Troy Holton has cut his list to two: South Florida and Miami.
The sweet shooting 6-foot-4 rising senior out of Oldsmar Christian School (Fla.) cut Marquette, Memphis, Alabama and Kansas State from his 6-school list before he took his visit to USF on Monday.
“I wanted to stay in state,” Holston told SNY.tv. “Why leave the state if I have those schools right here in my own back yard? Marquette, Kansas State, Memphis and Alabama are great schools, but it all came down to wanting to stay in the state.”
Holston says that USF showed him a lot on his visit.
“They told me that they’ve seen both my good games, and my bad games, which is key,” Holston said. “Many schools have seen your good games, but not your bad games, so its nice that they have seen both, and what I am capable of.”
Holston has a visit coming up to Coral Gables to visit the University of Miami on Saturday, and he says that a decision is not too far off.
“Hopefully after the visit to Miami, I will know know for sure what I want to do,” Holston said. “I hope that we can get this settled in the next couple of weeks.”
