Distance isn't a limit for Dayton, however. It is recruiting numerous players from the east coast and the south and even one from Phoenix, Jovan Blacksher Jr., and two from Fresno, Calif.: Prince Gillam and Ismael Cruz.

Dayton has pursued several players from coach Anthony Grant’s home state, Florida, since he took over, and the New York City area and the Dominican Republic, both areas familiar to assistant coach Ricardo Greer, have been well scouted by Dayton.

What level of player is Dayton recruiting: The Flyers had one of the top 2019 recruits, Kira Lewis, on campus last season, though his recruiting took off soon after that, and everyone from Indiana to Kentucky to Kansas are now after him.

They have also offered scholarships to these top-150 players on 247Sports.com's list of 2019 recruits: Lester Quinones (71st) and Tyson Etienne (134th). Curtis ranks 93rd. Tre Mann, another player Dayton recruited, ranks 36th.

How many players does Dayton need: Dayton has two open scholarships for 2018 and will have another scholarship opening in 2019 with the departure of Josh Cunningham. The seniors in 2020 will be Ryan Mikesell, Trey Landers and Jhery Matos.
