DePaul basketball recruiting: Blue Demons offer 2021 4-star guard Wesley Cardet Jr.

The DePaul Blue Demons handed an offer out to one of 2021’s more premier combo guards.

Wesley Cardet Jr. fielded an offer from the Blue Demons on Monday morning. The Fort Lauderdale, Florida native tweeted out the news of his scholarship offer from DePaul on his personal Twitter account:

Cardet Jr. has been making waves in the 2021 recruiting cycle. The 6-foot-6, 175-pound combo guard is one of the better players in this cycle. Nationally, he ranks 102nd per 247Sports Composite and is even higher on 247Sports’ standalone rankings, as he sits 49th in the nation. As far as combo guards go, Cardet Jr. ranks seventh amongst the field and fifth on 247Sports’ standalone rankings. That group is led of course by the talented Jaden Hardy out of Coronado High School in Henderson, Nevada. In the state of Florida, Cardet Jr. ranks 11th and then 7th in 247Sports’ standalone rankings.

Thus far, DePaul is the latest of many to offer him. They are the second Big East program, joining the St. John’s Red Storm in that department. Additionally, he’s fielded offers from Howard, Florida A&M, Rutgers, Kansas State, Maryland, Iowa State, Alabama, Clemson, USC, Dayton and Florida, among a host of others.
