All I know is that I would schedule 1 of my recruiting trips to The University of Hawaii!

Beside, I don't any schools that would recruit a 5' 4" power forward...

1)Iowa State (of course)
2)Florida (as long as Billy Donovan Stays + warm weather)
3)Ohio State (Matta is getting stud recruits)
4)North Carolina (Been a fan since James Worthy & Jordan)
5)Louisville (could be fun playing for Pitino)

I'd have to wait on Arizona to see how long Lute stays and also on Kentucky to see who's the new coach...

Speaking of Hawaii; why aren't their athletic programs dominating? Who wouldn't want to go to school there!?

Depends on BBall or Football. For BBall I would include Tennessee becase of Coach Pearl (have you seen his interviews? He looks like he would be fun to play for.) Also, UNC because of history and wherever Billy Donovon goes because a championship is likely to follow. For football I would love to play for Pete Carroll, not USC but again he looks like a good players coach. Then Michigan because how cool would it be to play in front of 110,000 people. But obviously ISU would win my recruiting battle in the end.

Those road trips are long. As somebody who really doesn't like to travel much, if you had three road games in a row, it would be a pretty crappy week. Like this:

02/14at Utah StL 58-5002/17at L Beach StW 93-7802/24at San Jose StW 67-55

That's a rough ten days.

depends on the reason....

for a classy coach and warm winter... Arizona

for a great town and climate... San Diego St.

playing for a great coach and hottie co-ed's... Florida

playing in a legendary arena, traditional program, or in front of consistently crazy fans (or gym as Tinsley would say)... (tie) KU, North Carolina, Kentucky, Indiana (sorry can't ever say Duke)

play at a place where no one cares if the team sucks- Nebraska, Penn State, Colorado (tie again)

mascot name alone- Oregon State

Arizona is always a place that I wanted to check out. If I was a recruit I would have at least made a visit or two there.

this is easy:
1. Iowa State
2. USC (Floyd and Southern Cali -- no weather is better)
3. Arizona (i love Tucson and Jason Gardner)
4. Kansas (even though I dislike them, it would be sweet to play in the Phog)
5. Marquette (as long as Crean is there)

Okay, this begs the question:

What are your bottom 5 schools?
