2017 recruiting mailbag update with a big 12 update from rivals.

https://basketballrecruiting.rivals...-mizzou-s-bouncebacks-cincinnati-targets-more

This one is tough as the Big 12, while it didn’t have as good of a year as it has had in the past on the recruiting front, still has plenty of talent entering the league in this fall.

Texas should really enjoy the unselfish, playmaking abilities from Matt Coleman at the lead guard spot, Billy Preston has all of the talent to be the next one-and-done small forward from Kansas, and Lindell Wigginton may become a legend in Ames as Iowa State will surely lean on the freshman guard straight out of the gates.

However, whether it is because of his talent level or due to the volume of minutes and shots that will be afforded to him, Trae Young is the freshman that will make the biggest impact in the Big 12 next year. The five-star guard isn’t a freak athlete, nor is he the biggest of ballplayers around, something that may hold him back from leaving OU for the NBA after just one year.

However, Young is the closest thing the college game will see to Steph Curry next season. He has a hot trigger, a bravado to him and is going to play for Lon Krueger, who allows his players plenty of freedom. Put it all together and Young staying home should and will impact the program in more ways than just one.

KU is visiting Jeremiah Tilmon on Friday. This move could definitely help with Juiston.

I don't want Self to get Tillman but for him put his efforts there for the next few weeks instead of on Juiston. Should give Prohm the advantage.

They are also actively recruiting Duval and Waters as PG unless they have another player leave they will have a scholly crunch.
