Where is the official visit rescheduling for Acaden?
Hoyas have had one recruiting visit since KJ officially came in and it was a player whose other top school recruiting them is Akron. Top notch recruiting lead?

Top notch recruiting lead? We've had at least 4 guys in since Johnson was hired - Cliff O, Sean Stewart, the kid you're talking about and a 2026 local prospect.

Top notch recruiting lead? We've had at least 4 guys in since Johnson was hired - Cliff O, Sean Stewart, the kid you're talking about and a 2026 local prospect. I thought Cliff and Sean came through before KJ was officially onboard. Cooley also had a stop in with Cliff in New Jersey after he first entered the portal and Hoyas season was done. Who were the other two official visits? I completely missed them. KJ is still under restriction from off campus recruiting (I can't remember when that ends, but it is summertime, but after high school open play summer period). Yes, it was the '26 player, but I didn't recognize his school as local, but outside the DMV. That player wasn't an official visit as too early. But, still a recruiting visit. The bump of Acaden visit and needing to reschedule is a concern. Not having it quickly rescheduled is a larger concern. Acaden and his family showed very strong interest in becoming a Hoya and a player of that skill should get solid attention. Helping Acaden become a Hoya should be made as easy as possible. Increasingly looking like a wide open window has become one not as open.

What do Acaden Lewis and Jordan Scott have in common? They do not play for Team Takeover. These are the kinds of things that happen when you hire Kenny Johnson.

It is on par with Ronnie Thompson poor basketball thinking. Thankfully KJ only stays with any program 2 or 3 years and is gone. TTO is good, but 4 or 5 players are top D1 capable each year, but there are hundreds of players that are at the same level or better. I really want to be wrong on this front, but we need players capable of playing now to fill gaps and have top high school recruits lined up, as well as securing top players who really want to be a Hoya.

He’s played the last two weekends so don’t think he would visit then

You know, the one he was originally scheduled to visit Georgetown…

"4-star PG Acaden Lewis (2025) – Acaden Lewis played at his own pace never got rushed, and consistently put the ball in useful situations. The jump shot was falling, knocking down four threes in the game, but it was the leadership and his keeping his teammates involved that made things run smoothly. With the game tight, you had the trust that Lewis would make the right play." www.on3.com/news/nike-eybl-circuit-session-2-top-performers/

I watched him play in Memphis…solid player. His dad is very close with Cooley and staff. If he doesn’t end up at Georgetown it’s not because we haven’t tried or don’t have the connections. Georgetown is definitely on his radar.

Been at least 4 more than that - at least 8 that I've seen mentioned. Awaka and Burks are two of the missing ones.

Burks just visited this weekend (which hasn't really been confirmed), hard to blame me for missing that in a post from last week.
