Marquette transfers Joey Hauser and Sam Hauser have set two more official visits and narrowed their focus to three schools, according to college basketball insider Jeff Goodman of Watch Stadium.

"Marquette transfers Sam and Joey Hauser told Stadium they will visit Virginia on Thursday and moved the Michigan State visit to the May 14th," Goodman tweeted. "They have visited Wisconsin and will choose from those three schools."

The Stevens Point, Wis. natives were both recruited by current head coach Greg Gard coming out of high school. The Badgers did extend a scholarship offer to Joey, but due to limited scholarship numbers in their 2016 recruiting class, passed on Sam. Gard, who was an assistant under Bo Ryan during Sam's recruitment, was the lead recruiter for the second-team All-Big East selection.

The duo helped Marquette to a 74-69 win against UW last season, as well as a NCAA Tournament berth (the Golden Eagles' second under head coach Steve Wojciechowski) as a No. 5 seed. They lost their first-round matchup though, to Murray State, and finished the season 24-10.

In 2018-19, while averaging 33.4 minutes per game, Sam chipped in 14.9 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 2.4 assists per contest. He checked in at 46 percent from the field and 40 from 3-point land, while adding an impressive 92.4 percent effort from the free throw line.

Joey, who was named to the Big East All-Freshman Team last season, averaged 29.2 minutes per game, giving the Golden Eagles 9.7 points, 2.4 assists, and 5.3 rebounds per game.

The brothers took an official visit to Wisconsin the weekend of April 26. The Badgers currently have four scholarships open for next season.

"They're still going through their tour here," Goodman said. "I think they've gone through the process the right way, setting the visits, taking them all, then trying to come to a conclusion...what's the best fit for them?

"They obviously took a lot of criticism, leaving a situation at Marquette that was certainly helpful for them and helpful for the team. We don't know the clear reasons why they left, but certainly you can surmise that they wanted a bigger role, they wanted the ball in their hands a little bit more. Markus Howard coming back to Marquette, we know it's his show there and it's not gonna change."

Due to NCAA rules, Sam will have to sit out next season and return in 2020-21 as a senior. Barring a waiver from the NCAA, Joey will have to sit out the 2019-20 campaign as well, losing a year of eligibility and returning in 2020-21 as a junior.
