    Seton Hall, Ohio State, TCU, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Baylor, UConn, Ole Miss, Central Florida, California, Western Kentucky, Indiana, South Carolina, Texas Tech and LSU had all been in contact, his AAU coach Norton Hurd said Monday.

    “I chose TCU for four main reasons,” he said. “First, because of the close relationship my family and I have built over the last year and a half with Coach Ryan Miller; No. 2, the resumè of Coach Jamie Dixon and his proven track record for developing talent and winning ; No. 3.the emphasis the university has placed on making basketball a priority; and lastly the opportunity to have the ball in my hands from Day 1 in the Big 12. Those were the reasons I chose TCU.”

    Ranked the No. 10 point guard in 2016 by 247Sports.com, Fisher initially considered Baylor, Indiana, Memphis, Arkansas and LSU before picking UNLV in October 2015.

    He decommitted last week.
