Courier-Journal: Jody Demling:
Lexington Catholic High School sophomore Jaylen Beckham has long been considered the state's top college prospect in the Class of 2012.
Now, the colleges appear to agree.
The 6-foot, 165-pound sophomore already has two offers and is getting interested from a lot of other big-time schools as he heads into the final stages of his sophomore season.
"It's a lot of pressure, but I just want to keep playing and trying to get better," Beckham said.
DePaul and Washington have both offered scholarships, while Oklahoma State, Indiana, Alabama, Cincinnati, Xavier, Ohio State and Florida have all shown interest.
Kentucky is watching and has shown a bit of interest, while Louisville assistant coach Walter McCarty was recently in to watch Beckham, according to LexCath coach Brandon Salsman.
"I am just trying to get better," said Beckham, noting he's not thinking a lot about a college decision. "I need to work on my assist-to-turnover ration and a consistent jump shot."
