Rivals 150

Rivals.com updated their top 150 recruits for the class of 2009. I thought I would list all the guys I know X is recruiting or have been listed with:

#39-Mfon Udofia (rivals lists all kinds of schools with him with X and UC (Dave you were right) only getting 'medium interest' from him.

#59-Ari Stewart (rivals dropped him from 5 stars to 4 with this latest rating, of note UC is not listed on his laundry list of schools)

#65-Omari Lawrence (going to be hard to score another great guard with this class off the efforts and signings of the '08 class but Book has a connection with him)

#81- Brian Oliver (another wing X and UC are in the hunt for but he has four leaders and neither of the Queen City schools are in that group)

#83- Durand Scott (another great scoring guard out of New York, Book has an 'in' with him too via the New York Gauchos AAU team)

#93- Tevin Baskin (his recruiting has picked up and he has listed no favorites at this time to my knowledge, but lots of big timers are checking in)

#101- Sherrod Wright (another big scoring guard from the Big Apple, and yep you guessed it Book is the reason this guy is listing us even though we have a great young crop of guards)

#102- Andrew Fitzgerald (the big man has in his top three along with UK and Pitt, he is expressing 'high' interest in all of us. I believe he has a visit to UK this weekend)

#114- Kammeon Holsey (appears we are losing ground with this kid who appears to be down to Clemson and GA Tech)

#115- Terrance Shannon (another fantastic wing prospect from the state of Georgia. The Peach State is really loaded with talent this year)

#117- Carl Jones (small guard from Garfield Heights is listing us)

#140- James Still (athletic post out of Detroit would go nicely with our current crop of big men)

#141- Kevin Parrom (Bronx, NY native is a team mate of Omari Lawrence's at St. Raymond HS. He is a reported strong XU lean and I will post a scouting report on him soon. Once again this is a Book target I believe)
