Shareef O'Neal has given himself until March 20 to make a decision on which school he'll transfer to next season. That process is kicking off in earnest this weekend as the son of Shaquille O'Neal is visiting his father's alma mater: LSU.

According to 247Sports.com, the younger O'Neal is meeting with the Tigers and head coach Will Wade as he looks to restart his college career.

O'Neal was a prized 4-star recruit for UCLA and then-coach Steve Alford after originally committing to Pac-12 rival Arizona. The 6'9", 205-pound forward decided not to join the Wildcats amid a then-ongoing FBI case into paying players encompassing the school's head coach, Sean Miller.
