Prep phenom Derrick Rose is set to choose between Memphis, Indiana and Illinois at a 7 p.m. news conference Saturday.

Rose has offered little to tip his hand as to a preference. Memphis still would seem the best bet, but what about the 11th-hour visit to Illinois last weekend and the hugs all around when Rose left? Or the decision of Rose friend and summer running mate Eric Gordon to attend Indiana?

The explosive 6-foot-3-inch Rose is rated No. 3 nationally by rivals.com and No. 6 by scout.com in the Class of '07.
