Chicago Curie big man Cliff Alexander will cut his list from four to “three final schools” before his Nov. 15 announcement on ESPNU, according to Taylor Rooks of Fox Sports, who spoke with Alexander Monday.
Reports surfaced Monday that the 6-foot-9 Alexander would choose between local schools DePaul and Illinois — and had thus cut Kansas and Memphis — but Rooks quoted Alexander as saying those reports were “not true.”
“No, not at all. They don’t know what they’re talking about,” Latillia Alexander, Cliff’s mom, told SNY.tv Monday
Alexander recently cut Michigan State and then Tweeted he is considering Illinois, DePaul, Kansas and Memphis in “no order.”
As first reported by SNY.tv, Alexander will announce Nov. 15 on ESPNU.
He took his last official to Illinois and enjoyed it. He has also visited DePaul, Kansas and Memphis officially.
Coaches from Illinois and Memphis visited Alexander last week, and his mother recently said Kansas may still come in.
