Rice (NY) power forward Kadeem Jack '10 took his official visit to the University of Miami, and enjoyed his time in Coral Gables.

“It was a fun experience, it was great” said Jack, who was hosted by UM freshman guard Durand Scott, who he attended high school with. “We took a tour of the campus, I saw the president, and I had a chance to meet the team, a lot of the players. I saw them work out, spent some time with the coach, and spent some time with Durand, so it was fun.”

Jack and Scott have a good relationship, but due to the distance, this was their first time spending time together in nearly four months.

“We spent a little bit of time around Christmas I think because he came back on break," Jack said. “It was great that I have somebody over there that I knew so it was kind of fun."

While his relationship with Miami’s star player in obviously important, Jack’s discussion with the coaches may well have a major impact on his decision.
