Norman has a message for Marquette fans.

"Be ready for a culture change. We are going to be doing big things. It's going to be a whole different vibe. It's not going to be Milwaukee and the Bucks, it's going to be Milwaukee and Marquette."

[Boone]

topper to an exciting class! Very well done, Shaka!

[Herman Cain]

Tremendous win for MU. Tre is going to be a top tier guard in the Big East.  Excellent day for Shaka and the MU Community.

Alright! Been a while since we had a  Bay stater. Can't remember who was the last one.

Probably Zack McCall?

I love versatile, athletic guards with size.

Welcome to MU!

And sounds like he has that junkyard dog mentality in his own words. Love it.

[MU82]

I guess we're now The Harvard of the Midwest!

Another nice get for Shaka. Congrats!

[Shooter McGavin]

Great news!  Sounds like Shaka and the ACs really built a great relationship with this fast riser. 

[Dr. Blackheart]

Thanks, Wizard Boy

I prefer the Wizard of West Town for his moniker

MU Overload says that Norman is only the third player from MA that we have ever landed. The other two are Zack McCall and Vic Lazzaretti (2 year player in the 80s who transferred to Loyola Marymount)

Awesome get for Shaka and a great day for MU basketball.  Tre's quotes in the linked article are GOLD.  He sounds like an absolute winner, who will continue to ascend.  I really like this recruiting class - Think all 3 of these guys are on the rise, and have the athleticism needed to excel in high major basketball.

I don't have the hometowns of all players entered yet so there may be others that just haven't been entered yet.

I'm glad someone uses that function though!

Shaka is building a very strong foundation. The Wizard of Scoop, who is the gold standard, preached culture and foundation for past year and I love what Shaka is building. Always great to land a target recruit.

By the way, Vic Laz was from Nebraska if memory serves me. I believe he was teammate of Kerry Trotter.

Welcome Tre!

Lazar and Todd graduated from nD Prep in Fitchburg MA. That's all I can remember.

Yeah, I'm not sure Milwaukee's gonna forget about Giannis to cheer on Tre, but I do love his attitude!

[TedBaxter]

Looks like the Lazzaretti family moved to Massachusetts while Vic was at Creighton Prep, so Andover was the family address while he went to Marquette kind of like Pat Foley being from Birmingham, MI.

Two NY natives who played at prep schools in Massachusetts were Larry McNeill and Roney Eford.
