Stew wants Brandon Davies

Stew Morrill and many others are apparently very interested in a home state recruit who may or may not have his academics in order:

Basketball: Provo coach talks about Davies' recruitment

Had a nice chat this morning with an old friend of mine -- Provo basketball coach Craig Drury -- about Brandon Davies, the 6-foot-9 senior who will play for the legendary coach this winter before moving on to what should be an outstanding college basketball career.

I've been getting a lot of reports about the recruitment of Davies, some conflicting with each other, and I figured the coach with the most state titles in Utah prep basketball history would give it to me straight. Over the years, Drury has been one of the most frank, honest coaches I have covered.

"He's good," Drury said. "He barely turned 17, so he's still going to grow a few more inches. He's got a 7-foot-4 wing span, he runs well and he's an adequate shooter for a 6-9 kid....."

Go here for the remainder, including the mention of Stew Morrill.
