The recruiting trail still has yet to heat up for the Texas Longhorns’ men’s basketball program under head coach Shaka Smart, but it should sooner rather than later. We’re very nearly less than one month away from the tip-off of the 2018-19 college hoops regular season. That means that Texas basketball recruiting is going to have to ramp things up into high gear fairly soon.
Potentially the next commit on the radar for the Longhorns is the four-star 2019 center hailing from Wolfeboro, NH, in Kai Jones. As nearly a top 50-rated prospect in the nation right now, Jones would be a fantastic pickup to add to the thin 2019 Texas basketball recruiting class.
