2014 Dwayne Morgan SF

2014 Dwayne Morgan interest rises, has UNLV, Seton Hall, NC State, USF offers

Right now, Dwayne Morgan is 6-7. That makes him about the same height as his mother, and he’s only a sophomore in high school.

The 2014 forward from Baltimore City College High School (Md.) has college coaches taking notice, not only because of the skills he has now, but because, down the line, he could end up being close to seven feet tall.

He currently holds offers from UNLV, Seton Hall, South Florida, and NC State, and says he is drawing interest from schools that include Texas, Maryland, and Syracuse.

“I want a team that lets me play,†Morgan told NBCSports.com this past weekend about his college desires. “Sometimes I play in and out.â€

He was impressive over the weekend, showing his length in blocking shots defensively and getting to the rim offensively. He is still raw, but considering how much he can grow and how high his ceiling is, his stock should continue to rise.

As he matures on the court and understands the full breadth of his talent, the high-major offers will keep coming.

“Sometimes I get really nervous because I want to play good. I’m comfortable with it, it’s just I get so excited that I rush a little bit,†he said. “I think it’s a positive now, but as time progresses, it’ll get better.â€

Morgan says, as far as his recruitment, he is not bound to any geographical area, and mentioned what he is looking for in a coach and program.

“I want a coach that will tell me the truth, a guy who will tell me if I played good or played bad,†said Morgan. “Pretty much, a hard-nosed guy because that’s how my AAU coach is.â€

That is one big mother.

Yeah that stood out to me too. Morgan's daddy was a lucky man. Of course Dwayne will probably end up being 6-10 or taller before he is through growing

I thought you were against us going after players from Maryland.

[charsibb]

He's against us going after players from Maryland and NOT getting them, LOL

I thought you were against us going after players from Maryland.

My stance on where USF should spend most of their recruiting budget is well documented. However if they are hard after a guy in Maryland or any other place I will post it on the bullspen since this is what I do best on here.

Duly noted. I'm reminded of the story about the blind squirrel. Hopefully it applies.

Didn't we recently offer scholarships to the starting 5 from one of the AAU teams from Md?

I don't think Stan is shying away anytime soon.
