Huntington (W.V.) Prep combo guard JaQuan Lyle will visit Kansas this weekend when they play Kansas State.
“Heading to Lawrence this weekend for my official #kubball #RockChalk ” he Tweeted Sunday.
Kansas already has a pledge from 6-9 Chicago Curie forward Cliff Alexander, and Alexander and Lyle have talked about packaging together.
Lyle has also visited West Virginia, which is pursuing him.
“There’s a need at West Virginia,” he recently told the Indy Star. “They need a big guard who can come in and make plays and I could see myself in that situation.”
Oregon, Memphis and UConn are among those also involved, while Indiana appears out.
“They wanted me to sign early and I wasn’t really trying to sign early,” he said. “They kind of backed off. I probably haven’t talked to them in a month. There’s probably nothing there anymore (with Indiana).”
Lyle will be one of the most sought after players in the late signing period that begins in April — along with Myles Turner and Rashad Vaughn.
