Top-10 prospect Miles Bridges is down to three schools, and has set a decision date.

Bridges told ESPN.com that his final three consists of Indiana, Kentucky and Michigan State.

The 6-foot-7 small forward had originally trimmed his list to five and planned official visits to Michigan and North Carolina, but those two schools were cut from his finalists.

“I didn't want to waste anybody’s time,” Bridges said. “I’m trying to get this recruiting stuff over with.”

Bridges won’t have much longer -- he told ESPN.com he will make his decision on October 3.

Bridges (No. 8 in the ESPN 100) took his official visit to Michigan State this past weekend, and already tripped to Indiana in late August. He had planned to take his official visit to Kentucky during the Wildcats’ Big Blue Madness festivities on October 16, but the new timetable has forced him to move up his visit.

Bridges will visit Kentucky this weekend.

Bridges was one of the most impressive players in the country during the month of July, averaging 22.8 points and 10.0 rebounds at the Nike Peach Jam.

I don't think much swaying is going on this weekend. He knows where he is headed if he moves up from BBM.

This is going to be tough to beat out MSU and UK. Good thing he isn't going to visit UK for their blue madness. I give coach credit for even getting him to have us in the top 3.

[Walking Boot of Doom 18,170]

Good to get him off of the BBM visit. Seems like it's us and MSU.

We've made it this far with Bridges; you just never know!  I never thought we'd land TB and we did.  Sometimes things happen for no rational reason.

[Yogi'sBicep 1,048]

When did he visit? What did he say prior to it? And what was going on that day? Who else was here? Ugh

[Hoosierfan2017 21,470]

We live to fight another day!

Amen to that ya Old Fart.

In August with CuJo. He said he loves IU. It was welcome back week. Part of why the punishments weren't announced for a few days.

[Alford Bailey 12,386]

Glad we made the cut. And, I admire the kid for wanting to make a decision and be done with recruiting.

[hoosierpap 14,300]

Pretty surprised by this. Still think it's MSU then UK but who knows, clearly not me!  :scratchhead:

He has been really tight lipped about IU. It's weird.

[Walking Boot of Doom 18,170]

He has been really tight lipped about IU. It's weird.

Maybe because of the Bryant and CuJo connection? Doesn't want to seem like too hard of a lean? This is the optimist view, but is a possible explanation.

He has been really tight lipped about IU. It's weird.

That might be the good sign.

I'm of the opinion that Cassius Winston & Miles Bridges have been on the path of their respective college decisions for a long time already.

 

Jerry Meyer @jerrymeyer247
@JohnMsuFan My opinion is that CW has been MSU to lose and MB Kentucky's to lose for a longtime now. Don't see any recent developments.

[NRT137 316]

We don't have a chance. It's like thomas Bryant limiting his 3 schools to mizzou Syracuse and iu-- but in this case with MB we are mizzou. We are just lucky to make the final round.
But then again, sometimes crean can reel in those 5 stars

Jerry Meyer puts his pants on one leg at a time. So you know

But once his pants are on, he makes gold records.

My kid just steps in them and pulls them up. Is she special?

When he's done with these recruits, they're wearing....GOLD PLATED DIAPERS.
