New schools have joined the ranks in the recruitment of Collin Sexton, who is working with a list of 10 schools. All of them are on an even playing field now according to the No. 1 point guard in the Top247.

Alabama, Arizona, Florida, Georgia Tech, Iowa State, Kansas, N.C. State, North Carolina, Oklahoma State and Villanova are the 10 schools Sexton is considering, and he claims offers from all 10.

In July at the USA 17U Trials, Sexton, 6-2, 175-pounds from Mableton (Ga.) Pebble brook High School, stated that he didn't want to open his recruitment to new schools and wanted to focus solely on the likes of Alabama, Arizona and Florida, who had been recruiting him.

That thinking has now changed, and schools like Kansas, North Carolina, Villanova and others on the list are legit contenders to land him.

"I like the school that were on me from the start.... but it's wide open," said Sexton at the Nike Basketball Academy. "It's an even playing field. I'm looking for the best fit for me and my family so they can travel and come see me. And being able to get a good education."

Ranked No. 9 in the Top247 and No. 18 in the 247Sports Composite, Sexton is the ultimate playmaker as a lead guard, capable of distributing and scoring at the highest level. He led the Nike EYBL in scoring with 31.5 points per game, but then also led the USA 17U National Team to a World Championship and captured MVP honors while averaging 17 points, four rebounds and four assists per game.

Being recruited as a point guard and knowing he will get heavy minutes with the ball in his hands as a freshman are also key to Sexton.

His plan is to visit all 10 schools, using his official visits for the schools farthest away.

Currently Alabama has 100 percent of the predictions in his Crystal Ball.
