Recruiting
The nation’s No. 1 recruit could make Friday the 13th awfully lucky for one school.
Harrison Barnes, a 6-6 swingman from Ames, Iowa, is trying to settle on announcement date where he’ll announce where he’ll play hoops next season. Six schools are in the mix: North Carolina, Duke, Kansas, UCLA, Oklahoma and Iowa State. Much of the Internet chatter has focused on the Heels and Devils, but it’s really anyone’s guess.
When Barnes – who’s making his last unofficial visit to Iowa State this week – decides, the school settle on a date and method of announcement, likely on some version of ESPN.
“We’re still working out the details,” Judge Johnston, the Ames (Iowa) High School activities director, told Adam Zagoria. “There’s a lot of stuff going on out there in the Internet world.”
The season kicks off next week and the top prospect may decide his future? I love this time of year.
