4/7

The Playground Elite squad is loaded with some of the top class of 2009 players in Wisconsin and is led by 6-foot-7 forward Jamil Wilson of Racine Horlick. Wilson looks longer and more athletic every time I watch him and though he was not spectacular, he did show the kind of versatility that has collegiate recruiters from across the country excited about his potential at the next level. Simply put, there is nothing Wilson cannot do on the court. The trick for Wilson is to do it more consistently and many believe that will come with maturity.......

I asked Playground Elite coach Bryan Johnikin about the recruiting status of Wilson and Lacy as it relates to Marquette University with the move of coach Tom Crean to Indiana University last week. Both Wilson and Lacy had scholarship offers from Crean when he was the coach at Marquette. Johnikin said Crean has contacted him and plans to get involved with both Wilson and Lacy in his new role at Indiana. Johnikin also said he believes the same could be said for Marquette, though a lot will depend on who the Golden Eagles hire as their new head coach.
