FORT MYERS, Fla. -- Five-star big man Moses Brown has one more visit at his disposal and he's considering some heavy hitters for that last visit.

Ranked No. 13 nationally, the seven-footer visited Florida State, Louisville, Maryland and UCLA during the fall. Louisville is out, but the Seminoles, Terps and Bruins are still in it. At the City of Palms, Brown also brought up Duke, Kentucky and Georgetown as possibilities.

Brown gave the Cliff's Notes on each of his official visits.

Florida State- "It was a great visit, Coach (Leonard) Hamilton is my guy. I have a real good relationship with him."

Maryland: "I have a great relationship with the coach (Mark Turgeon), he's definitely a family friend of mine."

UCLA- "UCLA was an amazing campus. I had a great time on my visit and I love the way they play with their bigs. I have a great relationship with their coaches."

With one visit left, Brown will have to make a choice on who else to see officially.

"It's between Duke and Kentucky for my final visit," said Brown. "They've been showing a lot of interest and recruiting me pretty hard over the past few months."

Technically, Brown also left the door open for Patrick Ewing and the Hoyas to earn a visit.

"Georgetown is jumping in the mix too. I've been talking to coach on the phone for the past few days and they've been calling my aunt and my father.

The main takeaway is that Brown is in no rush to make a decision. He indicated that he's not likely to take visits until after the season so there's still plenty of time left for schools to solidify their position.

"Nothing is really set in stone right now, I'm still enjoying the process. It will be after the season, I'm focused on the season right now."
