Jahlil Okafor trims list to eight
Posted May 29, 2013
Jahlil Okafor hasn't been able to play much this spring due to an ankle sprain, but he hasn't lost his grasp on the No. 1 spot in the country. The Whitney Young (Ill.) big man is still atop the 247 Composite rankings for the class of 2014, and it doesn't look like he's going to move down anytime soon. The 6-foot-10 center is progressing in his recruitment, too, as he tweeted his final list of eight schools: "In no particular order: My final 8 Arizona, Baylor, Duke, Illinois, Kentucky, Kansas, Michigan state, Ohio state"
