The Gwinnett Daily Post provides an update on Adam Demuyakor, one of five Harvard basketball players cut last season by Tommy Amaker just before the commence of fall practices. Amaker's decision drew criticism and made national headlines, including in the New York Times.

Several Columbia players will play on a college travel squad this summer in the Bahamas including new Lions addition, Max Craig, a 7'0" transfer from Loyola Marymount. Craig could be a potential All-Ivy League player this coming season.

Indiana Hoops is listing Tommy Eggleston, a 6'5" forward from Indianapolis, Indiana and the younger brother of Penn's Jack Eggleston as a commitment to the Quakers basketball program. Eggleston originally committed to the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee during late February 2009. It was the the only publicized Division I basketball scholarship he received, but he did have multiple NAIA scholarship offers, as well as a long list of D-I offers for football. He is the 42nd best basketball prospect in Indiana's senior class class of 2009 as ranked by Indiana Hoops. He was not ranked among the Top 50 players in Indiana by Rick Bolus as published on Hoosier Scout.

The Reno Gazette-Journal is reporting that Nevada Wolfpack received a verbal commitment from Serbian 6'9" forward, Marko Cukic. He reportedly drew widespread Ivy League interest coming out of Brandenton, Florida's IMG Academ.

The Detroit News notes that Christian Dawkins, a 6'1" guard at St. Mark's, a prep school in Southborough, Massachusetts is hoping to land a roster spot in the Ivy League.
