It is more common for basketball coaches to offer kids pretty early. When Gillespie was at UK, he offered a few prepubescent kids. I don't think it happens that often, partly because the kid who accepted as an eight, ninth, or even tenth grader rarely panned out or stuck with their first school. Really, it is just a dumb tactic on Kiffin's and Gillespie's parts. There is no benefit for the program. Also, even UK fans found Gillespie's offers to be unseemly. I'd like to think that USC fans would feel the same way, but I doubt it.
