Interesting - but not surprising - that the top recruit involved (Brian Bowen) ended up at Louisville, even though they hadn't really even been involved in his recruiting until just prior to his commitment. A quote from Pitino, courtesy of SOV on the HC site:

" Rick Pitino said: "We got lucky on this one. I had an AAU director call me and ask me if I'd be interested in a player (Bowen). I saw him against another great player from Indiana. I said, 'Yeah, I'd be really interested.' They had to come in unofficially, pay for their hotel, pay for their meals. We spent zero dollars recruiting a five-star athlete who I loved when I say him play. In my 40 years of coaching, this is the luckiest I've been." "
