In the last couple of weeks, the intensity of the recruitment of Racine Horlick forward Jamil Wilson has heated up big time with a new school emerging - Duke, and an old school (Illinois) resurfacing.

RACINE, WI - In the last couple of weeks, the intensity of the recruitment of Racine Horlick forward Jamil Wilson has heated up big time.

Recently the Duke Blue Devils have entered the race and appear to have a real shot at landing one of the Midwest top players.

can you post the rest?

Negative, thats all I have.  No subscription.  Plus, I don't want to get any further depressed.

It suffices to say that MSU is putting out a full court press to land him.

As I stated here many months before any of this news came out, the guy is not coming to Marquette.  From what I've seen and heard he wants to be at a big time program; unfortunately Marquette isn't a "big time" program.

I believe that we all should take the stance that if Wilson comes to Marquette it is gravy on the '09 class. Realistically the possibility of us landing him will decrease after he dominates in AAU this spring and we probably will be out recruited by someone like Tom Izzo who has everything including the name, the history, the school, and he is close enough to home. We, on the other hand, have playing time and thats really it.

I love to remain optimistic, i really do but from everyting Ive read on Wilson lately Marquette rarely gets mentioned. Are we still right at the top? Probably, but give it a year. I think that if we all think the success of Buzz as a recruiter lies on if he gets Wilson or not, we are setting the bar too high. Lets not forget how crushed we all were when Iman Shumpert chose Frickin Georgia Tech over Tom Crean's Warriors last year. If we land Lacy, Williams, and Maymon I consider Buzz's first recruiting year an outstanding success

I got over that very quickly with the signing of Taylor.

No Mayman, No Wilson.

Wilson should be sold on the fact that he will garner lots of playing time. Buzz has to let him play his talented butt on the court.

And not ride the pine behind 7 other AAs at Duke or UNC.
