Kansas State added the fourth member of the Wildcats 2019 basketball recruiting class on Sunday. Junior college point guard David Sloan committed to the Wildcats after taking an official visit to the school.

Sloan chose K-State over other options, which also included Cincinnati and Georgetown.

The Louisville, Kentucky native discussed his choice with KSO.

“I felt very comfortable,” he explained. “The coaches did a great job recruiting me. The players are great and fun to be around.”

That explains how the visit to Manhattan won Sloan over, in comparison to the other trips he made to see the Bearcats and Hoyas.

Another main reason for Sloan's choice was his relationship with the coaches at Kansas State.

When he shared how the coaches did a great job recruiting him, he mostly meant associate head coach Chris Lowery.

The top assistant on the staff was the lead recruiter for the John Logan Community College point guard.

“He just built a different type of relationship with me,” Sloan noted. “I felt most comfortable with him.”

The Wildcats seem to do a good job of recruiting in head-to-head battles with other power schools for junior college recruits towards the end of the cycle.

The battle for Sloan was very similar to the one for Austin Trice a year ago.

K-State defeated Illinois, Syracuse and Oklahoma for Trice when he was exiting Wabash Valley Community College. The Wildcats topped Cincinnati and Georgetown for Sloan. They certainly hope that he can have a bit more of a positive impact than Trice left in Manhattan.

For Sloan, he was blunt in his response about his goal upon arriving at K-State.

“The point guard job,” he responded.

It’ll certainly be interesting how it plays out. The Wildcats also return Shaun Neal-Williams and Cartier Diarra, who are capable of fulfilling that type of role, as well.

Either way, K-State now has more options to help fill the void left by Kam Stokes and Barry Brown.
