St. Frances is a big time program in Baltimore. Be nice to get a pipeline going.
Lewis would be a huge recruiting win for the program.
I think he may have been at the LeBron Nike camp where Cory and Alec were counselors this summer. Rep to anyone who can find that out one way or the other.
...you sure Cory was there?
Greg Lewis was: http://inside.nikebasketball.com/ne..._bb/images/elite-youth/pdfs/lebron-roster.pdf
Alec was, but I'm not sure if Higgins was there.
does gary williams let him out of the state and if so does he get west of philly?
Gary isnt very good at keeping Maryland kids in-state [/SIZE][/FONT]
There isn't really an "in state" for Marylanders. The metro area is so small you really bring in eastern PA, DC, VA, WV and just a little further Carolina. Think of the schools (UMD, GTown, Nova, Temple, WVU, UVA, VaTech, NC State, UNC, Duke) all are within 4 hours or so of each other. I hope the Buffs land him, but I'd be shocked if a Bal'mer kid came west. It would certainly be a change in scenery for him.

is he still growing? 6-9 is a bit short for center.
I wouldnt say that around someone who grew up in MD, PA or VA, there is a big difference. That whole Civil War thing really annoyed a lot of people.
Growing up in Maryland, on the river across form Virginia, I would say there is a lot more In-State pride then there is in Colorado. And areas like Baltimore are way more intense about the whole Maryland thing too.
I didn't mean to imply that their wasn't in state pride, just that kids in Maryland tend to go to college all over the region whether it be the "basketball" schools I mentioned or other smaller schools in the region. Folks aren't nuts about UMD
P.S. I am a native Marylander, growing up in Talbot County on the Shore, and have a degree from UMD as well as dear ole CU. I know for a fact that there is no life west of the bay and I'm sorry you had to grow up there. :smile2:
