@247HSHoops

Joe Tipton just announced that Lebanese forward Karim Rtail is currently down to four schools: SMU, Arkansas, Penn State and Butler. The 6-foot-9 forward has been playing professionally in Lebanon the last few seasons and is certainly a versatile talent.

At this point, I do NOT expect SMU to be a serious player in his recruitment, despite being in his Top 4, but will provide an update in this forum if anything changes.

@KevinCook

Rtail committed to Arkansas. As @247HSHoops said, SMU wasn’t that involved.
