Jamil makes the list at #15- here is the link and the blurb:

15. Jamil Wilson, F, Marquette Golden Eagles
Senior, 6-7, 230

Coach Buzz Williams and the Golden Eagles seem to find a new star every season. Wilson is a local kid who began his career at Oregon, and had a solid season in 2012-13, averaging 9.7 points and 4.9 rebounds per game. So it's not as though he'll come out of nowhere, but Wilson could be the next in the line of Marquette forwards (Lazar Hayward, Jimmy Butler, Jae Crowder) to emerge as a star.

Wilson has length and is a versatile scorer who was a role player last season, but now Williams needs him to be more assertive, and the word from the staff is that he has gotten tougher. This is a team that lost Vander Blue, Junior Cadougan and Trent Lockett, and needs someone to step up. Wilson figures to be the guy.
