    College coaches are swarming to the USA U19 trails in Colorado Springs, Colo., this week.

    Even though it’s not a recruiting period per the NCAA, college coaches are allowed to attend.

    In addition to Kentucky coach John Calipari, who is coaching the team, Kansas coach Bill Self, North Carolina coach Roy Williams, and assistants from Duke, Louisville, UCLA, Oregon, Maryland, Miami, UConn, Georgia Tech, Tennessee and more are at the trials, per Kyle Tucker and sources.

    Of the 27 players at the trials, five are rising high school seniors: Bol Bol, Louis King, Romeo Langford, Cam Reddish and Immanuel Quickley.
