Isn't Cook primarily listed as a SG? Banks would be a Junior and Evans a Soph by that time. I would think it would be tough to lure Cook in. I would love to have him though. From everything I've read he seems like an incredible talent.

Insiders.com is reporting that
Cook will be at Midnight Madness
this year. I think Huggins will
wrap up this years recruiting class
very soon and start recruiting the
2006 class ASAP. With Legree, Martin,
Kennedy, & Huggins we have one of the
best staff's in college basketball.

Brent,
The Arrowhead Pond game you are thinking of was the 2001 Sweet 16 game
against Stanford.
