Arizona basketball: Kyle Fogg talks UA career, Pencils of Promise, and appreciation for Wildcat fans

Kyle Fogg has been on an amazing journey from un-recruited prospect to becoming one of the best basketball players in the world.

Kyle Fogg completed his senior season at Brea Olinda High School in 2008 without a D1 offer.

2008 was also a particularly trying year for Arizona Wildcats basketball recruiting.

Brandon Jennings went to Europe, highly-regarded forward Emmanuel Negedu asked to be released from his LOI, and questions surrounding Lute Olson’s absence in 2007 were largely unanswered.

Olson and assistant coach Mike Dunlap were still working hard through the summer to find talent.
