4:58 p.m. Update: Some more updates from digging around this afternoon
The staff had a big showing at Hutchinson CC today. They took five coaches Leipold, Ianello, Kotelnicki, Fuchs, and Borland to meet with head coach Drew Dallas and Nadame Tucker and DeShon Singleton.
This is just what I gather, but it is going to be a dogfight with both of them. KU is right in the mix but it will be a challenge.
Leipold, Fuchs, and Kotelnicki went to see Isaiah Adams the OL from Garden City CC after that visit from what I can gather.
I still think they are tracking portal guys and there will be names that pop up. I also think this will be much of the story through late December and all of January and this is going to be fluid.

Quick update on visitors from the weekend... M.J. Griffin a transfer from Temple visited and had a great time and I think it is going to come down to KU and Louisville. He visits Louisville this weekend and that one does concern me.
As I reported earlier Hassan Hall has trips still set to Missouri and Purdue and it won't be until next week we hear anything.
Former Nebraska running back Sevion Morrison got an in home visit from Lance Leipold and Jon Wallace. Morrison could set up a visit to KU this weekend.
In a bit of a surprise Leipold did an in-home visit with Xavier Benson yesterday. I know Emmett Jones was pretty involved but so is Chris Simpson. Still no word if Benson will take an official to KU.
Jake Schoonover has been out looking for 2023 prospects and also getting a feeler on who to offer walk on spots to.
Jim Zebrowski is also out in different areas doing 2023 recruiting.
