INDIANAPOLIS - Four months removed from a stressful 22-13 season, University of Kentucky head coach Tubby Smith joined hundreds of other college basketball coaches searching for and evaluating players who might one day help their teams.
Smith's latest stop on the recruiting trail landed him at the Nike All-America Camp being held at IUPUI and the National Institute for Fitness and Sport on Friday afternoon.
"I'm just like every coach here, thinking that we can find somebody and we certainly have a need, just like everybody around the country," Smith said. "So we've got to do our homework there and get a good frontcourt."
After this season, the Wildcats will lose 6-foot-6 Bobby Perry, 6-7 Sheray Thomas and 7-0 Lukasz Obrzut, all seniors.
