AARIC MURRAY LOOKS AT VILLANOVA

July 24, 2008



Aaric Murray continues to move up in the recruiting rankings and gather offers from schools across the country – but the rising senior is in no rush to make a decision.

“I’m not really sure of a time,” Murray told the Jeff Borzello of the NBE Basketball Report recently. “I want to make sure that I won’t be mad or regret my decision.”

However, the 6-foot-10, 230 lb. center did add that he would like to choose before the start of his final high school season. When asked what schools were recruiting him, Murray gave a laundry list of Big East and Atlantic-10 teams.


“West Virginia, Saint Joseph’s, Villanova, Marquette, Temple, La Salle,” he said. “Do you want me to keep going? Pittsburgh, Rutgers, Connecticut, Kentucky. . .”

Jay Wright and the Villanova Wildcats have already secured verbal commitments from a Philly-area point guard in Maalik Wayns as well as exciting forward Isaiah Armwood out of Maryland. Hoping to cap one of the nation's top recruiting classes off in style, coach Wright and his staff have targeted St. Anthony's (NJ) shooting guard Dominic Cheek, Maryland forward Terrell Vinson a high school and AAU teammate of Armwood, and Murray, which would give the Wildcats a definite new era version of their own 'Fab 5.'
