Subject: latest on UC's fishing for Bass

Brandon Bass was all set to wait and make his decision in the spring, but the Baton Rouge (LA) Capitol senior has trimmed his potential destinations to a manageable seven and could be ready to decide soon. However, no one school stands out.

"All of them have said they’ll give me the green light and let me do my thing, so there’s really no leader yet," Bass told PrepStars.com. "I like all of the schools and it’s even right now."

The finalists for the 6-7, 235-pound Bass are LSU, Cincinnati, UConn, Kentucky, Southern Cal, Miami and Mississippi State. Bass already has taken official visits to USC, LSU and Miami, and he has visited Mississippi State unofficially.

He can take two more official trips and will choose from UConn, Cincinnati and Kentucky.

Bass is considered more of a big forward, but he’s working on his ball-handling and perimeter shooting in order to be able to also play the wing in college. He averaged 18 points and 13 boards per game as a junior.

He said that playing time and an up-tempo game that suits his own playing style will be two primary factors when it comes down to him making a decision.

``The three schools I visited all said I’ll play anywhere from 35 to 38 minutes," Bass added. "All three play an up-tempo game and all three have nice coaches. They are all in nice cities as well."

Bass said that Mississippi State has been the most aggressive school in pursuing him and that one of the Bulldogs' future players ­ point guard Gary Ervin ­ has been trying to persuade him to go to Starkville. Bass also has pressure from LSU recruit Tack Minor to remain in Baton Rouge for college.
