Harrison Barnes, the No. 2 player in the Rivals150, has cut his list to six schools.
His list now looks like this: North Carolina, Kansas, Duke, Oklahoma, UCLA and Iowa State.
The news was first reported by Eric Bossi via Twitter and confirmed by Barnes and his coach at Ames (Iowa) High, Vance Downs, by text.
Barnes plans to visit North Carolina over Labor Day weekend and Duke in “early fall,” Downs said.
“That’s it so far,” Barnes said regarding visits.
“His potential is “limitless,” Downs said. “He’s as good as they come. First of all, he’s a wing player. He’s all of 6-foot-7 with the wing span of a 7-footer. He’s explosive. He’s got an inside game, an intermediate game and a perimeter game.”
