    Rakease Passmore, the four-star wing from Combine Academy (NC.) and Team Thad Nation, is down to three schools and has set an announcement date.

    The 6-foot-5 wing is down to Kansas, LSU and Oklahoma and will announce on Wednesday at 7 p.m., per Travis Branham of 247Sports.com. He is slated to visit Kansas this weekend.

    Passmore broke down his three options for 247.

    Oklahoma: “What stands out is the facilities that they have, the players, I really liked Oklahoma and the coaching staff.”

    LSU: “LSU is crazy. I love the fans there. The coaching staff, the way they have had all these big time players, the players have big names. The brand of LSU is one of the biggest in college where they build out their environment so I feel like LSU is good.”

    Kansas: “I have been building a relationship with them for a good while now. They came in last year and we have been texting ever since. We just built a close relationship. I go there [for an official visit] on Friday.”
