Isreal Verbals On Visit

Omari Isreal, a strong 6-6, 215 pound small forward/swingman from Good Counsel H.S. in Wheaton, Md., committed to Notre Dame today, according to sources close to Isreal. As RivalsHoops.com reported last night, Isreal's trip was going well and he was close to making a decision. Isreal is currently finishing up a grand weekend at Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana.

Omari watched the Fighting Irish football team knock off Purdue before a loud, supportive crowd. Remember, Isreal previously told us he had offers on the table. Isreal said that Rhode Island, Penn State, Virginia, Notre Dame, and West Virginia had extended the scholarship offers to him at one time during the recruiting process.

He also had seen interest this summer from Georgia Tech, Maryland and Tennessee, but those programs did not offer the talented small forward from Rockville, Md. After attending the ABCD Camp and Three Stripes Tournament earlier this month, he concluded his summer out west with D.C. Assault at both the Big Time and Best of Summer Tournaments.
