Antwann Jones, the 6-foot-6 wing from Orlando (Fla.) Oak Ridge, has committed to Texas A&M and will sign a National Letter of Intent on Tuesday, 247Sports reported.
A onetime Oklahoma State commit, he changed course after the FBI investigation into college basketball bribery that involved former OSU assistant Lamont Evans.
“He just liked the fit,” Oak Ridge coach Steve Reece told the site of the commitment to A&M. “He felt like he knew the players. He had played at camp with some of the players there. He really liked the coaching staff too.”
“He loved the environment and the culture they have down there,” he added.
Playing with E1T1 Elite AAU program, Jones averaged 10.9 points and 3.3 rebounds in 22 games. He is ranked as the No. 71 player in the 247Sports Composite rankings.
“Twan is an all around player,” Reece told 247. “He’s a really good passer. He has great size, can handle the ball and can score. Watching those guys play the other night, I can see him fitting in really well there.”
