Don't forget...

John Wall is the number one high school senior in the country.  He is a Derrick Rose type, a point guard who has it all.  He once beat Michael Porter one on one.  Blindfolded.  Most scouts say he is so good he will be a one and done player who goes to the NBA and is a lottery pick after one year. Why am I telling you this?  Because he has committed to Memphis but hasn't signed a letter of intent.  If he were to follow Calipari to Kentucky if Calipari indeed does get the job, and Meeks and Patterson stay, and Orton keeps his commitment watch out.  It is safe to assume we are preseason top 10 and a huge contender next year.

  1. This post is completely inaccurate. John Wall has not committed to Memphis, or any school for that matter.

    Wall's list of schools are Memphis & Duke. Memphis is said to have the edge, but who knows?

    DeMarcus Cousins is the player who has committed to Memphis, but has not signed his LOI.

  2. Also, Xavier Henry is the #1 ranked player in the nation.

    John Wall is the #1 player who has not committed / signed anywhere. Wall is the #1 PG in the land, but not #1 overall.

  7. Wall at 6 on ESPN? What a joke. But yeah Wall is undecided. Had it narrowed down to Duke and Memphis, but with Duke just getting Seth Curry and Coach K not being very found of the one and done guys... my guess would be Memphis. Unless Cal jumps ships, then KY HAS to become a player in his recruitment.
