From all reports in the recruiting services circles,
Fletcher is looking at UW-Milwaukee, UW-Green Bay, and
if Muhammad comes to UC, Baylor is also on Fletchers
list.

Jamar - verballed, but didn't sign.
Alex Galindo - Signed with UTEP, but just today got
released from his
written< commitment.
Pilgrim - participated in MidMad, but that was it.
So nothing is guaranteed.

PG - We are going after a PG and thats been
extensively discussed. I'm
thinking that Jihad Muhammad will commit to
Cincinnati some time soon to
add to Banks and Bright. Then if Pilgrim is not on
the team for
whatever reason that will open up a scholly to a big
man, simply because
we've just gotten three guards. If there is no big
man available, Lofton
is in. My opinion.

2005 - Just because there are no listed PF's or C's
on the database,
doesn't mean that we aren't recruiting them. It
just means I haven't
discovered them yet.

D Fletcher - I've started a file on Fletcher, simply
because of the one
quote in a Sheboygan newspaper. If more media
mention him, I'll make the
file "active".

Does anybody have a clue to where the last
scholarship will go? It sounds like Chris
Lofton is a near lock for us, but we have
heard that story before(Tack Minor-Jamar Butler).
So that gives us one more scholarship if Pilgrim
doesn't get his academics in order.

Will Huggs
go after the JC point guard or will he give the
scholarship to a big men. I heard that Jerome Habel
has re-opened his recruitment and is exploring all
options. He sounds like a big risk giving the
fact that he is currently attending night school.

As for the 2005 class, how come we are not
recruiting
any power forwards or centers. We lose Maxiell and
Whaley after next year. If I was a high school PF
or
C playing on the east coast I would be licking my
chops
for Cincy to recruit me. They have a chance to come
in and start their freshmen year, while playing in
the
best basketball conference ever assembled.

The last thing I am wondering about is our schedule
for
next year. It sounds like we will be battle tested
with
some quality opponents. We play Purdue-Wake
Forest-Xavier-
Dayton...Does anybody know who else will be playing
in the
Las Vegas Invitational in December? And I heard
that ESPN
is trying to schedule a marquee game against a Big
East opponent next
year. Does anybody know anything about that game?
