No surprise here. Kentucky is probably coming in 3rd with SHU up in the Top 4. Indiana has shown the most interest from when Kyrie first suited up at Pat’s. Roshawn Mcleod has been a fixture at his games and Coach Crean has been front and center at many as well. Coach K put on the full court press recently but I feel that it’s Indiana’s to lose. They offer tradition, solid academics, and a chance to be The Man from Day #1.
