All is currently quiet on the Kansas University recruiting front as the week-long early signing period begins today.

Several of the country’s top prospects have decided to wait until the spring to commit to a school.

Prospects who are considering KU include No. 2-ranked (by Rivals.com) Jaylen Brown, 6-7, Wheeler High, Marietta, Georgia; No. 3 Malik Newman, 6-3, Callaway High, Jackson, Mississippi; No. 6 Cheick Diallo, 6-7, Our Savior New American, Centereach, New York; No. 7 Ivan Rabb, 6-9, Bishop O’Dowd, Oakland, California; No. 10 Stephen Zimmerman, 7-foot, Bishop Gorman High, Las Vegas; No. 14 Carlton Bragg, 6-9, Villa Angela St. Joseph High, Cleveland; No. 18 Brandon Ingram, 6-8, Kinston (North Carolina) High and No. 19 Tyler Dorsey, 6-4, Maranatha High, Pasadena, California.

Zimmerman, who attended KU’s Late Night in the Phog, and has also visited Kentucky, UCLA and Arizona, has dropped North Carolina from his list of schools. His fifth visit will go to hometown UNLV this weekend.

“After much thought, I will be taking my last official visit to my hometown school, UNLV. They were my first offer and recruited me since Day 1,” Zimmerman wrote on Twitter.

KU has two scholarships to award in recruiting, more if players turn pro or transfer.
