Florida's in mix to land Thomas
St. Benedict's star waiting to sign
Wednesday, April 12, 2006
The recruiting battle between Rutgers and Duke for the services of St. Benedict's Prep's Lance Thomas, who has been labeled as the nation's top uncommitted senior since November, apparently has at least one more contestant.
"Florida is in the picture," a person familiar with the recruiting process revealed to The Star-Ledger last night.
Florida may have all five starters return next season from the team that claimed the school's first NCAA championship last week and had been among Thomas' final four choices.
The person, who asked not to be identified in order to maintain Thomas' privacy, added that the 6-7 forward, a two-time Star-Ledger Prep Player of the Year at the Newark school, may consider other options as well while he likely wouldn't decide before this weekend. The late signing period for players to sign national letters of intent begins today and runs until May 17.
In another St. Benedict's update that can't be good news for Rutgers, the same person indicated point guard Eugene Harvey, who has been interested in reuniting with Thomas at Rutgers, is considering making an official visit to Cincinnati. Harvey, named to The Star-Ledger's All-Prep Team, already has visited Rutgers and Southern California.
