ELLIOT CADEAU TALKS TOP SUITORS
Louisville: “(The visit) was great, just talking to Kenny Payne, he’s a really smart coach and knows a lot about basketball. That was probably the best part.”
Syracuse: “I talk to their coaches a lot. They’ve been recruiting me for like a year and a half, so we just talk a lot.”
North Carolina: “We talk a lot, too. Me and coach Hubert Davis have a great relationship, and we’re continuing to build that.”
Texas Tech: “Our relationship is really good. I’ve known coach Mark Adams for like a year and a half now. They’ve been recruiting me for almost two years.”
Texas: “They’re a new school that’s recruiting me, but they’ve come up to our school a couple of times and they’re putting in a lot of effort.”
*** Due to technical difficulties, the Kansas portion of the interview was cut off.
