Reports: Christian Sanders picks Stanford

A prime Maryland shooting guard target is apparently off the board.

According to multiple media reports, Christian Sanders committed to Stanford on Friday.

A three-star prospect from St. Thomas High in Houston, Sanders was recruited by Mark Turgeon at Texas A&M, and the pursuit continued at Maryland. Sanders, a teammate of Terps pledge Shaquille Cleare on the Houston Defenders, also had offers from Colorado, Oklahoma State and Vanderbilt, among others.

Another prospect with Terps interest also made his decision Friday night. Elijah Macon, a four-star power forward from Columbus, Ohio, committed to West Virginia.

Dropping like flies - any thoughts on our next 'get' (Mitchell, Graham et al)??

Don I: Good question, but hard to say since neither of those guys has taken an official visit to CP yet. -- Matt

Now what? Torian Graham? Another guy we haven't talked about?

Josh: I would imagine that Graham has become a much more important target now. -- Matt
