Four-star 2027 guard Jeremiah Profit is scheduled to visit Northwestern from Sept. 19-21, giving the Wildcats a major opportunity to make an impression on one of the nation's top recruiting targets.
Northwestern is getting an important opportunity in the recruitment of one of the top prospects in the 2027 class.
Four-star guard Jeremiah Profit is scheduled to visit Northwestern from Sept. 19-21, according to Sam Kayser. He will also visit Arizona State from Sept. 10-12 as he continues to evaluate his options.
For Northwestern, the September visit could be an important step in its pursuit of the talented California guard.
Profit, a 6-foot-5 prospect from Rancho Christian in Temecula, California, has quickly established himself as one of the more intriguing guards in the 2027 recruiting class.
He is currently ranked as a four-star recruit and has continued to climb national recruiting boards following a strong summer on the Adidas 3SSB circuit.
Profit averaged 21.3 points and 4.0 rebounds per game with Gamepoint on the circuit last summer, showing the scoring ability that has helped him attract significant high-major interest.
He has also shown that he can impact the game as a passer, with his ability to create for teammates becoming another important part of his development. That combination could make him an especially valuable addition to Northwestern's future backcourt.
The Wildcats have already made Profit a priority in the 2027 class, and the upcoming visit gives head coach Chris Collins and his staff a chance to show him what the program can offer both on and off the court.
Northwestern has also emphasized the academic side of the program, something that has previously stood out to Profit. There is plenty for Profit to like about the direction of Northwestern basketball.
A player with Profit's scoring ability, size and versatility would give Northwestern another talented piece to build around.
His ability to score from multiple levels, create off the dribble and make plays for teammates gives him the potential to become a major contributor at the college level.
Adidas 3SSB's scouting reports have also highlighted his ability to defend, rebound and create for others, making him more than simply a scoring guard.
That is exactly the type of player Northwestern would love to add to its 2027 recruiting class.
The Wildcats have yet to secure their first commitment in the 2027 class, making every major recruiting opportunity especially important.
Profit could potentially become one of the biggest additions of the class if Northwestern can turn its strong interest into a commitment.
The September visit will not decide Profit's recruitment by itself, but it will give Northwestern an important chance to separate itself from the other programs still involved.
With Arizona State also receiving a visit earlier in the month, Northwestern will have to make the most of its weekend with Profit.
If the Wildcats can impress the four-star guard in Evanston, they could put themselves in an even stronger position to land one of the most talented prospects they have targeted in the 2027 class.
