Edgerrin James Jr., the son of NFL Hall of Fame running back Edgerrin James, has committed to play basketball for Cincinnati.
The four-star guard, who goes by the nickname “Jizzle,” announced his decision on Tuesday, choosing the Bearcats over LSU and Georgia in his final three schools. James is the 53rd best player in his class and ranked No. 9 among point guards, according to 247Sports’ Composite list.
With the addition of James, the Bearcats head coach Wes Miller has signed two top-60 recruits in this year’s recruiting cycle. The team previously landed a commitment from Rayvon Griffith in May.
