I had some time this morning and took a look at a few of the potential 2009 recruits that have been mentioned in the past week or so. I really only looked at Scout (so take this all with a grain of salt since rankings are somewhat meaningless), but when you compare who we are rumored with in the 2009 class to 2005 class, what I think is Crean's best class in 9 years, I think we are in ok shape. I did not include Wilson in here because if we land him that really changes everything.

Thoughts?
-
What happened to Varez Ward?
-
once "offered" changes to "committed" i will feel a little more confident

What happened to Varez Ward?
He's 2008.
-
Question for the Wisconsin folks, is Wilson good enough to be one and done (two and done?) or is he a three, maybe outside chance at a four year player?
-
tough to say for certain, but hes certainly got the potential to be a 1 or 2 and done player
-

If he's a one and done, wouldn't that increase the likelihood he comes to MU next year? Next year's team is a good one for a one and done type of recruit.
-
Wilson would not be on next years team, he is a 2009 recruit.
-
Although i remain commited to staying within the state for 2009, if i was to go outside of the state for any of these players it would definitely be Tommy Mason-Griffin. Obviously we are offering a starting job for an elite Point Guard which should be enticing to a recruit. To add on isn't Houston (his hometown) where Buzz has all of his connections?
-
Question MU Chi_IL where are you hearing these rumors from?
-
All I did was gather names that have been toss around on the board. I figured since I was looking at the info, others might find it interesting as well so I put it out there.
-
I just dont see Wilson one or two and done, my guess is a 3 or 4 year deal depending on what the NBA does with eligibility. He may go early the question is will he have the body and skills when he wants to go.
-
Here is another name I had not heard for 2009 PG
Justin Jordan - Fort Wayne

Get these guys:
#44 SF 4 star Erik Williams
#72 PF 4 star Jeronne Maymon
#91 PG 4 star Johnnie Lacy
and the rankings, stars, and positions look pretty (eerily) similar to these rankings:
#43 PG 4 star D James
#54 SF 4 Star J McNeal
#94 SG 4 Star W. Matthews

Insert Donte Hill for Jeronne Maymon and I think you have your recruiting class. We have a good chance at Maymon though. In regards to your comparrison though it would be a much different team with the same look: johnnie lacy actually shoots threes and Erik Williams would be the focal point of the offense
