    4_3721433Mario Kegler will take an official visit to Mississippi State beginning Friday, his guardian told SNY.tv.

    Kegler also has visits slated for Maryland (Oct. 15-17) and Indiana (Oct. 23-25). He has already visited Arizona State and Baylor, and cancelled a visit to Penn State.

    “We’ll take all our visits and then we’ll make our decision from there,” Omhar Carter, Kegler’s guardian, previously said.

    As for Kegler’s upside, Oak Hill coach Steve Smith said: “Big strong kid, almost 6-7. Working with him on his body. He’s about 235, he needs to be 220-225. He’s more of a wing guard.

    “Great shooter, 3- point range, good off the bounce. Very good in the pick and roll. Gets to the basket ball well. Can rebound his position and he’s a high, high level player.”
