Creamer impressed by Cavs

It's no secret that wide receiver is a position of need for Al Groh and Virginia in this recruiting class. This weekend the Cavs hosted one of the top wideouts in Illinois, but was it enough to push them to the top of his list?

Wide receiver Bryant Creamer is a big target at 6-foot-3 and 190 pounds, and with a 40-yard dash time of 4.5 seconds he has the speed and athleticism to separate himself from corners. What did he think of Charlottesville?

"I had a nice time down there," said Creamer. "They made it real clear that they need playmakers and they need them right away. A lot of times you hear coaches tell you that you can come in and start right away, but it wasn't like that. They told me I would have to work and earn whatever I got, but I know they were serious when they said they needed receivers. I think it would be a good situation for me."

The Chicago (Il.) Simeon athlete didn't say the Cavs were his leader, but Virginia will likely be one of the schools he chooses from when it comes time to make a decision. Who are the others?

"Other than Virginia I'm looking at Wisconsin, Boston College, Notre Dame and Illinois, and I've visited all five of those schools. To be completely honest I've enjoyed every visit I've been on, and I can't really say that one was better than another. The situation with Illinois is a little different since they're so close to home, but that won't necessarily be the deciding factor."

Creamer is rated the No. 59 wide receiver in the nation and is a 3-star prospect.
