Title: Quick! Who does this remind you of?
Post by: michigancat on October 05, 2007, 08:51:42 AM: Quote
• Bill Self went on the longest recruiting trip of his basketball career earlier this week: Close to 5,000 miles.

Self visited an IMG Academy training facility in Spain to watch the practice of some “recruitable athletes.”

“I can say it was a long trip and long way to travel to be there one day,” Self said. “I do think it’s part of the job in recruiting to go different places when trying to sign guys.”

Self would not name names of any possible ku prospects in Spain, only confirming he made the trip.

Highly regarded NBA prospects in Spain include Ricky Rubio, a 6-4 point guard, who is 17 years old and Victor Claver, 6-10, 235 pounds, who is 18.

He also should make sure he check out all the volleyball players while he is at it.
