Hey all,

Since Sunday afternoon, I've spent a majority of my time trying to track down the guys that visited Kansas this past weekend. I've called and sent text messages to each and every one of them and I've been able to gather some information from a few of the guys that were in town. Obviously, I'm not done working the phones, but here's what I've got so far.

First, Gradey Dick had another amazing visit. Truthfully, there isn't much to learn or see that he hasn't already learned or saw due to the fact that he's been on campus so many times. Still, it was another amazing visit for the 6-foot-7, 195-pound small forward from Sunrise Christian Academy in Bel Aire, Kan. He said the biggest difference this time around was that he had the opportunity to have some type of photoshoot, I believe, with Mark Mitchell, his teammate, and good friend. It was another 10/10 visit for Gradey Dick.

Mark Mitchell, the 6-foot-8, 210-pound small forward from Sunrise Christian Academy in Bel Aire, Kan., was actually the visit guy I reached out to on Sunday. At 3:30 this morning, I received a text message notification on my phone, and it was from Mitchell, the No. 11 ranked player in the class. According to Mitchell, he had a great visit and had a great time. The one thing that stood out, according to Mitchell, was the atmosphere with the people on campus. He said that was "special." I've sent him a few follow-up questions, so I hope to have some additional information for you at some point in the near future. I'd love to know more about that photoshoot.

Lastly, Chandler Jackson, the 6-foot-4, 200-pound point guard from Christian Brothers High School in Memphis, Tenn., LOVED his time on campus. I mean, the visit couldn't have gone any better. I've reached out to him with some additional questions, including if the No. 90 ranked player in the 2022 class plans to return for an official visit. Jackson told me the visit was fun and he had a really good time. He said that he loved everything about the visit and, without question, the coaches really stood out to him at practice.

I'm still working on Zuby and Yohan, but wanted to share what information I had with all of you.
