Pass

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

From Mark Miller at Prephoops......

Jensen can affect a game from multiple spots on the floor. He can face up and make mid-range jump shots, pass into the post from the high post and set ball screens on the perimeter.

Sign him up!

Rico is doing a bit.

Doesn't fit culture

[MUDPT]

He attends Shaka's high school therefore he has no option.

Classmates at Oregon believe he's a Marquette lean.

So we're getting a traditional?

I think he's doing a lot.

Anyone with ESPN+ can tune into the 2nd half of LuHi vs. Sierra Canyon.

Marquette commit Nigel James plays for LuHi and LeBron James son is on Sierra Canyon.

Based on recent chatter as well as what I could gather online, these currently appear to be the 2026 recruiting prospects of most interest (listed in no particular order):

• Tarris Bouie (4*) - visited
• Adam Boyd (3*) - visited
• Vaughn Karvala (4*) - visited
• Ethan Johnston (3*) - visiting Feb 24
• JJ Andrews (4/5*) - visiting Jan 31
• Andrew Jensen (3*) - visited
• Sheek Pearson (4*) - revisiting Jan 18
• Alex Egbuonu (3/4*) - visiting Jan 2

Figured I'd put them all together for easier reference. In addition to having received a scholarship offer, each has been seen by Shaka & company in person and/or made official plans to visit Marquette if they haven't done so already. It's early, so this list is obviously still developing. Let me know if I missed anyone; I'll do my best to update accordingly.

Others with expressed interest in MU but pending an official offer or plan to visit: Jayden Johnson (visit), Josh Manchester (offer), Luca Foster (offer).

I'd take off Manchester.  He's visited but no offer and don't think he is a priority (don't think coaches have been out to see him play).

Add in Sheek Pearson and Alex Egbuonu. Pearson visited in October for the open scrimmage and will be back Jan 18th for the Xavier Game. Egbuonu was offered by Shaka this fall.

Thanks for that, I actually have a second list I forgot about until you reminded me. Those two are on it. Will edit accordingly.

Disagree on Manchester.  He's still very interested from what I hear.

[K1 Lover]

There are and will be many prospects that receive offers, so to keep the list concise and focused on those with actual interest toward MU, I'll keep it limited to recruiting candidates that have both received an offer AND visited Marquette (or made concrete plans to do so).

For those who may soon join this list but don't yet fulfill both criteria, I added a separate informal list at the bottom.

Giddy up

He may be interested but I don't think its mutual. He does not have an offer

Pass

Saw Karvala twice the last two weeks.  I've seen some pretty good leapers in my basketball life and in regards to explosiveness, it brought me back to the late 70's and Park Falls athlete David Greenwood.  Karvala is one of the very select few prep players I've seen who literally looks like he's suspended in air. 

Marquette coaches were at both games I was at, so I'll let them determine whether he's a priority.

[WhiteTrash]

Pass

But Baxter just empowered the MU coaching staff to evaluate him ("so I'll let them determine whether he's a priority."); so your vote does not count. 

[THRILLHO]

Pass

I understand this is a bit but its one that is more obnoxious than the thing its mocking. And honestly im not that sure what its mocking - the usual suspects havent really been that obnoxious in this thread.
