When Avery Johnson took the University of Alabama men’s basketball head coaching job in April, his top priority was recruiting — and the first 2016 recruit he visited was Terrance Ferguson in Dallas, Texas.
On Monday, that visit came full circle.
Ferguson, a 6-foot-7 wing who played last season at Prime Prep Academy in Dallas, committed to Alabama on Monday, choosing the Crimson Tide over perennial basketball powers like Kansas, Louisville, North Carolina and Baylor. He is the No. 11-ranked player nationally by both Rivals and ESPN.
