February 8
Friday saw the National Recruiting Wrap column posted at CBS Sports' Max Preps and the Barton Brothers, Will and Antonio, were the feature this week. News on Terrence Ross, one of the top unsigned players, transferring mid-year as well as Arizona, Marquette and UMass all scoring commits.

The weekly National Recruiting Wrap column went up this past weekend at CBS Sports' Max Preps. News on Josh Selby setting visits, Terrence Jones and Doron Lamb (pictured) cutting their lists, and a pair of commitments this past week in California and Tennessee.


January 21, 2010
For the debut of the National Recruiting Wrap weekly column at CBS Sports' MaxPreps,
we begin 2010 by releasing our list of the nation's Top Available Prospects, being headlined by Brandon Knight.

Be sure to check out MaxPreps' high school basketball coverage as well. Jason Hickman's weekly Hoop Notes always has interesting stories and their photo section is beyond anyone elses. We're hoping to make a big splash in 2010 covering the country for the home of the Final Four and the home of High School sports - CBS Sports and MaxPreps.

Thanks for the support.
