Class Of 2011 Chicago De La Salle Star Mike Shaw Of The Mac Irvin Fire Is Actively Entrenched In The Recruiting Visit Process As He Nears A Decision Cavan Walsh September 15, 2010 Email Questions/Comments To brian@chicagohoops.com Class of 2011 Chicago De La Salle star Mike Shaw of the Mac Irvin Fire has narrowed down his school list, and is going through the visit process as he nears a decision. Mike Irvin, who runs the Mac Irvin Fire travel team program, took some time to talk about Shaw, and where exactly he is in his recruitment. Irvin noted that Shaw had a very good official visit to DePaul. “I mean Mike really enjoyed the visit to DePaul. He had a chance to meet with the president, and the whole DePaul family. Overall, he thought the visit went very well. Right now he is enjoying the process and just moving along with everything in an orderly fashion,” said Irvin. Irvin spoke highly of both Bob Huggins and Buzz Williams, and their programs. "You know in West Virginia you have a Hall of Fame coach in Bob Huggins. He’s been doing this for a lot of years and he has won everywhere. Last year they went to the Final Four and have one of the top programs in the Big East". "In Marquette you have Buzz Williams, one of the up and coming great coaches in the game. With Buzz, he gets the most out of his players, and was the same energetic Buzz as he is on the phone. Buzz believes in himself and what he has to offer at Marquette, and that is what he basically relayed on the in-home visit.” Irvin also took a moment to talk about Shaw's upcoming visit with Illinois. “We are going to take a look at Illinois and Bruce Weber, and hear what they have to offer. They have a lot of Mike’s former Fire teammates down at Illinois, but both Marquette and DePaul do as well in Reggie Smith and Jamie Crockett. We just want to get a better feel at Illinois and what his role would be down there.” |
