Duke

I think they had a verbal agreement before he decided to skip college.

Pretty sure he had it narrowed down to Duke and Michigan, with Duke being the clear favorite.

College or millions of dollars. I think I choose the millions. College will always be there. Fisher is in his 15th year and he is 36. Kobe in his 15th year is 32. So that is the real difference.

Kobe also has 4 years of extra NBA mileage where as Fisher does not.

DUKE...

Believe it or not Coach John Calipari (UK) was long time follower of Kobe. Cal was with the Nets at the time but he entertained the idea that he could land Kobe. He was on Coach Cals radar for a longtime. Like now as was back then whenever Cal paid to much attention to a player other coaches and scouts were soon to follow.

He was routinely hounded by Duke, North Carolina, Villanova and Michigan. Simply because he indicated that these were his faves.

It's always been Duke.


I remember Kobe once said the only Coach he had his ear open to during his
senior year in high school was Coach K.
