At the 50:35 mark of the
Sep 9 Hawkeye Report Podcast,
@TomKakert talks basketball recruiting.
Tom discusses the 3 basketball prospects who were on campus last weekend.
(1) Luka spent an entire practice talking with
Jaxon Kohler. Tom said Jaxon "admires Luka to death." Tom said that and the fact that Luka and Jaxon have similar games (below the rim guys) has really helped Iowa.
As has been discussed, Jaxon visits Michigan State this weekend; he will also visit USC. He has not made a decision on his last 2 visits (Oklahoma, Illinois & Kansas are in the mix). Tom said Jaxon will take all 5 of his official visits.
(2) Tom reminds us that
Josh Dix is officially visiting Wisconsin this weekend. As Tom said 2 weeks ago in the Aug 26 Hawkeye Report Podcast, the feeling is that it is between Iowa and Wisconsin. Tom said we might see a commitment decision from Josh by the end of the month.
(3) Tom also discusses
Cooper Koch (Class of 2024; on an unofficial visit), who was the 3rd basketball visitor last weekend. Tom said Cooper will likely end up being a Top 50 prospect in the country. Tom said that Iowa is a clear favorite for him.
Additional note: on June 25 Tom forecasted Cooper to Iowa.
Lots of good, current info!!
