Dominic Cheek's coaches for the Playaz Basketball Club recently told Adam Zagoria that it would be at least until September before he even came up with announcing his preliminary college list.
Cheek, standing at 6'5", is the No. 4 shooting guard in the Class of 2009 according to Rivals.com. He recently told reporters in Connecticut during his visit to elite camp that UConn, Villanova, Tennessee, Wake Forest and Kansas will make the list and that he’s planning an official visit to UConn.
According to Adam, Memphis is also very interested. Cheek recently told Indiana's primary Scout.com writer with regard to an official visit to Indiana that he's "going to make it happen".
“I’m really, really thinking about them now,” Cheek said. “They’re definitely going to be on my list when I make my list.”
Scout Marc Maggard of RoundballRecruiting.com recently said on Nashville's affiliate of ESPN radio, 106.7 The Fan, that he did not feel like Tennessee was a real contender in the race for Cheek's services. In speaking with UConn's staff after Cheek's visit to elite camp, Marc said that the staff did not seem to think Tennessee was one of the teams to fear.
*EDIT
Adam Zagoria caught up with Cheek today and he said he has plans to visit both Indiana and Memphis. He said he is considering, “Memphis, Kansas, UConn, Seton Hall, Rutgers, Villanova, Wake Forest and Tennessee...That’s probably the list I’m planning on cutting down soon,” Cheek said.
“I’m definitely going to visit those two schools (Indiana and Memphis),” he said. “I’ve been to Seton Hall, I’ve been to Wake Forest and Villanova (and Rutgers).”
