Indiana is still actively recruiting for the class of 2014, but at least one of the names who was being mentioned as a potential addition will not join the program.

As first reported by Mike Miller of The Herald-Times, Inside the Hall has confirmed that Indiana will no longer host forward Ray Kasongo for a visit.

The 6-foot-9 Kasongo, who is from just outside of Toronto, Canada, was denied admission to Oregon, where he originally signed, in late June despite being a NCAA qualifier.

Several schools have expressed interest in Kasongo in recent weeks, including Kansas, Indiana and LSU.

He had planned to visit Bloomington this week, but was not admitted to the university, according to sources.

Indiana is still pursuing forward Emmitt Holt, who had reclassified to 2015, but is being pursued by the Hoosier staff as a 2014 recruit. Holt is expected to take an official visit to Bloomington beginning on Monday.
