    • Recruiting, St. John's, UCLA

    Jordan Brown, the 6-foot-10 power forward from Prolific Prep (CA), has two official visits upcoming in the next few weeks.

    Brown will visit St. John’s Oct. 13 for their Red Storm Tip-Off event, and will then visit UCLA the weekend of Oct. 20.

    “There are no other visits set,” Dion Brown, the player’s father, said from the USA Basketball minicamp in Colorado Springs, Colo. “But we would like to take all five visits at some point. A lot will depend on our basketball schedule this season.”

    Recruiting

    Zion Williamson, the No. 2 ranked player in 2018 per ESPN.com, will visit Kentucky, Duke and UCLA across the next three weeks following his appearance this weekend at the USA Basketball minicamp in Colorado Springs, Colo.

    Still, Williamson says not to count out home state schools Clemson or South Carolina in his recruitment.

    “No, you should not count out Clemson or South Carolina,” Williamson told Krysten Peek of Rivals.com in Colorado. “They’re showing me a lot of love and I like the messages they’re giving me.”

    He has already visited Clemson, where his stepfather Lee Anderson played.

    Maryland, Recruiting, UCLA

    Moses Brown, the 7-foot-2 senior big man from Archbishop Molloy High School and the New Heights AAU program, has cut Louisville from his list in the wake of the FBI investigation into bribery in college basketball and is now focusing on Maryland and UCLA.

    Brown visited Maryland last weekend and will trip to UCLA the weekend of Oct. 28 as will Zion Williamson and Darius Garland.

    “They’re out,” Brown told ESPN’s Jeff Borzello in reference to Louisville at the USA Basketball minicamp in Colorado Springs, Colo. “I didn’t want to be associated with anything negative. I really don’t need that.”

    Brown had visited Louisville last month, but Louisville head coach Rick Pitino and assistants Kenny Johnson and Jordan Fair were all placed on administrative leave after the FBI complaint revealed Adidas and Louisville allegedly were set to pay the family of Brian Bowen $100,000 in return for Bowen’s commitment to Louisville and his subsequent signing with Adidas when he turned pro.
