Five-star cornerback Iman Marshall to visit Baton Rouge on the 23rd
Five-star Long Beach (CA) Poly cornerback Iman Marshall has adjusted his official visit schedule, with LSU listed as one of his stops just under two weeks from now.
Per 247Sports national analyst Ryan Bartow, Marshall will take an official visit to Florida State on the 16th of January, before heading to Michigan on the 19th, LSU on the 23rd, and Oregon on the 30th.
Marshall already visited Notre Dame on December 12th.
247Sports ranks Marshall as the fifth-best player in the Class of 2015, and lists USC as the overwhelming favorites to land him at 98%.
Four-star DB commit Ugo Amadi flips to Oregon.
Already having flipped a commitment from Ole Miss to LSU on December 30th, four-star Nashville (TN) Overton defensive back Ugo Amadi has flipped his commitment just over a week later to Oregon:

Amadi reportedly rethought his commitment after his recruiter and former LSU defensive coordinator, John Chavis, left for Texas A&M.
Field getting more crowded for 2016 five-star quarterback Shea Patterson
