The list of schools interested in Adrian Joseph, considered one of the better wing players from the 2004 class, is impressive. Joseph, who is an athletic small forward with a perimeter touch, has to be one of the more talented offensive players available to high major programs.

Joseph, competing in the Three Stripes tournament in Neptune, New Jersey this weekend, had the eyes of several programs, including Virginia, Penn State, East Carolina, Michigan, Vanderbilt, Georgia, Kansas, Villanova, and Notre Dame on him yesterday. He drained three three-pointers and seemed active with his dribble.

"I am open," Joseph said. "I have a lot of schools I am interested in -- Virginia, Maryland, Penn State, Villanova, and Notre Dame."

Joseph, the graceful 6-foot-7 forward who played this past season at Bergen Catholic High School in New Jersey, did not play a full camp at ABCD last week because of an injury. He played in the final session and is currently competing with the New York Elite AAU program.

Joseph, who has already taken an unofficial visit to Villanova, is a top 100 type of player because he is so active offensively. Joseph arrived at Bergen Catholic last fall from Trinidad.
