Butler Recruiting: New 2015 targets surfacing
Keeping up a busy recruiting schedule, Butler coach Terry Johnson spent the day in Tennessee according to multiple sources. While looking at long-time target Andrew Fleming of Ensworth High School, he also took time to visit other Tennessee guard Jake Allsmiller.

Fleming has a long list of offers and has been linked with a high-mutual interest with Vanderbilt, Florida, Notre Dame and Memphis along with Butler. As for Allsmiller and Bonds, high school teammates at CPA in Nashville, they are fairly new names in the picture for Butler. Both have offers from LSU but neither has a huge list of offers at this point. Elsewhere on the map, Butler also popped in today to see Keith Pinckney in Georgia and Luke Maye of house High School in North Carolina. Pinckney is a 6-1 guard who currently has offers from several schools, but are headlined by Miami, Minnesota and Xavier. Maye on the other hand is a 6-7 forward whose offers are headlined by Clemson and Virginia Tech.
Butler, Boston, Tulane and Western Kentucky were in this morning at Miller Grove HS (GA) to watch 2014 SG Keith Pinckney.

At this point, it seems very clear that Butler is being very aggressive in its 2015 recruiting class thus far. With new prospects emerging that are now in contact with the program, it is shaping up to be an interesting group to follow.
