Bradley is recruiting a 6'3" shooting guard, Toure Murray, from Klein Forest High School in Houston. He will be a senior, class of 2008. If that sounds familiar, it is the same high school that Bradley freshman Anthony Thompson played at. Now with Bradley's assistant coach Alvin Brooks' connections in Texas we may be seeing more recruits from this state. He plays for the Houston Select AAU team.
He already has scholarship offers from Charlotte, Oral Roberts, Tulane, Bradley, Florida Atlantic, La-Monroe, New Orleans, and North Texas. He says he top 2 currently are Charlotte and Wichita State (they haven't offered yet). He didn't score a lot for Klein Forest last year, but did average 3 assists per game. But now that their star Alonzo Edwards has graduated, he will get to see the ball a lot more this year and expect to see his scoring average rise.

Here are a couple clips from the articles--
The Murry family in Houston is used to getting Division I recruiting interest. Brothers Nile (Temple/TCU) and Yannick (Texas Southern) have just finished off their college careers and now Toure Murry is on his way to getting one started. After experiencing a growth spurt in the past year, the Klein Forest High School combo guard is up to 6-foot-3, 160-pounds and his recruitment is starting to explode as he stars for his Houston Select AAU squad.
Murry's last two tournaments have been golden. He first helped Houston Select to the NBA Blue Division title of the Great American Shootout in Denton and then was a big part of the team advancing to the finals of a tournament in Tulsa. Murry's play has drawn plenty of praise - and his recruitment has increased as a result.
