John Calipari to Meet With Alex Oriakhi

Posted Apr 5, 2012
Former UConn big man Alex Oriakhi is the hottest recruit in the nation. He has one year of eligibility remaining, a stellar academic record, and because the Huskies are currently out of the 2013 NCAA Tournament because of low APR scores, Oriakhi won't have to sit out a year as a transfer -- he can play immediately. Which is why the queue has formed, and it includes some pretty big names, from Duke and North Carolina in the ACC to Kentucky and Missouri in the SEC. (NBC Connecticut)
