Bryant McIntosh is the latest player to commit to new Northwestern coach Chris Collins, having pulled the trigger on Monday.
The 6-foot-3, 180-pound three-star point guard from Greenburg (IN) said he also considered Purdue, Iowa, Xavier, Dayton, West Virginia and Vanderbilt. He had previously decommitted from Indiana State.
“I picked Northwestern because it was just the right fit for me,” he told SNY.tv. “The opportunities there were perfect for me in both school and basketball.
“Coach Collins and the rest of his staff did an excellent job of getting me to feel comfortable on my visit to campus and just building that relationship with them.”
McIntosh is Collins’ third commit for 2014 , joining 6-6 Chicago small forward Victor Law and 6-8 Cleveland power forward Gavin Skelly.
“I will bring a lot to Northwestern with my ability to be a ‘lead’ guard like Coach Collins has told me,” McIntosh said. “He will look for me to score and create for myself and others. I am a winner, something Coach Collins and I have in common and that is why I believe we will be successful faster than people think.”
