    Indiana basketball recruiting target Braylon Mullins talks visits, timeline, IU, and more

    Class of 2025 guard Braylon Mullins was the headliner at this year’s Charlie Hughes Shootout in the northern Indianapolis suburbs.

    Head coaches from IU, Purdue, Notre Dame, Kentucky, Connecticut, Tennessee, Michigan, Michigan State, and Iowa at least, and assistants from many other schools were there to see the Greenfield Central H.S. product at some point on Friday and Saturday.

    As the center of attention and against one of the best defensive teams in the state, Mullins was unfazed.  He scored 32 on Indianapolis powerhouse Ben Davis H.S. to lead Greenfield Central to a win in their first game on Saturday.

    A year ago at this time, Mullins didn’t have any high major offers.  Now just about any high major college program would welcome him with open arms.  He told The Daily Hoosier on Saturday the last few months have been stressful, as a wave of new offers rolled in.  And now Mullins is in the process of distilling his recruitment back down to a more manageable level.

    One thing he knows for sure at this point, Mullins wants to get his list down to ten schools and visit no more than that number.  That’s a process in and of itself, as the 6-foot-5 shooting guard is up to around 30 total offers, although the new suitors have seemed to tail off.

    Earlier this week Mullins announced he has unofficial visits set to see Kentucky, Purdue and Ohio State over the next 10 days.

    He has also announced official visits to Michigan, Indiana and Tennessee.

    The expectation is, there will be more.

    “Right now, that’s what I have with set dates, but I’m trying to get the blue bloods like UConn, North Carolina, Kansas,” Mullins told The Daily Hoosier.  “But I want to max it at 10 (visits).  I’m not going to do more than that.”

    So with the six visits he has set, and the three additional schools he mentioned today, Mullins seems to be fairly close to his top schools, although he hasn’t come out and published that list just yet.  Alabama and Michigan State seem like other schools still potentially in the mix.

    While Mullins is gradually beginning to get a handle on his recruitment, the wave of interest has made his timeline for reaching a college decision less clear.

    “I wanted to commit before senior year (high school season), but I’m 50/50 on that,” Mullins said. “I’ve just got to decide if I’m going to do it before or during the season.  But it’s sometime soon though.”

    Indiana had four different staff members watching Mullins at various points over the weekend.  Assistant coach Yasir Rosemond was there for his games on Friday, and head coach Mike Woodson was there on Saturday, along with assistant Brian Walsh and recruiting coordinator Jordan Hulls.

    That was just the latest way IU showed their interest in Mullins, who played at the Indiana team camp a week ago, including a game against fellow 2025 target Trent Sisley when around 25 players, coaches and staff members from the Hoosier program came to watch.

    That didn’t go unnoticed.

    “Especially when we played Trent, they brought all the players, the whole staff, and that means a lot, especially seeing them all in person.  That definitely gives them some leverage.”

    Mullins will be back on the IU campus the weekend of Sept. 20 for his official visit.  He’ll be joined then by his Indiana Elite AAU teammates, Sisley and Malachi Moreno.

    Mullins says Moreno was the ringleader for seeing to it that the three top-75 prospects all did their IU visits together.

    That trio and their Indiana Elite teammates went a perfect 13-0 in Adidas 3SSB games this spring.  They are complimentary players with a clear chemistry.

    Would they ever consider all going to the same school?  Do they talk about it?

    “It’s been small talk,” Mullins said.  “It’s definitely something to talk about, but if it’s not in their interest and they want to play somewhere they want to play at, then it is what it is.”

    That’s just one of many possibilities still on the table.  It’s been a wild year for Mullins, and his biggest decisions are still in front of him.

    There’s still a long way — and a lot of visits — to go, but Mullins says he’s enjoying the ride.

    “I’m grateful for all of it,” he said.  “I’ve just got to figure out what I want.”
