Marquis Teague, one of the highest rated players in the high school class of 2011, considered attending Kentucky’s Big Blue Madness next weekend.
But because UK will stage its Madness on Friday, a day his father must work, Teague will not make it.
“It would be very difficult to me to get him there,” said the player’s father, Shawn Teague. “We were talking about doing it. But it doesn’t work out.”
Teague, whose older brother Jeff starred at Wake Forest, is generally rated among the top five players in the high school junior class. He plays for Pike High in Indianapolis.
He has narrowed his list to Indiana, Purdue, Ohio State, Cincinnati, Louisville, Wake Forest and Kentucky.
His father, who played for Rick Pitino at Boston U, said Marquis hoped to attend games to watch those teams play this coming season before making a decision.
Among the prospects expected to attend UK’s Big Blue Madness is Quincy Miller, according to the recruiting service Rivals.com. Miller is a 6-7 forward from Winston-Salem, N.C.
