Sean Miller and the Arizona Wildcats have a big week of official visits coming in the first week in August.
Arizona will host both 6-foot-11 Marvin Bagley and 6-2 Devon Dotson, with Dotson slated to come Aug. 1-3.
"Coach Sean Miller is doing a good job of talking to my parents and talking to myself," Dotson said last week at the Under Armour All-America Camp, where he may have been the best player in attendance. "I haven't visited there but I've heard great things about the program."

Dotson is also planning officials to Kansas and Florida.
Meantime, Bagley is currently on an official to USC, where both of his younger brothers were also offered by head coach Andy Enfield, and also visited Duke last week.
Bagley also plans to visit Kentucky, Kansas and UCLA.
Dotson and Bagley will visit Arizona at a key time, as the Wildcats will travel to Spain in August for a foreign tour, including a trio of exhibition games. The Wildcats will spend time in Barcelona and Valencia Aug. 11-19.

I read today that Bagley's visit is Aug 2-4, is Dotson going to match?
I saw that Bagley reportedly filed the paperwork to reclassify to 2017. Anyone with insight into how long that review takes?
He did file the paperwork, but he has no real chance of being eligible for the start of the season. If he can get enough work done by mid season he would be able to join a team then if he can meet all the criteria the NCAA requires of him by then.
Still looking like he won't be able too and will end up in 2018 class.
I don't get why this wasn't planned at the beginning of the 2016-17 school year.
He would have had an entire school year to put a dent in his course load, and maybe guaranteed himself an early-enrollee a la H.Diallo.
Waiting until July to file when we all know the NCAA won't rush to make a decision is not the best option.
I hope he doesn't, as we will have more time to recruit and hopefully make a Final Four run to leave a lasting impression on him.
Ar1zona, they'll both be here on the 3rd, no word on if that's changed.
Big week on campus.
