At Jacksonville, The Rock boys basketball team won its first state title in school history with a 64-56 victory over Arlington Country Day on Saturday in the Sunshine Independent Athletic Association Tournament finals.
Junior guard Mitchell Wilbekin was named SIAA Tournament MVP and led all scorers with 15 points, fueled by 10-of-13 shooting from the free-throw line.
Wilbekin was one of four scorers to reach double figures for the Lions, including Christian Benzon (11), Glenn Feidanga (10), Pape Diatta (10) and Joel Embiid (10).
Embiid, a Kansas signee, also hauled in a team-high 14 rebounds.
The Rock, which finished third in last year's tournament, finishes with a 33-4 record.

He sounds like a solid player, as well as a good kid.

The Rock left the FHSAA so they could recruit and become a basketball factory...not a level playing field...and GHS was very good this season, mase State Final 4 and returns most everyoen next season....

I don't think either of those guys will have any effect on whether or not we offer M. Wilbekin. We'll need a wing and a PG in 2014.

I haven't seen Lee. Is he very good at creating off the dribble ? Is he very athletic ?

Lee could play pg in a pinch. Have you seen him in person bullis?? Im sure we take wilbekin if we miss on a top guy but theres a reason richard hasa scholly and mitchell doesnt... not trying to downgrade mitchell, I love the wilbekins but I think lee is a very good player. He plays with a tonof swagand would be a fun gator... Swag!!

Pretty sure Lee has no UF offer, he can claim on all he wants, but he cannot commit to UF at this time, same as Mitchell....I don't doubt he will land at a high major school, just don't see it being UF....

so bullis besides allen, who else do we have a great shot at landing? seems like we are not on too many top 50 kids in 2014?
