On the first day of the national signing period, David Cubillan, a SG/PG from highly regarded St. Benedict's in Newark, NJ, committed to Marquette University. Cubillan will provide much needed support in the MU backcourt -- even with the talented freshmen this season, MU does not have another PG or combo guard on the roster. After last season's struggles, Crean vowed never to be caught without enough capable guards in the program - - and now Cubillan is part of the solution to that problem.
Cubillan was a high school teammate of current MU freshman Dwight Burke last season, and plays for coach Danny Hurley.
MU is still actively recruiting seven-foot center Chas McFarland, who will decide between BC, Marquette and Wake Forest after visiting Tobacco Road this weekend. Lazar Hayward, a fast-rising senior from Buffalo, NY via Notre Dame prep in Massachusetts verbally committed to MU earlier this year and is expected to sign his LOI this week.
Welcome to MU, David!
Again, here is a look at some video on Cubillan, who looks to be a combo guard based on Internet reports and this video.
That's a nice link!
ReplyDeleteNot many recruits have video like that that is readily available (without paying!).
Now all we need is a C/PF.
