Kyle Cain, 2010
May 10, 2010 9:17 AM
Cain, a 6-7 power forward with a knack for rebounding and finishing around the basket, spent this past season polishing his skills and adding weight and strength at New Hampton Prep School in New Hampshire. Now he's being courted by a host of schools, including Gonzaga, Alabama and West Virginia. If you believe internet reports, Kentucky has inquired, so says CBSsportsline.
Now the University of Illinois is getting heavily involved with Cain, who may be just what the doctor ordered for a program looking for a presence and some toughness and rebounding. As talented as Illinois is heading into next season -- with a blend of experience, incoming talent and skill -- a strong, tough rebounder would fill a void for coach Bruce Weber. Assistant coach Jerrance Howard has gone to work on Cain in a short period of time.
