MU Recruits in HS tournaments

[Earl Tatum]

I would take Winston and Anderson, both Juniors. Key is a Senior. Probably be a low D1 player. Great backup for MU though.
Worth A schollie, don't know.

Key is really good.  I like him, but he's short.  To be honest I'm more impressed with him than with Anderson.  Not sure he's fit for Marquette at this point, though.

Where is the noise about Winston coming from?  None of the recruiting services even list him having any interest in us (I know, they often get their information wrong, but usually when a school is in his "final 3" at least 1 of the services would at least list some interest in the long lists they put together of schools he has an interest in)?

I live in the Detroit area so all my info comes from people I've talked to around here, including U of D folks. I understand the skepticism, but I'm pretty confident that we're a strong player in this recruitment.

He visited MU (unofficial) back in October and our coaching staff went to one of his games in January. That's about all I can scrap together.

Key signed an NLI at Northern Illinois in November. 

[LAZER]

I think a class of Winston, Coffey, and Hauser would be ideal.

Well if Wojo can pull that off, I think MU basketball will be in a very, very good place.

Gotcha, thanks, was just curious.  He would be a great get.

Nope, different dude.

Thanks for the heads up. Been a pretty stealth recruitment so far. Would LOVE to see him sign an NLI for us. Winston, Coffey and Hauser would be another stud class (assuming we have 3 to give).

Oh right.  Brandon Key of West Allis Central...not Jaylen Key of Homestead.

Thanks.

Winston's name was brought up on some blogs, figured he was interested in MU. I noticed he wasn't mentioned on the ESPN, Yahoo or rivals. Would have been a great get.

Don't have to say "would have been". It's still possible.

Izzo has been on Cassius the longest and was just visiting him a week or so ago. Be tough to take a top 25 kid out of Izzo's backyard with their current success; and MU missing back to back tourneys

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Perhaps. I really haven't heard much about Winston and Wojo lately anyways, so if anyone can shed light on that recruitment it'd be great. I think Coffey and Hauser are the top priorities right now, despite the PG need.

Full court press for Cassius Winston from what I hear. Has had some very good response early in the game. Top priority along with Coffey and Hauser. Would be be the best point we've had since Diener if the reviews are to be believed.

I wouldn't put a whole lot of weight on those sites just yet.  I havent checked Yahoo or Rivals, but ESPN has only 2 recruits "Considering" us in 2016, and Hauser isn't on there.

Wojo isn't exactly handing his offers out there like candy and is playing things very close to the vest.  We were supposedly not in on Traci Carter - until we were and Wojo got him. 

Let's see how things play out between now and fall. 

[swoopem]

U of D has a playoff game tonight. Apparently Izzo is going to be there to watch Cassius.

[4everwarriors]

Wow, he can take time outta his busy Tourney prep to watch some high school baller. Must really want the cat, hey?

[sailwi]

UD alum, just checked the Free Press and UD won to move onto state semis, first picture I saw was Izzo walking into Calihan Hall to watch the game.  I know someone with UD connections who said MU is in the mix for Winston but MSU is still the leader.  I did read a story that his parents really like the education he is getting at UD and like the Jesuit environment so maybe that helps.

Cassius had the game winner

[MattyWarrior]

Espn is very unreliable and lazy with the recruiting info on their site.

Wojo should have a couple priests flying with him on his next visit!
