I’m trying to hook you up with some footage of Deniz Kilicli, who committed to WVU’s 2009 basketball recruiting class over the weekend, but I’m having no luck. Apparently he’s in this clip, but I’m not sure. If you know of any, pass it along please.

I will say that this appears to be a significant deal for Huggins.

“He’s a definite NBA Player, no question about it,” Fulford said. “If he had been here all summer for the AAU season, he’d be a top 10, top 15 in the country kid. Some sites and some places have him rated as a three-star (prospect). He’s a five-star, hands down. He’s a top two big man in the country. They didn’t get an average player.”   

Yes, that’s his coach, so consider the source, but know that one “person” replied to an e-mail to me seeking insight as said Kilicli will have interest from the NBA and European leagues very soon and perhaps sooner than we think.
