Morris Twins to KU
The Morris twins out of New Jersey committed to KU tonight. Marcus is a 3/4 and Markieff is a 4/5. Both are very highly rated. Out of high school, they were both top 50 players on Scout.com, with Marcus #31 I believe. They committed to Memphis but decided to go to prep school (they were young seniors). Out of prep school, they are ranked the #3 and #4 post-graduate prospects in the nation by Scout.
These commitments fill the glaring hole anticipated in the 08-09 lineup. With DJ and Kaun gone to graduation and Arthur likely to leave to play for pay, Aldrich was our only scholarship big man. Now we have Q Thomas and both Morris twins to step in and contribute early, a role that I’m certain the twins savor.
Rock Chalk!!!
