There aren't very many highlights, and they're only from a couple of games. ESPN labeled him as an above the rim player if he has an open lane.

I don't have access to the article but it links to Missouri's scout site. Haith must be making a play. Hope Harris knows an eff storm when he sees one.

Malek harris now has a visit scheduled for VaTech on 04/28. Gonzaga is most likely going to bow out of the race after landing Domantas Sabonis today. Hopefully Malek ends his recruitment before 4/28.

Danuel House is transferring out of Houston. Would be pretty cool if he went from one Brooks to another. But lets just land Malek.

Still. Some of those offers. Pretty impressive snag for Houston. Well, was.

I doubt recruits want to wait any longer to commit than they have to at this point, but I can also understand why it makes sense to wait. Kansas State is in a great position for Harris because the SF spot will be there for him regardless over the next few weeks. Even if Harris doesn't take the offer, State still has proven stud/boss Westicles (I really, really want Harris to take it though). Buzz, on the other hand has a lot of pressure to shape up his roster fast, so waiting two weeks to set up a visit with Harris is odd. Since VT didn't offer as soon as TJ Lang decommitted a couple weeks ago I'm guessing Buzz is having a difficult time convincing his new bosses to offer a schollie, as at Marquette.

I like the fact that Weber and Currie are willing to actually get s*** done and offer a great athlete when others can't (or won't). Here's to hoping oscar breaks out his most special pack of Twizzlers tomorrow for this fine recruiting occasion. "It's a celebration"

The problem for some schools, and I believe KSU falls in this camp, is that at this stage in the game, there is a very strong prettiest-girl-at-closing-time effect in recruiting.  More prestigious schools suddenly become desperate to fill roster gaps and thus grasp furiously at the scraps left on the table.  If oscar manages to pull this off, it will be a noteworthy accomplishment.
