2020 Deja Kelly to TX

A 7th grader is our all-time earliest verbal commitment:

The Link


She is the daughter of former UT men's hoopster, Darren Kelly. Point guard who is already 5'8 sounds good.

Welcome, Deja!. Her dad was a pretty solid player for the Horns.
 
I guess everybody's forgotten that I verbaled my six year old daughter to Texas months ago.

Seriously, there should probably be some NCAA limit on these early commitments. I know there not binding, but still....Schools seem increasingly pressured to announce these early offers, and these kids are far too young to make reasonable judgements on their future ability. Creates pressure for kids, schools, parents, everybody. Make the sophomore year the cutoff.
 
Here we go again. Too bad some anonymous internet posters can't just be happy for a Texas legacy, her family, and our coaches. It's as if some posters think they should make the decision for these recruits and their families, and the entire world should follow their rules and preferences.

For those who are happy for Deja, here is some video of her:

Nice pic of her with the coaches.
Thanks for the link, Moo. She sure does not look like a 7th grader, Good rebounder, shot blocker, scorer and passer in that video.
