Sounds like he woulda been a pretty good get:

This 6-4 guard with a ‘pretty’ shot just became the Badgers men’s basketball team’s first 2022 commit

The Badgers land a commit from Connor Essegian, the nation’s No. 45 ranked shooting guard and No. 7 ranked member of Indiana’s class of 2022.

It wasn’t until the summer after his junior year that bigger programs started to take note of the shooting guard. He competed in some events for both his high school team and AAU team that offered more exposure to bigger schools.

That’s when the offers started flooding in. He had at least 20 offers from Division I programs, including two in the Big Ten, by July. He became the first member of the class of 2022 to commit to the University of Wisconsin on Wednesday.

Essegian narrowed his options to seven schools in early August. He picked the Badgers over Loyola Chicago, Creighton, Minnesota, Purdue Fort Wayne, Wake Forest and Butler.
