We've also offered a couple of lower ranked kids who play the same position in the last couple of days. I know you keep on recruiting, but that could be an indication that Dan knows the odds are now pretty low that Marshall selects us.

Ahh I was curious how Holy Cross made the final list! I see what's going on there now.

So, he's waiting for Maryland to offer. If they do, he goes there. If not, we still have a shot.

Also strange that TCU is on his final list and he's never been there.

Agree, if he was seriously considering TCU, why not wait until Sept., do an official visit and then verbal?
Also, he supposedly visited Pitt and SC on the same day, they're not exactly down the road from each other so not much time on either campus.
Xavier has seemingly been at the top of his list, but they do already have a 2017 wing committed (J. Ridder) and are supposedly in hot pursuit of another, Jermaine Samuels.
If he really wants Maryland, its doubtful the Friday announcement happens.

I'm assuming that probably has something to do with Jamie Dixon, the former Pitt coach, being at TCU. Still my prediction would be Maryland, but I think Pitt probably has a good chance here (since he is still interested even though they've made a coaching change).

That is, if Maryland offers, which as of now, they haven't.

I would think the way Mack has been tracking him that X might be a favorite is Maryland doesn't offer. It would be huge to say the least to land a top 60 prospect going into a year where we should be hovering around the top 25-35.

We weren't recruiting EC and he blew up all of a sudden.....he had a good summer but didn't have the big boys swoop in....so I don't count that ....although I believe EC is a special kid....

I give Jared Terrell an asterisk.....he was recruited by big time schools.....and he ultimately came to us...but he spurned us first for the bright lights until he pulled a Dorothy Gale...and realized happiness would be in his own back yard (within 80 miles or so)

I'm an limiting it to kids who were mid major recruits until they blow up in the summer before their senior year and then go big time....

We're going to have to make several NCAA tournaments most likely before we're able to get the higher ranked kids. If EC gets drafted and possibly Iverson that will also help tremendously. At this point we're still a mid major who hasn't made the tournament in 17 years. I remember reading that De'Riante Jenkins who will be a freshman at VCU this year is their highest rated recruit ever and he's ranked about 45 nationally. So even VCU who has built a very good name for themselves in recent years and has beautiful facilities is just now getting a top 50 recruit.

It's an opinion, but I'm pretty sure. There's a reason you start following Luke Murray on twitter today. No, it doesn't mean it's 100% certain, but it's a pretty telling sign, if you ask me.

Marshall is listed as a SF, Harden a SG. Not really much of a difference these days. But Marshall is also rated quite a bit higher (52) than Harden (100).

So they have a SG verbal and a SF verbal? You gotta think that alone takes them out of the running positional wise, no? Not sure what they need but SF and SG are extremely similar these days.

Once again, there is a post on his Twitter account that states he'll be announcing his college choice on Friday night.

I hope he chooses Rhody, however we're up against a very tough list of schools. We have to be a long shot. I guess we'll see just how strong our recruiting chops are.

Nice overall game displayed in this tape
Also can see big time coaches watching including Calipari and Roy Williams in the mix tape. Maryland and TCU present in film.

I don't underestimate Dan Hurley and David Cox in this recruitment.
Luke Murray is a tireless recruiter, one of the hardest workers out there
Playing time in first year is a big enticement for URI - Our staff does a great job of showing a player exactly how he would fit in
Great that we are involved with players of this caliber

Although X has Luke Murray on staff, the assist for this one goes to Coach Mike Pegues. A DC native, he goes back to the DC Assault days with Coach Cox.
