He was nice enough to return my call from the airport while he was waiting for his flight back to Texas ... It was a really good, really thoughtful interview that'll be posted when we can get it up, but here's the main points.
• The Texas-Arlington transfer spoke very highly of his Purdue visit, on which he was hosted by Rapheal Davis and spent considerable time with Jon Octeus, who is obviously really trying to help here.
• Hill will visit Illinois in two weeks, then decide. DePaul, Buffalo and Drake are among those who've also recruited him. He has visited Drake. Purdue and Illinois, he said, have offered.
• The sole reason, he said, he in transferring is to try to play in an NCAA Tournament. This has nothing to do with him personally, he said.
• Asked what type of guard he is, he talked first and most convincingly about defense.
Like I said, more to come ...
