Kansas University basketball recruiting.

Kansas University basketball recruiting target Marques Bolden has scheduled two trips to KU. Bolden, a 6-foot-10, 240-pound senior forward from DeSoto (Texas) High who is ranked No. 14 nationally in the Class of 2016 by Rivals.com, will visit officially on Sept. 25-26. He will make an unofficial visit for Late Night in the Phog on Oct. 9.

Bolden told Jayhawkslant.com he wants “to get a closer look at Kansas. I talked to coach (Jerrance) Howard and he suggested that I come at a time when there weren’t any other recruits and then I’ll visit for Late Night unofficially when all the other recruits are on hand as well.

“I’m just looking forward to talking to coach (Bill) Self and really just getting a feel for Kansas and everything like that,” Bolden added. “Kansas is a very serious option for me.”

He will visit Duke on Sept. 18-19, which follows his recent unofficial trip to Durham, North Carolina. He also is considering Kentucky, Texas, Wake Forest, Louisville, Baylor, Oklahoma, Texas A&M and UCLA.

Jackson wins slam dunk: KU recruiting target Josh Jackson, a 6-7 senior shooting guard from Prolific Prep in Napa, California, won the Under Armour Elite 24 slam dunk contest Friday on Pier 2 under the Brooklyn Bridge in New York.

Jackson, who is ranked No. 1 in the Class of 2016 by Rivals.com, defeated future Baylor player Mark Vital (6-5 from Dallas, ranked No. 72) in the finals. Jackson’s winning dunk is available at http://ljw.bz/1JbuHZm

Jackson — he recently scored 50 points and grabbed 16 rebounds in the Big Strick Classic in the Big Apple — has visited Maryland and tells Zagsblog.com he wants to visit KU, Arizona and Michigan State.

He also has UCLA, UNLV and Villanova on his list.

“I’m going to take an official visit to Kansas. I’m just not sure when yet,” he told Zagsblog.com. “It’s more than likely going to be a late decision (to pick a school).”
