<p>This week marked the first week college programs could be out for the Fall live evaluation period. College coaches sat in high school gyms around the country, brandishing their logos across their chests, so their top basketball recruits could see them. </p>



<p>Fall is a telling time of year for recruiting. In the summer, college coaches are able to choose an event where they can see multiple players. In the Fall, you can get more of a feel for a program’s recruiting board because a coach is – most of the time – only able to visit one recruit at a time. They are forced to prioritize in the Fall.</p>



<p>Duke head coach Jon Scheyer hit the road this week to check in with some of the Blue Devils’ top prospects. He is in a unique position in that he has five players already committed and not signed, so mixing in visiting committed and non-committed players. Let’s recap the week.</p>
