Oak Hill’s Steve Smith Thinks Kentucky Still has a Chance at Harry Giles

Adam Zagoria spoke with legendary Oak Hill Academy basketball coach Steve Smith about his superstar recruit Harry Giles’ recruitment and he thinks Duke isn’t the only school with a chance to land him.

Still, Smith said Giles enjoyed his recent visits to Kansas for “Late Night in the Phog” and Kentucky for “Big Blue Madness.”

“I think they [Kentucky] have a chance,” Smith said. “I know everybody thinks he’s going to Duke and they may be the frontrunners still, I’m not sure. He loved his visits to Kentucky and Kansas. I think Kansas opened his eyes a little bit to other programs besides Duke because I think in his mind Duke was the favorite but then he goes to Kansas and he really liked the visit.
