"The word is that UCLA, Kentucky, Oregon and Providence are the schools best positioned to receive an official visit.

He won't be able to take those visits, however, until he's re-classified as a 2012 recruit, which is also expected shortly.

If he does, then, re-classify from the 2013 to the 2012 class, he'll have a short window of opportunity to take official visits before he's required to return to Colombia for workouts with his national team this summer.

"Of interest to those rooting for Trocha to land in Oregon, Trocha's been playing high school ball in Houston, Texas. Yes, on the same circuit as 2012 Duck signee Daymean Dotson."

Rivals considers him a 4 star prospect.

"After originally being touted as a Perry Jones-type player, Trocha is now being scouted as a Nicolas Batum-type small forward. He has a 7-foot-5 wingspan and good agility, and is considering LSU, Texas A&M, Kentucky, UCLA, Oregon, Ohio State and Providence."

Sounds like this kid would be re-classifying from the 2013 class, so he is really young, but those are some intriguing comparisons... Getting him away from the other programs on the list will likely take some effort.

He's waiting for his SAT scores to come back to see if he'll be eligible to reclassify. Would obviously be a huge pickup.
