Dallas AAU basketball connections. Ferguson is friends with Avery Johnson Jr (both from the Dallas area). Ferguson's AAU coach, Mo Williams, also played basketball at Alabama and is friends with Avery Johnson.

Jarrett Allen visited this weekend. Considered a big Longhorn lean. That would be a huge get for Shaka.

Javin DeLaurier
Position - Forward
Rivals.com national overall ranking - 42nd
Size - 6-8, 215 pounds
School - St. Anne's-Belfield (Charlottesville, Virginia)
AAU team - Team Loaded Virginia (Adidas circuit)
The skinny - DeLaurier emerged as one of the nation's top forwards after putting together productive performance after productive performance on the adidas circuit (13.1 points per game on 49.5 percent from the floor and 8.1 rebounds per game) and events like adidas Global Nations (9.2 points per game on 58.9 percent shooting and 7.6 rebounds per game). Rated as a three-star at the bottom end of the Rivals150 at one point, the Virginia native's loud performances pushed him nearly 100 spots up the rankings list.
Fortunately for the Longhorns, they jumped in on the 6-8 prospect early. In fact, DeLaurier told Orangebloods.com in early May that he might have been Smart's first Texas offer, after he called to congratulate the head coach on the coaching move. Smart and his staff recruited and offered DeLaurier early at VCU as well.
Recently, the four-star prospect released a top six (in no particular order) of Notre Dame, Texas, North Carolina, Duke, Stanford, and Arizona. He visited Notre Dame for an official visit last weekend, and the chatter behind the scenes is that the Irish and Longhorns are the two teams at the top of his list right now, although Duke is lurking as well. In early August, DeLaurier told HokieHaven.com the following about official visits:
"I'm not against committing on or right after one of my visits if that's the best fit, but the plan is to schedule all five."
This is DeLaurier's second official visit. Academics will play a key role in his decision.
Prospect Breakdown - Of all the top prospects in the country, DeLaurier has arguably the best motor. He's a relentless competitor that plays with an extreme toughness on both ends of the floor, and with intelligence on the court. He's also ridiculously intelligent off of it, and just scored a 32 on the ACT.
DeLaurier has a developing skill-set, and has the ability, thanks to those skills and a high-level work-ethic, to eventually develop into a player that can play on the wing in college in addition to filling aspects of a traditional four-man. He often beats guards up the floor and runs the floor well, especially for his size, and he's one of the better rebounders in the country.
A perfect example of DeLaurier is a sequence we saw during a game in Las Vegas:
Team Loaded Virginia presses and traps a lot, and DeLaurier played multiple positions in the press, including the middle; on one play, he sprinted from the middle of the press to crash the defensive glass, led a fast break up the floor, and dished it off to a teammate for an easy assist.
