I spoke with Edward Smith, Ater Majok’s coach, and they are both in Connecticut on an official visit to UConn, which is beginning today.
“After the visit here, we will sit down and talk and decide what to do, and if Ater takes one more visit,” Smith said. “If the Connecticut visit didn’t meet expectations, or if Ater did not feel perfect about it, we could visit UCLA on our way back.”
Smith said he will remain in Rhode Island during the weekend before the duo travel back to Australia. Majok, a 6-foot-9, 215-pound center from the American International School, already visited Baylor, Maryland and Kentucky.
“We haven’t been in contact with Kansas,” Smith said. “(UCLA assistant) Scott Duncan made a push, so he would be in line for the fifth visit.”
