Drew Crawford: It's Official

the first day of the early signing period brought NLI's from Drew Crawford and Alex Marcotullio. we followed Crawford's rise through the AAU circuit this summer, and he is currently ranked the #9 prospect in Illinois. he's a take-charge wing player whose athleticism should help this team tremendously. i haven't seen him play in person, but i'm hoping/imagining the second coming of Geno Carlisle. of course, i'm also optimistic that Drew doesn't transfer to Cal after two seasons with NU. Marcotullio is a pure shooter from Michigan who conceivably will play a role similar to Craig Moore. although by the time he gets here, Marcotullio will have more talent around him than Moore did throughout his career, so he won't be asked to do as much.
