If Hughes is class of 2016, would he be eligible at the end of Fall after enrolling for Spring; or would he have to sit until Fall 2017 ?

Great question. He sort of came out of nowhere. I'll see what we can dig up.

Don't put stock in that visit.

After all his top 5 visit (Bama,GT,UGA,Aub, and Fla) he will take an unofficial visit to UAB and then decide.

Looks like Bryant may spend time at the two and one guard spots solid scorer.

Both Marshall and MTSU have a ton of guys in for their big games. Iran defenitely the marquee player of the bunch.

He'll have only visited ODU, Grand Canyon, and UAB. Rutger's coach has been pushing hard for him lately though. As we saw with Grant you don't have to make a visit to commit.

Looks like last pitch time!

Aspire Wizards ‏@aspireacademyaz 57m57 minutes ago Scottsdale, AZ
...Special feeling having Hall-of-Fame Coach Rick Pitino in our gym today! An absolute legend who will go down as 1of the greatest coaches ever

...We'd also like to thank Coach Mike Balado @CoachBalado for making his 2nd trip out here to see our guys practice! #LouisvilleCardinals #L1C4

...Thanks to Head Coach Jeff Jones of @ODUMBB for making his 2nd trip in the matter of 3 weeks out to AZ to see the Aspire Family! #Monarchs

...Another familiar face in our gym 2day was Coach Kevin Devitt @Kevin_Devitt of @UAB_MBB ! He's been here so much he can call AZ his 2nd home!

...Last but not least the Aspire Family would like to thank Coach Sellers @SellersanlyzNBA of @DePaulHoops for coming by today to check us out!

Interesting to see how this will play out. ODU has been on Gueye early like we have.

If he gets an offer from Louisville from Pitino while he's in town...

I get the feeling that Louisville would like Gueye to wait until the late signing period (possibly to see if they get a more-favored recruit). I think they are probably more interested in his Jr teammate. What about the other senior - the Cameroon 6'9" kid with the 7'5" wingspan. Haven't seen him mentioned anywhere.
