2025 4-star SF out of San Franciso (CA) has committed to Texas A&M basketball

Texas A&M basketball landed a commitment from one of the top small forward prospects in the 2025 class

Texas A&M’s basketball program under sixth-year head coach Buzz Williams has always been a work in progress. The university saw the program’s potential after back-to-back NCAA Tournament appearances. Still, recruiting has always taken a back seat.

However, things have taken a positive turn over the last month, as Williams has landed commitments from 2025 4-star point guard Jeremiah Green. On Thursday, it was announced that 2025 4-star small forward Jasir Rencher chose the Aggies over LSU, BYU and Mississippi State.

After visiting Texas A&M on Oct. 7, Rencher has found his home for the next three to four years.

A top 100-ranked prospect, Rencher’s 6-5 195-pound frame makes him a wing at the next level. He consistently plays with physicality on defense, while his outside shooting is above average, with plenty of room for improvement.

What’s more intriguing is how Buzz Williams will deploy Rencher as soon as he steps on campus, as several 2024 departures might vault the freshman into the rotation.

According to 247Sports, Jasir Rencher is currently positioned as the 82nd-ranked prospect in the 2025 class, the 20th-ranked small forward, and the 9th-ranked prospect in California.

2025 4-star forward Jasir Rencher has committed to Texas A&M basketball

Texas A&M basketball picks up a commitment from a top 25 small forward in the 2025 recruiting cycle

Texas A&M basketball head coach Buzz Williams picked up his second commitment from the 2025 class. On Thursday night, the 6’5″ small forward Jasir Rencher, out of Oakland, California, confirmed via social media that he will join the Aggie basketball team.

Here is what he had to say about why he chose to commit to Texas A&M

“Choosing a school was by far the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do,” he said. “I was really down to 2 schools that both fit me really well on and off the court. But I chose Texas A&M because they were recruiting me for a long time. It’s a beautiful campus. They’re about their players. And like I said before they fit me on and off the court.”

Rencher is an aggressive two-way player who fits right in with what Buzz Williams has established in Aggieland. He is also a winner, helping lead his team to an undefeated WCAL season and a CCS Open title in the same season.

4-star LSU basketball target announcing decision Thursday night

The Tigers will look to add another blue-chip prospect to their 2025 class on Thursday night.

After a slow start in the 2025 recruiting cycle, LSU men’s basketball coach [autotag]Matt McMahon[/autotag] landed a pair of top-100 commitments in the month of September.

Now, the Tigers could be poised to add another blue-chip prospect to the class as four-star small forward [autotag]Jasir Rencher[/autotag] is set to announce his decision at 7:30 p.m. CT on Thursday night.

Rencher is a native of Oakland, California, and plays for Archbishop Riordan. He ranks as the No. 107 player in the 2025 recruiting class and is the No. 21 small forward, according to On3’s industry rankings and will decide between a list of finalists that includes Washington, Oklahoma, Texas A&M and New Mexico in addition to the Tigers.

LSU seemingly has some ground to make up here as the Aggies are a heavy favorite to land him according to the On3 recruiting prediction machine.

LSU makes the cut as blue chip small forward narrows list to 5

Matt McMahon and the LSU Tigers have made the final five for one of the best small forwards in the 2025 recruiting class.

Matt McMahon and the LSU Tigers have made the final five for one of the best small forwards in the [autotag]2025 recruiting class[/autotag].

[autotag]Jasir Rencher[/autotag] is a 6-foot-5, 195-pound, four-star small forward from Oakland, California, where he plays for Archbishop Riordan High School. The Archbishop Riordan Crusaders finished last season with a 25-5 record and a loss to Salesian College Preparatory in the state semifinals.

The Tigers currently do not have any commitments for the 2025 recruiting class, but LSU is in the hunt to land some of the best prospects in the country. There are currently no crystal ball projections at this time for Rencher and there are no clear favorites to land him per On3.

The Tigers finished last season with a 17-16 record and a 9-9 record in conference play. It was an improvement from the 2022 season but there is still work to be done for [autotag]Matt McMahon[/autotag] and his coaching staff.
