Considered a three-star prospect by Rivals.com, Kuric holds offers to Louisville, Michigan, Penn State, Bradley, Butler, Southern Illinois and a slew of other schools. Indiana State is a longshot for Kuric's services.

It's a good thing to just be mentioned with the likes of Louisville and Michigan alouth I'm hearing he's leaning towards SIU.

Evansville Memorial's Kyle Kuric is a 6-foot-5 shooting guard who had an impressive summer traveling with the Evansville Basketball Club. Kuric took a few moments to answer a handful of questions from Matt Denison earlier today.

I know that Saint Louis fans would really like to get Kuric into the fold after they feel they lost Roth to IU. I can't see Kyle going too far from home.

There is also some very good information on Kuric available on HoosierHoopsReport.com. It does require registration.

I hear that Kuric has narrowed his list to five schools to SIU, Saint Louis University, the University of Louisville and the University of Michigan. Doesn't appear ISU is in the running anymore. The only confirmation is a report from an SIU website (http://media.www.siude.com/media/storage/paper1096/news/2007/09/05/MBasketball/Potential.Siu.Recruit.Visits-2949445.shtml).

That goes with what I'm hearing on him leaning towards SIU. I hear he loves Louisville but with the talent they got he might not see alot of playing time soon.

Supposedly Louisville has offered him a preferred walk-on (which i think is code for walk on this year and if you're worht keeping around you'll get a scholly down the road). He visits SLU last, if that leads you to draw any conclusions.

[Jason Svoboda]

That's too bad. In that case, I'd like to see him go anywhere but the MVC. Kid is going to be a dynamite shooter in college.

[Jason Svoboda]

Looks like he now has a full offer from Louisville, no more walk-on nonsense.

[xfactor9600]

I'd think that offer would be tough to beat. I guess it all depends on what Kuric sees himself doing in college?

However, Kuric was in Michigan this weekend for the ND-UM game on his official for the Wolverines.

[Jason Svoboda]

Louisville, Michigan, Southern Illinois, and St. Louis (alphabetically just in case you were trying to find meaning in the list). That's the final four. Not much news there. What has changed? According to Kuric not much of late, but really some things have changed.
