Yesterday we found out that Emarion Ellis was switching his college choice from Texas to Marquette to play college basketball for Shaka Smart. Today, we got another one of those, as David Joplin announced that following his release from Texas, the Class of 2021 prospect will be enrolling at Marquette this fall to play for Coach Smart and the Golden Eagles.
I don’t know how conversations went with other programs, but Joplin had no shortage of high major coaches reaching out to him after he was released from his letter of intent.
