This could also work against us. If he likes his visit, he might feel the pressure to commit quickly before that spot gets filled by the other recruit. This is a situation where I would have rather received a visit before WSU instead of after.
INSIDER: Brown, Lathon set visits while Stewart never came

Obviously they want at least one additional PG. I think the question is not would we take both Lathon and Green, but how many will we take as there are several others on the radar. With Green's shooting, for example, do they like the idea of not just a back-up, but rather two PGs on the floor with at least one a good enough shooter to play off guard.

Green would make a great Jackson replacement.
Enough handle and vision to play PG in spurts but also a deadly shooter. Somebody like that is going to pair well with a ball-dominant Wiggi to (1.) run point when Wiggi is out and (2.) give Mr. Lindell a chance to play off the ball on some sets.
and (3) take it to Huggins for pressing Iowa State.
I realize with the way recruiting goes, you can't wait around necessarily, but I wonder between Lathon or Tyler Harris and Green, which two they would want the most?
Don't see anything on twitter that Brown committed to WSU on his visit this weekend so that's good.
Hope he ends up making in to Ames tomorrow, that's been easier said than done this spring.

Man, you would think they could easily land a kid like Brown. That probably officially ends the 2017 possibilities.
Any word on how the Lathon visit went?

Might not take all his visits and might commit by end of the month. Have to like our chances with NW being his only other visit so far ( Tue-Thur this week).
Lathon seemed to really enjoy his official visit and it sounds like he really likes Prohm. It would be a really good first pickup for the class. I think he is a good that if he has a healthy year could move up the rankings.

I realize Lathon was a 2018 kid but spring/summer 2017 has not been kind to Prohm and his staff.
interesting quotes by him. came down to us and Northwestern, said turning down playing in front of 14,000 in the big12 was tough, but Northwestern felt comfortable. I guess if our staff knew what would make these recruits 'more comfortable' with us, they would bottle it.
