How many kids can a school have officially visit. Is there a number on that? Like how many recruits can we get in to visit per year?

Don't kids have 15 official visits now? I would assume that would mean Iowa State will get one.

I believe there are three time periods in their Jr/Sr years of HS and they can take 5 within each of those time periods. I even think they can officially visit the same school up to 3 times, just not more than once within said time periods. That said, I'm not 100% sure about that and don't know the key dates

I saw an article elsewhere that said a player can OV a school a second time—after a calendar year has elapsed.

No idea if that’s accurate or not.

Any word on visits this weekend? Anyone see any recruits we didn’t know would be on campus?

This article on Jackson discussing his offer from Gamecocks and it notes that Tre has an official visit to ISU on Sept. 21st. I hadn't seen that mentioned before, though I may have just missed it.

"Jackson took an official visit to Murray State last week and will visit Florida Gulf Coast on Sept. 13-15 and Iowa State on Sept. 21. He isn’t sure when he will take his fifth visit. Jackson plans to announce his decision in November in the fall signing period."

What do you know. Prohm and staff find kid, offer, kid starts blowing up.

I like it that Frank Martin is offering. He offers tough kids that might not be heavily recruited that he see's something in. Kind of like Huggins. If Huggins offers a kid I always assume he is a tough kid that has potential.

Not sure I would consider 1 other P5 offer blowing up but I suppose it could happen as other schools strike out on their original targets or want a backup similar to ISU. This fall is reminding me of the spring of 2017.
Why? We've filled 2/3 of our scholarship openings already with 2 guys that we've wanted from the beginning.

...where we got Marial Shayok, who is going to kill it this year.

...and Michael Jacobson, who is going to give us actual post depth for the first time in something like five years or more.

...right before we hauled in maybe the best prep school class in school history.

Yes, yes, a lot has to play out before we can finally judge the impact of our four incoming freshmen right now, but they have the pedigree.

I do not think you can compare a development big man like Anderson and a high-risk, high-reward tops out at a 5* play like Leech to Beverly and Brase, when those two really were just to fill out the roster when we struck out on all of the transfer guards, Morrow, and were not willing to throw a bag with $$$s on the side at Juiston like his camp wanted.

Anderson has been a top target of ours for a very long time
