IN HIS OWN WORDS
Programs recruiting him the hardest: “Louisville, Arizona, Duke and Texas.”
Louisville: “It’s a really good relationship. The coaching staff was great. They welcomed me and my family. It was great. Nolan (Smith) is like an uncle to me, so it was just a great all-around experience.”
Arizona: “I’ll be taking an official visit next month. I have to get the exact dates, but next month I’ll be out there I believe the 16th through the 18th. I’ve just been building a constant relationship with coach (Tommy) Lloyd, coach (Jack) Murphy and the whole coaching staff.”
Duke: “It’s just constant connection with coach (Amile) Jefferson, coach (Jai) Lucas and coach (Jon) Scheyer. I talk to them constantly. They just check up on me and make sure I’m good as a person. I might get down there for a visit. Hopefully I can get down there before I get back playing.”
Texas: “I just talked to coach (Brandon) Chappell. He’s a great guy. I love the staff, they’re just great all-around people.”
Additional plans: “I’m planning a visit to Gonzaga probably. I don’t know when that would be as of right now.”

RIVALS' REACTION
Bryant’s first action of the high school season will be coming on Dec. 10, and a lot of eyes will be locked onto that game.
Louisville had the most recent official visit and he had a great time there. Arizona is an interesting program here because it is also recruiting other players within his AAU program.
