Marshall Basketball Recruiting Targets

From Chuck McGill’s Daily Mail column: http://www.dailymail.com/Sports/MUSports/201003231054

Until then, keep an eye on these names as potential future Herd hoopsters:

Jarvis Davis - A 6-1 guard from Hargrave Military Academy who seemed all but a lock to go to Charlotte until Bobby Lutz was fired last week. In addition to the Herd and Niners, Davis is getting looks from Big XII schools Nebraska and Texas Tech, as well as the Missouri Valley's Wichita State.

Dennis Mavin - A 6-2 combo guard from Gainesville, Fla., who transferred from Eastside to The Rock School for his senior season. Mavin competed in the North Central Florida All-Star Game last week, where he scored 23 points, grabbed eight rebounds, dished out five assists and hit 4-of-7 shots from behind the 3-point line.

Kenyon McNeaill - A 6-foot guard who just led Conway (Ark.) High School to the Class 7A state championship. McNeaill scored just 1 point in the title game after he sprained his shooting wrist in the semifinals. McNeaill has Marshall, UAB and Seton Hall leading for his services.

Gorgui Dieng - This is a name familiar to Herd recruitniks. Dieng is a 6-10, 210-pounder who arrived at Huntington Prep this year from Senegal, Africa. It is widely reported that it's a two-horse race for Dieng's services: Louisville and Marshall.

Expect Jones to go hard after Dieng in the coming weeks, however, to persuade the lanky shot blocker to stay in Huntington.
