Romeo Langford, the No. 3-rated high school basketball player in the recruiting Class of 2018 according to Rivals.com, arrived on Kansas’ campus Friday morning for an unofficial weekend visit.

Langford, a 6-foot-4 junior shooting guard from New Albany (Ind.) High, averaged 29.3 points, 9.3 rebounds and 3.0 assists a game last season in helping New Albany claim Indiana’s Class 4A state championship.

KU assistant coach Jerrance Howard reportedly traveled to Indiana to check in on Langford earlier this week. In September, KU coach Bill Self and Howard watched an open gym workout of Langford, who is considering KU, Indiana, Duke, Kentucky, Purdue, Louisville, North Carolina, Ohio State, Texas, Oregon, Vanderbilt and others.
