Duke, California, St. John’s, Colorado and Iowa State are among the schools that will host recruits on this last weekend of February.
**Jayson Tatum, the 6-foot-8 2016 wing from St. Louis (MO) Chaminade, visits Duke for Saturday’s game with Syracuse.
“They have one of the greatest coaches ever [Mike Krzyzewski], with almost 1,000 wins now,” Tatum told SNY.tv before Coach K crossed that rubicon. “They have a great tradition, with lots of great guys that come into that program. It’s somewhere I can see myself going.”
Kentucky, Kansas, North Carolina and St. Louis are among the other schools in the mix for Tatum. For more on Tatum, click here.
