Colin Chieverton: 2008 recruiting target

77ncaachamps over on MUScoop did a bit of research and identified another kid that Tom Crean is recruiting for the 2008 freshman class. His name is Colin Chieverton from Archbishop Mitty in San Jose.

Looks like Chieverton is a 6-5 SG/SF who is very interested in both MU and Oklahoma for now. Click here to read more and see the action shots of Chieverton.

Its still early, but TC is in on yet another high-ceiling talent. BTW - how about Crean's national recruiting base of late?! MU has a 2008 commitment from Nick Williams from Alabama, and is actively recruiting players in New Jersey (Jordan Theodore among many others), Maryland (Maurice Sutton), Pennsylvania (Jonathan Baldwin), and Oklahoma (Rotnei Clarke - -not sure he's a TC priority though) -- just as a sample.

I heard through the rumor mill that Rob Belcore from Loyola Academy, IL committed to play at mu in 2008. Anyone else hear of this?

coach moeller -- we'll look into it. Rob Belcore did visit MU in early March per a report in the Sun-Times. TC did see Loyola play last month -- at the time we presumed it was to watch Jeffrey Jordan, but maybe that was not the case

Tell TC to close the deal on a true big man.

Thanks for the props.

Let's hope TC can not only continue to recruit from all regions of the country but coach this MU team to a VICTORY in the NCAA tourney!
