Jim Les nabs a prep point

Per Josh Gershon: "U.C. Davis nabbed a commitment from 2013 San Diego St. Augustine PG Brynton Lemar, per a source"

Here's Frank Burlison from back in May:

*Brynton Lemar (6-1/17U SDA Pump N Run/San Diego, CA, St. Augustine)
Frank Says: He challenged Benson and London Perrantes for the crown of best passer in the event.

Lance Whitaker and UC Davis

UC Davis has Lance Whitaker on campus for an official visit this weekend, per Alex Kline/The Recruit Scoop (a Rivals sub is required). Whitaker is a 6-foot-3 point out of Illinois, the state stomping grounds for Coach Jim Les' previous coaching position.

*** UPDATE Further investigation located this Erik Jacobsen article dated September 24 in which Whitaker says he committed to University Illinois Chicago so tripping to California must be off. ***

Davis offers a 2014 Las Vegas point

From Eric Bossi (a Rivals sub is required):

2014 point guard Noah Robotham has taken his game to a new level...Standing about 5-foot-10 or 5-foot-11, Robotham is a clever, confident and smart point guard who can make open jumpers. Since last year, he's become noticeably quicker and he was outstanding at the Fall Showcase. His first offer is from UC-Davis but Weber State, Southern Utah, Pepperdine, BYU and UNLV are among those now tracking him.

Jim Les like a 2014 point

Josh Gershon tweets: "2014 Flintridge Prep PG Robert Cartwright picked up an offer from U.C. Davis"

Here's a February 2011 feature on Cartwright.

UC Davis extends an offer

From Eric Bossi: "Keep an eye on Double Pump Elite 2013 shooting guard/small forward Michael Thomas. A 6-foot-5 senior to be at El Camino Real in Los Angeles, Thomas is a late blooming southpaw with athleticism, length and a very good looking jump shot. Early suitors include Boise State, UC-Davis and Utah State as his first three offers to go along with interest from Washington State, Arizona State, Nevada and UCSB."
