MU future recruits

[Daniel]

Buzz did spend a few moments talking about this in Chicago for sure, and it makes sense.  I just hope we can really hone in and close some of these guys awe are in on now.  We get close, but we need to wint hem over to MU.

Go Marquette!

Cameron Clark committed to OU today; who is next in line?

My feeling is Desrosiers...

This will be a huge weekend for both Desroisers, and Clark. Desroisers is coming off his official to ASU and Clark is just getting back from OU. It could be possible that they both commit to those schools...

This thread is worthless without pictures

agreed... there is only one proper way to discuss ASU, and that is with pictures!

Say goodbye to JJ Moore.  He cut his list, and we didn't make it.

Update:

Cameron Clark SF - Oklahoma
Trae Golden PG - Tenn
J.J. Moore - SG (the one with the MU shorts on video) - eliminates MU
Shane Southwell - SG eliminates MU
Walker C - still out there
Vander Blue SG - still out there
Cory Joseph PG - still out there
Carson Desrosiers C - eliminates MU

Three spots open for the team.  If Buzz can't connect with any of the above left, where does he go.  Just can't go to "fill-ins" or save. Still some time left, but these kids are commiting like crazy in the last two weeks.  

Changed to reflect Desrosiers out.

Jayvaughn Pinkston is still out there.  He's visited MU for both Elite Camps, an official is planned for later in the year.  But he's already said half a dozen times or more that he's not making a decision until the spring.

Justin Coleman is still out there, but he's headed for at least a year of Prep School, if not Prep and JUCO.

There are others as well.

Isn't Pinkston like 6ft 6in, 230 and plays PF? Is that a position the staff is looking for? I for one would take any 4 star recruit regardless of position needs at this point.

You are right with Coleman and that is why I did not list him. Serious grade issues and he just transferred to another "relaxed" high school.

As far as others, I just listed the highly ranked recruits that have positively mentioned MU serious interest. If you know of others, please add.  If all are gone, then we can start a new Plan B list.

My friend, a huge PITT alumni junkee, just called while typing this and mentioned J.J. Moore.  He said Maurice Walker is also a lock for PITT.  Who knows, he might just be giving me a bunch of crap.

The following is an excerpt from today's NBE Basketball report:

"Dixon might not be done yet as Pitt is thought to be the leader for South Kent wing J.J. Moore (Brentwood, NY/South Kent School) and 6′10 big Maurice Walker (Canada/Brewster Academy)."

Pinkston, as was posted, is a probably spring signee somewhere. We have 3 scholarships to fill, so I don't mind leaving 1 open for the spring, but pickings are always slimmer then, so I'd hope we don't wait to fill all 3 until then. In the meantime, we seem to be reduced to scrounging for table scraps.

Man...maybe since Junior can't play, he can do a little recruiting and get his Toronto buddies Joseph and Walker to commit to us. 

Vander Blue would be nice, as well.

Those 3 were actually the guys I was hoping for the most.

[ChicosBailBonds]

That would be the dream class.

Others to consider would include:
SF J.J. Moore
PG Brandon Young

Brandon Young committed to DePaul

[GOMU1104]

Brandon Young committed to DePaul

Thanks for the breaking news!

Thanks for the breaking news!

Sorry, didn't see it posted anywhere.

I see Trae Golden just committed to Tennessee.  I know we haven't been involved with him for a while but I was still kind of hoping for a Golden/Blue backcourt.   

While a Golden/Blue backcourt won't happen, who knows, we might end up with a Black and Blue in our starting 5.
