  • Jordan Mickey Looking to Decide Soon

    Share Zagsblog Share Zagsblog
    Jordan Mickey is down to five schools and looking to make a decision relatively soon.

    “Probably the end of this month or the beginning of next month,” the 6-foot-9 Mickey, the Rivals No. 20 power forward in the Class of 2013 out of Arlington (Texas) Grace Prep, told SNY.tv Monday night.

    As first reported by SNY.tv, he is considering Ohio State, LSU, SMU, Oklahoma State and Arkansas.

    Mickey took an official to SMU last weekend.

    “It went great,” he said. “[Coach Larry Brown] was just telling me that he really wants me to be a part of his team next year and he’s looking forward to being able to see him in the next few weeks.”

    Mickey trips to Oklahoma State for his final official this coming weekend. He is looking forward to “see the campus more and talk to the players and talk to coach [Travis] Ford.”

    Mickey said he’s not sure if he will visit Arkansas, but he’s already been to Ohio State and LSU.

    “At Ohio State, I like coach [Thad] Matta and the coaching staff and the players,” he said. “I got a chance to come in and win at that school.

    “At LSU, coach [Johnny] Jones and his staff, I’m looking forward to playing with them.”
