No. 2 – Texas A&M

Up until Buzz Williams took this job I would never had A&M in his top five even. But, Buzz was the coach that showed the most interest in him for most of this process while at Virginia Tech. Now that he is the coach of the Aggies, I think that helps them tremendously. They already had a decommitment from another small guard in Sahvir Wheeler, so why not go for another one?

They would offer him the ability to play with a very good coach at a program that wants to win but is going through a rebuild currently. It was just in 2017 that the Aggies were ranked in the top-10. They have fallen off ever since then however. They lost many of their key players in the last two season, which would open up starting minutes from the beginning.

I think that is something that he wants. He would not have reclassified I do not believe if he wanted to sit the bench. He could be the start of the rebuild for the coach that pushed hard for him to begin with just at a different school. Watch as I think the Aggies are making a late push for him to bolster their class.
