Marquette offers 2015 PG Traci Carter

[willie warrior]

I don't believe Mark has ever predicted someone to Marquette that didn't commit to Marquette. I don't expect him to be wrong this time either.

Is that really the guy's track record on MU predictions? If so, how the hell does he find out this stuff? I know Sherlock Holmes claimed he never guesses, so what gives with Miller?

He's very well connected. When it comes to hoops in the state of Wisconsin, Miller is THE guy and everyone knows it.

He's in good with a lot of AAU coaches,who normally know the players decision before most people.

Decision set for tomorrow! Got to be a good sign.

Looking good for MU. Fresh off his visit.

Its interesting that Wojo seems to have told Traci that the starting PG job is his.  "Hand him the keys" is what I think was reported to have been said.  That is a lot of faith to place in a high school kid.  I remember when we did that with DJ the year of the 3 amigos and it worked BUT as I recall DJ was a top 40 kid and acknowledged to be one of the top PGs in the nation coming out of HS.  Running the point in a tough league like the BE is going to be pretty demanding for a true freshman.  I've got to hope that Wojo is a good judge of talent because he seems to be all in on this one.  Don't know if you can get a Grad Transfer PG if he doesn't think he is going to be the starter.  Hey I'm excited, I just hope it works.

Where was it reported WoJo was going to hand him the keys?

Who else was gonna get the keys?   We needed a good pg bad.

"He will be given a CHANCE".  His guardian got it exactly right.  Of course he'll be given a chance.

4-star PG Traci Carter confirms to me that he will announce his college decision at noon Eastern. Huge stock raiser this winter.

Scout.com Evaluation

Coming off knee injury that held him out his final spring and summer on the AAU circuit, Carter has shown good speed, toughness and shooting ability. He's quick off the bounce, looks to create opportunities for his teammates and is a good passer. He'll need to cut down on his turnovers and value the ball more, but he's able to run a team. He's also an impressive long-range shooter that can heat up and make shots from mid-range too.

Forget 'bout the keys. This dude's got push button start, ai na?

[mugrack]

Hope Wojo can snatch him up

[wadesworld]

His face looks like Mateen Cleeves's.  Hopefully his college career goes similarly to Cleeves's, ai'na?

I thought he looked like Sugar Ray Leonard.

My favorite part of that video is his (lack of) celebration - he shoots, he scores.... he runs back on D. 

Nice change of pace to the touchdown-esque celebrations that have become a staple of high school hoops.
