Louisville but he isn't their top target at PF and I don't think they have offered yet. Not sure if has visited other places

Pretty sure he mostly projects as a wing at the next level. Possibly a Clyburn type who can play down low some but is most naturally a 3.

Seems like some articles say he hasn't developed the offensive game (yet) to be considered a Clyburn. Thinking more of a still growing shot blocker, etc. but not sure.

The video I've seen of him doesn't look like a 3 at all. Still developing though.

Ran across a MSU update on Jaylen Johnson due to his recent offer. Not a whole lot of information but there is a 2 minute highlight vid included. Looks to me to be a willing passer and is comfortable running and dribbling in the open court. No real highlights on his outside shooting thought, I would have to agree with Acgclone that he would be a 4 in Fred's system at least from this video
Ypsilanti's Jaylen Johnson offered by Michigan State as recruiting stock continues to rise

Which like someone else said is a 3 in most other offenses.

So as we all know now, AJ Turner is visiting (says Hines) just so I'm reading his Rivals profile correctly, he's a 6'7 point guard?? Only questioning some of this because his rivals profile still has him as a 2014 recruit, whereas Hines said he reclassified to 2015. Anyone have anything about him??

I was reading on gopherhole that Calipari is planning a big push for Vaughn and Vaughn is interested in playing with another recruit that is a UK lock. Figured it would be a matter of time. At least there are so many other high profile guys we are chasing to make up for the heartache.

I see where Macura doesn't have us in his top 3. Butler, KState and Minn. KState? grrr Since I follow recruiting more now, it seems as if it will just frustrate me more when we have to play the same guys we were after. (like a Grandstaff, Uthoff, Jok, etc.) But its bound to happen, I realize that.

I marked Vaughn off my mental list quite a while back. Not based on any inside info. or anything. Just reading the tea leaves. If I'm wrong what could be better?

Is that an official top 3? From what I've seen that didn't come from him. Not that it's incorrect.
