amazing the spell Calipari seems to have over these recruits....they have these kids in a trance - just waiting and eating out of their hands...
"Mislav Brzoja’s high school coach spoke ..about Brzoja’s visit to UK’s campus this past week.
Kentucky played host to the 6-5 shooting guard who arrived Wednesday night before leaving Thursday evening.
Though according to Brzoja’s coach the visit went well, he has still not received an official offer from the Kentucky coaching staff.
His high school coach, David Jamerson, had the following to say about the visit:
“I think (Brzoja and his host family are) hopeful and excited, and they’re just going to wait and see in the next four or five days
what direction Kentucky wants to go…They loved (Calipari). Honestly they loved everything.”
While on his visit, Brzoja worked out with some of the Kentucky players (though which players were in attendance could not be verified).
His coach admitted that the level of play in some of the drills during the workout were a test for Brzoja.
His coach seemed to feel like the visit overall was very positive, but the Kentucky coaches still have some decisions to make before offering Brzoja.
His coach did seem to believe that Kentucky might have an opening for a shooting role for Brzoja to fill on their roster."
What's odd is that this column (a premium Rivals article) that interviews Brzoja and his coach - states that Calipari watch him work out on campus..
BUT -- that is a clear NCAA violation - I hope someone calls them on this.......
"overall, he felt like he did well."
Jamerson said Calipari and UK's assistants didn't give Brzoja..any specific feedback about how he played in Lexington.
Calipari also watched Brzoja last week during an AAU tournament in Merrillville, Ind.,
"Obviously I think they like him," Jamerson said. "I think they have a lot going on, so they're really evaluating him."
While he waits to see whether UK makes an offer, Brzoja is considering offers from Bradley, where he's officially visited;
Northwestern, where he's unofficially visited; Marquette; Dayton and Providence, Jamerson said.
Jamerson said Brzoja and his host family were impressed with Calipari and enjoyed their time in Lexington.
"They loved (Calipari)," Jamerson said. "Honestly they loved everything. They thought he was amazing.
They commented on that several times, just 'Wow, what a dynamic, engaging guy.' They really enjoyed spending time with him.
Soon enough Brzoja should know whether he'll have a UK offer to consider.
"I think they're hopeful that could happen, absolutely," Jamerson said."
