Harvard is well on its way to another Top 25 class. Noah Kirkwood has been a top target for Harvard for quite some time.
Noah is a good three-point shot away from being a blueblood target and averaged 13 ppg at Adidas Nations this summer. He also played on the same U19 Canadian Team that won the FIBA World Championship.
If Harvard can land a post prospect to round out the class, it'll likely finish solidly in the Top 25. That'll give it two years with a Top 25 and Top 10 class to see how far it can take things.

The Canadian invasion continues. Does the IL have a higher percentage of high-level Canadian players than other leagues?

How big a class are they aiming for? One or two more? Or more than that?

No more than two. Could be zero. At this point the only real "need" is a post player, but having taken 7 in the 2016 class and 6 in the 2015 class, having a class of three really strong prospects and stopping there would open up some slack for next year when the high-academic class is (hopefully) much deeper.
