Powerade Fab 50 Preseason List

Published by Source on October 20th, 2011

ESPNHS has released its preseason Powerade Fab 50, a list of the 50 best boy’s high school basketball teams in the country. There are a number of Illinois and Indiana teams on the list, as well as plenty of teams with players committed to or being recruited by B1G and Chicago-area colleges. Here’s the highlights of the list:

 

1. Simeon Career Academy (Chicago, IL)

- Chicago powerhouse Simeon landed the well-deserved top spot on this year’s list. Behind outstanding junior Jabari Parker, considered by some to be the best player in the 2013 class, the Wolverines lineup features several other highly-touted prospects. Senior Steve Taylor is already committed to Marquette, while junior Kendrick Nunn recently re-opened his recruitment after making an early pledge to Texas A&M. Also joining the group is junior point guard Jaylon Tate, who transferred to Simeon from De La Salle this past summer. Tate has been hearing from most of the B1G already, plus hometown DePaul, and has already landed an offer from Northwestern.

Anthony Clemmons commits to Iowa

Published by Source on September 26th, 2011

With four solid players already committed to Iowa in the class of 2012, head coach Fran McCaffery is moving the program in the right direction. On Sunday the stellar class grew to five with the commitment of Lansing, MI (Sexton) point guard Anthony Clemmons.

The 6’1″ Clemmons gave his pledge to the Hawkeyes after making an official campus visit over the weekend. He was also considering Detroit, Eastern Michigan, Northern Illinois and Western Michigan. He had committed briefly to EMU earlier this summer but reopened his recruitment.

Clemmons has built a friendship with current Hawkeye and fellow Michigan-native Devyn Marble, who served as his player host for the visit. He told Rivals.com that he hopes to make it back to Iowa City the weekend of October 15th to join fellow Hawkeye commits Adam Woodbury (ranked #42 overall) and Mike Gesell (#96)  on their official visits.

As a junior at Sexton, Clemmons averaged 12 point, 4 rebounds and 4 assists per game. He plays alongside Michigan State commit Denzel Valentine (#80) and mid-major prospect Bryn Forbes.
