Poole checking out IU

Stacey Poole has been on the rise this spring and summer, making a huge splash at the NBA Players Association Top 100 Camp.

The 6-foot-5, 190-pound shooting guard from Jacksonville (Fla.) has become a hot commodity on the recruiting scene and Indiana University is right in the mix.

The son of former Florida player Stacey Poole Sr., the younger Poole said IU, Oklahoma, Xavier, Clemson, South Carolina and Florida are among the schools in the mix.

"I know Indiana is a historic school," Poole Jr. said. "It's a basketball school and nothing but basketball. It's a great place and I want to go on a visit sometime. Coach (Tom) Crean is a real good guy and I want to see what Indiana is all about."

When asked to describe himself, Poole said he was "freakishly athletic" and a "very versatile guy."
