Jordan Wood Commits to Howard University - Even The Good White B-Ball Players are Committing to HBCUs!?

Jordan Wood Commits to Howard University - Even The Good White B-Ball Players are Committing to HBCUs!?
Posted By: Will Moss on July 27, 2020

With the crazy news about top prospects Mikey Williams and Lebron James Jr possibly attending a Historically Black College, even some of the famed white high school recruits are choosing HBCUs!

Jordan Wood, the No.23 overall player in the upcoming FINAL TexasHoops Rivals class of 2020 rankings committed to Howard University in Maryland D.C.



The 6-foot-8 Wood has shown a ton of upside and the Howard coaching staff is getting a skilled forward who can shoot, handle and pass.

The relationship between the staff and Wood started during the high school basketball season while Wood played for the San Antonio Cornerstone Prep National team.

What are your thoughts on all of these talented students choosing to go to HBCUs to pursue their athletics and academics?
