Markus Kennedy Commits to Villanova
6′9″ Power Forward Selects Villanova over West Virginia
Class of 2010 Power Forward Markus Kennedy committed to Villanova according to multiple sources. He told Jay Wright over the past weekend but will announce his decision at Living Faith Academy today at 130p.
The PDN has this story on Kennedy, Ready to Live his Dream.
A source close to Kennedy noted…
What I think sold Markus, who is a great kid, is coach [Jay] Wright. The family are good people, they’re local and they want to see Markus play as much as possible. With what Villanova runs, and the way Markus moves on the court, he’s a perfect fit for what they do. He’s a great addition.

Some 2010 PreSeason Rankings
It’s been a slow week so we’ll just throw out some 2010 PreSeason Rankings from some of the boys at ESPN.
Andy Katz: #6
The Wildcats drop a tad, as Scottie Reynolds’ decision to enter the draft without an agent has resulted in some uncertainity. But the incoming class — Maalik Wayns, Dominic Cheek and big man Mouphtaou Yarou all are top-25 recruits — is so good the Wildcats get the benefit of the doubt here. With the departure of three Syracuse underclassmen, Nova should be the pick to win the Big East.

The Next Wildcat Commitment?
Markus Kennedy to Make Decision on the 29th (by Scout)
Adam Zagoria is noting that 2010 recruit Markus Kennedy will be making an announcement for his college decision on Wednesday.
As we noted two weeks ago, the 6′9″ Philly Native was on campus yesterday. He will make his decision between Villanova and West Virginia.
Kennedy is rated #131 by Rivals, is given 3-Stars by Scout, and is #54 according to HoopScoop.
Yarou USA Today 2nd Team All-Americanm
The USA Today released their High School All-American Teams this week and Villanova signee Mouphtaou Yarou achieved their Second Team honors.
Villanovan Article… “Inside Wayns’ World”
The Villanovan has a pretty nice article on incoming freshman Maalik Wayns, Inside Wayns’ World.
It gives a little background on his recruitment and why he chose ‘Nova.
The insight on his dedication shows us that he understands what Villanova Basketball is, and that he is ready for it.
Cheek’s Letter of Intent Official
Official word from campus today that the fourth and final member of the 2009 Villanova Recruiting Class, Dominic Cheek, has signed his National Letter of Intent.
Of course we reported that the McDonald’s All-American signed last week, but it’s always good to see an official press release.
Dom, Welcome to the Villanova Family!
