"For one, he really doesn't have time," Newman's father Horatio Webster told The Clarion-Ledger in the exclusive series Beyond The Game. "Now that basketball season is over with, I don't think he'll take visits. If he does, fine. If not, that's fine too."

"I kind of look at it the same. I can take my time and just play my ball game right now because it's kind of in my hands right now," Newman said in late March. "The only pressure I feel about it is knowing that my April will be busy, so where do I squeeze in time to take all of my officials?"

Kentucky, LSU, Kansas and Mississippi State are all in the hunt for Newman who is currently the No. 1 guard in the country and the No. 4 overall prospect according to 247 and ESPN.

Newman has not set an announcement date at this time.
