The universities of Kentucky and Louisville and home-state California have emerged as the three finalists in the recruitment of elite center Marcus Lee. Lee's brother, Bryan, confirmed on Tuesday night that his brother has trimmed his list from seven to three. The news was first reported by Jason McCleary of LeftCoastRecruiting.com. Lee, a 6-foot-9 player for Deer Valley High School in Antioch, Calif., made an official visit to U of L over the weekend that went well. “He thought the school looked amazing,” Bryan Lee wrote in a text message. Marcus Lee is scheduled to visit UK on Oct. 12 for Big Blue Madness and will have the Wildcats' staff in for a home visit on Sunday, his brother said.
