A couple things are quickly becoming clear about Villanova's approach to the 2025 class. First, Kyle Neptune and company are looking for backcourt players. Second, they are not shying away from going after the elite prospects in the class.
With five-star Meleek Thomas already holding an offer from Nova, the Cats got out an offer to another prospect at the top of the 2025 rankings. This time it's five-star point guard Isiah Harwell, who is currently the No. 5 ranked prospect in the 2025 class (Thomas is ranked No. 7). Harwell plays at Wasatch Academy in Utah.
His recruitment is already competitive, as you would expect with a top 10 prospect, with schools like Arizona State, Baylor, Creighton, Florida State, Houston, Kansas, North Carolina, St. John's, Texas, Texas Tech, UCLA, Duke, Gonzaga and Kentucky, among others.
