Marquette Recruiting?
« on: January 30, 2009, 11:20:16 AM »
What local schools do you think produce the best talent/provide Marquette with the best resource for recruiting? This Top 25 list seems to indicate Bay Port, but I'm interested in your thoughts on the MU recruiting front.

Bay Port?  Have they ever produced a major Division 1 player? 

Just because they are a good high school team, from a sectional that hasn't produce a state champion in my memory, that doesn't mean they are a good source of talent for MU.  It is pretty hard to narrow that down to a single school though.

Given the actual track record of turning out D1 prospects, it would have to be Madison Memorial.  Matthews and Maymon to us, Nankivil and Vander Blue (for now) to the Badgers.

That's kind of what I was wondering. If the sectional isn't that strong, is it strange that the team made the National Top 25 list....

Good point that it's hard to narrow down to one school. Are there particular regions or districts around the state that produce the best talent?

If it's based on providing Marquette talent, it's got to be Memorial because of the current connections.  If it's which high school produces the most D-1 talent, then recent history shows it to be Milwaukee Vincent, and it's not really close.  Off the top of my head, Vincent has produced the following high major players in the past 10 years.

Diante Garrett - Iowa State
Marshall Williams - NC State, MU
Marcus Landry - UW
Carl Landry - Purdue
Jose Winston - Colorado
Boo Wade - UW
Quemont Greer - Depaul

Further, when you add in guys that went to lower D1 schools like Deonte Tatum, Bryquis Perrine etc the numbers are staggering.

Of course, that could change given that Vincent did all of that under Tom Diener and and he's now at Hamilton.

simply put, teams are not recruited, players are.

Man, how did I forget him.  I was trying to think of the big guy that played with Williams and Winston and just couldn't remember the name.  Sanders did go to Vincent, then spent a year at Hargrave Military Academy before coming to MU.

Perhaps, but it would have been a mistake for him to choose MU as well. No chance he plays ahead of McNeal or Matthews, so he'd be riding pine, getting maybe 15-18 mpg, until his senior year.
