Jerry Meyer, a national recruiting analyst for 247Sports, thinks Kansas lands both Carlton Bragg and Malik Newman.

Meyer, who already had Bragg going to the Jayhawks, just changed Newman from Mississippi State to Kansas.

Bragg and Newman are both top targets for Kentucky and head coach John Calipari. Bragg will announce his decision Thursday afternoon at his high school in Cleveland, Ohio.

As for the Wildcats, Meyer expects Kentucky to land Caleb Swanigan, a 6-foot-8 center from Homestead (Ind.) High School.

Here are more details from Ben Roberts of the Herald-Leader:

He is now predicting that Indiana center Caleb Swanigan will ultimately pick the Wildcats. Meyer is the first person to log a UK Crystal Ball prediction for Swanigan, who most are picking to go to Michigan State. (Swanigan was at the Spartans’ home game Monday night).

Meyer is now predicting Kansas for Malik Newman (previously Mississippi State) and Brandon Ingram (previously Duke). He has Jaylen Brown going to UCLA (previously Kansas) and Cheick Diallo going to Iowa State (also previously Kansas).

His predictions for Thomas Bryant (Syracuse), Carlton Bragg (Kansas), Ivan Rabb (California) and Stephen Zimmerman (UCLA) stayed the same.
