Despite forgoing the spring travel circuit, Roscoe Smith is one of the hottest recruits in the class of 2010. Two Big East powers are the latest programs to offer the 6-foot-7, 190-pound forward from Baltimore (Md.) Walbrook High School.

"Connecticut has now offered, and Louisville just called this morning to offer Roscoe," said Smith's father Brian Thompson.

Smith already has offers from Florida State, Georgetown, Kansas, Maryland, Texas and Texas A&M. Duke and North Carolina have been expressing strong interest, and Florida and Memphis are the latest schools to begin their recruitment of Smith.
