A couple Friday notes

* Utah transfer Terrence Brown concluded his Kansas visit yesterday without committing to the Jayhawks. A source told On3's Kentucky Sports Report (KSR) that Brown's Lexington visit is "on hold." In talking with industry and sources close to the Carolina program, we do not expect that visit to happen. Those same sources say UNC continues to feel very good about its standing with Brown. * UNC is furthering its pursuit of N.C. State transfer Paul McNeil Jr. Sources close to his recruitment confirmed additional conversations between McNeil, his family, and UNC on Friday. * We don't have any news on Wake Forest transfer Juke Harris. We can confirm, however, that the Tar Heels are only looking to add one more high-level wing, per multiple sources. The commitment of Virginia Tech transfer Neoklis Avdalas provides UNC with lots of positional versatility.

What other programs are chasing McNeil hard?

Hope Brown pops soon. If McNeil seems to be the bird in hand you absolutely take him if he’s ready to commit.

Alright. It's a late morning, but I suppose my day can start now that I got some nugs from Rell.

The nugget here is "sources close to the Carolina program."

One high level wing meaning one of Juke/McNeil/Able, right?

Is McNeil considered a high level wing?

Is McNeil considered a high level wing? In other words, would his commitment take UNC out of the Juke sweepstakes?

Yes. I’m not convinced Juke is all that much better than McNeil. Harris is a poor shooter. He is a career 32% 3 point shooter.

Is McNeil considered a high level wing, meaning it’s him or Juke?

Disappointing. You need more than 2 wings. Brown McNeil Avdalas Stevenson Veesaar Maximo You need more than those 6 guys. Young isn't going to hack it if you are trying to win big. Just my take. Feel free to disagree.
