I may have missed this, but was it written somewhere that we are the last visit? Or are we just after Georgia Tech?

Of course it will be the last visit, after he commits on his visit here.

Visiting Georgia Tech before us. Utah also silently in the mix. Jays still favorite

Hope the staff pulls out all the stops for this visit (maybe short of Pitino’s tactics at Louisville). If we land King, the staff can really start to focus on player development and recovery in the offseason.
More important than incoming transfers is getting everyone healed (R2, Kalk, Reef, JC) and able to run our help defense/complicated offensive sets.
We can focus back on that if King commits and then readjust if we do have another guy enter the transfer portal by focusing on a 6’5 - 6’7 wing.
If we can’t land King, then it’s looking likely we’ll get a grad transfer similar to K Jones and Keyshawn. Not the end of the world, but players whose impact is only felt for a few minutes and for one season. Loved the energy they gave us off the bench, but it would be nice to have another big guy for Mac and co to develop and to be heir apparent to Kalk.

Jays slight favorite. King is worried about playing time (which is fair). It’ll be a make or break this week with King who visits tomorrow.

Actually King literally just texted back and said he will have a top 3 by next week.

Top 3? That doesn't sound promising, probably still not set on any 3 or thinking of more suitors.....hopefully the visit can seal the deal.
