Recruiting Update: Sept. 7th

The last few weeks have been the slow time for basketball recruiting. Soon, college coaches will be able to attend open gyms and the recruiting activity will pick up once again. Last year, we were able to make it to many open gyms around the Indianapolis area and we will try to expand our coverage this year.

Here is an update on what has been happening in the recruiting world lately...

Mike Crawford, 6'5" SF Tipton 2013, has an official visit to the University of New Orleans set for next weekend (September 14th). He also expects to have an official visit to Yale September 21st.
