Louisville lands Indiana recruit
A special visit from Rick Pitino sealed the deal for Lawrence North High School big man Stephan Van Treese. After the Louisville basketball coach flew to Indianapolis on Tuesday afternoon to watch Van Treese in an open gym, the 6-9 senior center spent the evening discussing his options with his parents before committing to play for the Cardinals. A two-year starter at Lawrence North, Van Treese averaged 12 points and a team-high 11 rebounds last season as a junior. Van Treese had attended Indiana University's Midnight Madness in the past, in addition to visiting a host of schools. "They never really offered," he said of IU. "It seemed like they kind of lost interest."

So, next season Indy Lawrence North will have a 6'9 Purdue verbal, 6'9 Kentucky verbal, 6'9 Louisville verbal, and a highly rated 6'7 JR. amongst a ton of other underclassman D1 recruits. Talk about a choke job if they fail to win the Indiana 4A Title like last season. Also, good karma for Louisville considering the past 2 skilled big men out of LN, Greg Oden and Eric Montross(North Carolina), played for a National Championship. Throw in Sean May from Bloomington North and Carolina's past 2 NCAA Titles where won on the backs of Indiana bred Centers.
