Hoops Recruiting - Wednesday a big day.

Well, we heard reports that Javaris Crittenton had eliminated Wake Forest from consideration and was down to GT / Florida. We also heard that it may have actually been Wake that dropped him from consideration because they received a commit from PG I.Smith......... We also heard reports that he would likely announce something this week during Adidas summer camp. Now Scout.com has confirmed that he will announce on Wednesday at 4:30pm at a small press conference. Could this be the Jacket's first verbal commitment from the class of 2006. All signs point to yes, but anyone remember the last local recruit that seemed like a slam dunk? A certain Randolph Morris?....................... Having said all that, I cannot see a strong scenario where he picks Florida. Folks - he hasn't even visited that campus from reports I hear. In addition, Florida is not as sweet on Javaris as a Point Guard, and we all know by now that GTech wants a PG all the way.
