Fraser said friends Allan Ray and Curtis Sumpter were also on hand this past weekend. Sumpter also plays with Fraser for the Long Island Panthers.
"What was good about the trip was there was nothing planned," Fraser said. "We just hung out. There were no planned parties. This was good. I just got a chance to talk to the players alot."
Fraser (pictured right) said right now that Villanova leads. "They are up a notch," Fraser said. "It was a very good trip. I really got along great with the players whether they were freshmen or seniors."
Fraser also said his mom was impressed. "It took about three hours by car to get down there," Fraser said. "But that was because of traffic. And my mom had a great time visiting there too."
Fraser said it was important that his friends, Ray and Sumpter, were already committed to Villanova. But this would not be the deciding factor. "It's always good to have people you know there," Fraser said. "But I can go away to a place where I don't know anybody. That's no problem."
Fraser said he is still seriously considering North Carolina, Louisville, and St. John's. He plans on visiting Louisville this upcoming weekend and St. John's the weekend of November 10th.
Fraser said North Carolina still has a shot. "If they didn't have a shot, I would have told them," Fraser said. "I am still seriously considering them. I have not ruled them out."
He previously told us that his trip to North Carolina went well.
