Texas Recieves Commit from 2011 Guard Sheldon McClellan

Sheldon McClellan a 6'5" Guard out of Houston Bellaire became the third member of the 2011 Texas basketball recruiting class($).

 

"The first two visits, I went to the A&M and OU games. I liked it but didn't really tour the school", McClellan said. "The third one (this weekend) really caught my eyes. It felt like home. My mom liked the whole process, academic side and everything. we were ready to make a decision."

Oklahoma, North Carolina, Texas A&M, Baylor, UCLA, Oklahoma State, Southern Cal, Penn State and New Mexico were among the programs that were showing early interest. McClellan, who works out with John Lucas in Houston, said the time spent with the Texas players on his most recent visit was a big factor in his decision.

 

The talented guard said he has no plans to check out other programs, and he's relieved to have the decision out of the way. Bellaire head coach Bruce Glover said "McClellan potential and overall feel for the game separate him from most other players every time he takes the floor."

Guy looks like he has a lot of upside, great pick up for the horns!
