What I find very encouraging is that Marlon came without an offer, but left with one. Obviously Mac and the staff saw something they really liked while he was here. I say this because Isaiah Moss visited a few weeks ago without an offer and left without an offer. Marlon proved he was a Big East player. Perhaps he scrimmaged with the team and impressed so much that Mac felt that he had to offer before he got to Xavier or Wichita. Also, Marlon had to show good character. I can't see Mac offering without knowing whether or not Marlon would fit in with the rest of the team.
I too am positive that he will commit to us today for our second member of the 2015 class.
