Che Evans, the Class of 2020 forward from Dulaney (MD) and Team Melo, has trimmed his list to six schools. He took the time to break down his recruitment with ZAGSBLOG.
Evans is down to UCLA, Florida, Ohio State, Texas Tech, Boise State, and TCU.
He has taken unofficial visits to Ohio State and UCLA and used an official visit to Boise State.
UCLA: “With Coach (Steve) Alford getting fired recently, that changes things a bit, but I will wait to see if Associate Head Coach (Duane) Broussard is still there.”
Florida: “I love how the guards create and score it. I will visit them after high school season. Former Team Melo alum Noah Locke is starting and doing well as a freshman. He is like a big brother to me.”
Texas Tech: “Tariq Owens is from the Team Melo AAU program and Coach (Chris) Beard and the staff reach out often. I will also give them a hard look after my high school season.”
Boise State: “Really love how Coach (Leon) Rice and (Chris) Acker made me feel on my official visit. They made sure Chandler Hutchinson and I communicated and I love how they developed him into a pro.”
TCU: “Coach (Ryan) Miller began recruiting me as a freshman and I really liked my unofficial visit. I’m looking forward to see where they are at my position once the season ends.”
Ohio State: “They really impressed me on my unofficial visit. I loved the campus and the whole staff. They are targeting a few wings, but I’m competitive and would fit well in their system.”
According to 247Sports, Evans is a four-star prospect, ranked No. 102 nationally, and is the No. 5 player from Maryland.
