I remember reading an article where Ayton said the only schools consistently recruiting him were Kansas and Arizona, and that he was also hearing from like Baylor or somewhere small.
When that was posted here, I think we all knew Cal was staying away on purpose, just like he did with Quincy Miller, Chris Walker, Lance Stephenson, Deuce Bello, Rodney Purvis, Kobi Simmons, Carlton Bragg, Billy Preston, Emmanuel Mudiay, Cliff Alexander, Diamond Stone, Antonio Blakeney, Josh Jackson, Dennis Smith Jr, Thon Maker, Devonta Pollard, Bruce Brown, Terrance Ferguson, Collin Sexton, Mitchell Robinson, Tre Duval, Troy Brown, Brian Bowen, Romeo Langford, Simi Shittu, Charles Bassey, Naz Reid, Louis King, Kira Lewis and others.
...and then you start looking at patterns and coincidences and affiliations and school choices and shoe companies and apparently Bill Self knows less about recruiting than I do.
