I noticed a common theme about certain Shaka prospects is they can guard one through five

Marquette has been watching 6-7 SF TJ Power quite a bit this weekend.  Plays at Worcester Academy in Massachusetts.

Tre Norman plays for BABC too.  Weve offered and he's likely as much of a target as Power.

Thanks. I had not seen that name linked with MU.  But in light of the Lowery commitment, I'm expecting the recruiting focus to shift to the front court.

If Shaka takes another guard, Ames seem to be the top priority.  Just my two cents.

New offer over the weekend to Alabama native Jordan Burks.  Texas Tech, New Mexico St, and Eastern Michigan are other recent offers.

Listed anywhere from 6-6 to 6-9.  Long arms, great athlete, nice looking jumpshot with high release point.  Looks like a potential breakout recruit.

Here is some tape that lists him as 6-10. Wonder what height Mr.  Dodds will say he is?

More importantly, is he a blender of KD, Tatum, MJ, and Dirk or Giannis, Kawhi, Kobe, and Pippen?

"2023 @trenorman04 star guard from @thebabc and @WA_VBB
will be going on an official visit to @MarquetteMBB this Friday

Norman was offered in early 2022 and is one of the top guards in the 2023 class"

Hat tip to JTJ3 for identifying Norman as a priority recruit.

Chit, Dodds will ban him for no reason, hey?

Feels like more than a priority atm. Might be their guy in weeks

Interesting.  I was expecting the coaching staff to focus on 6-7 forwards and 6-9+ bigs after the Lowery commitment.

I definitely wasn't expecting a 6-3 CG to be targeted.  Looks like I will have to learn a lot more about Norman.

Is he actually one of the top guards in 2023 class? Seems like mostly a mid-major target.

I think Shaka likes to get his guards from high school and his bigs from the portal.

That does seem like the trend that is emerging huh

At Marquette,  Shaka's added 5 players from the portal and only one was a big.  Let's pump the brakes a bit.

I include forwards with bigs, so 3 of 5 were bigs

Does the NCAA regulate “priority ATMs”? 😂

Oh, my bad, I’m a little tipsy “at the moment”

If you look at his dad's Twitter, that certainly seems to be the case. He's been liking and interacting with a number of Marquette related tweets and accounts for the past couple weeks.

With 6 underclass men back this year and next, I do not understand what Shaka is doing?  Add Lowery and it will be 7.  He talks about building relationships, should some of those 6 be looking over their shoulder?  I know you recruit 24/7 but he is recruiting like he has another 5 open scholarships? Interesting

I need a card for the Arizona, Kansas or LSU ATM.

He's recruiting like he might have one extra spot open up after Lewis/Empty and Wrightsil. Which he likely will have. Especially with multiple players in the same position in the same class.
