Kobi Simmons Pushes Back Commitment

Kobi Simmons won’t sign during the early period.

The 6-foot-5 combo guard out of Alpharetta (GA) St. Francis has pushed his decision to the spring. He was down to Kentucky, UNLV and Ohio State, but may be waiting to see what several other Class of 2016 point guards choose to do.

De’Aaron Fox and Malik Monk are still on the board, for example.
