Recruiting - Hoops - Andrew Bynum

Mention of this Center prospect - link here.

Highly sought-after recruit Andrew Bynum began an official visit Friday, attending practice with his mother and brother Corey. It's the second trip to UConn for Bynum who took an unofficial visit to Storrs in late August. A 7-foot, 280-pound center out of St. Joseph's in Metuchen, N.J., he's also interested in North Carolina, Georgia and Georgia Tech. He's made official visits to all three of those programs, including a stop at North Carolina for Midnight Madness.

Here's another mention of Bynum:
UConn's top recruiting target, 6-11 center Andrew Bynum (Plainsboro, N.J.) arrived on campus Friday afternoon accompanied by his mother and his brother for his official visit. He has already made visits to Georgia, Georgia Tech, and last weekend to North Carolina for "Late Night with Roy," where many of the 17,000 Tar Heel fans at the Dean Smith Dome chanted Bynum's name.
The trip to UConn is supposed to be the final official visit Bynum will make and he is expected to make a decision before the November signing period. He was unavailable for comment Friday.
