Small’s recruitment history is extensive, with visits to Miami (FL) and Ole Miss, and interest from prominent programs such as Kansas, Texas, Louisville, and Michigan. His connection with WVU’s director of recruiting, Nelson Hernandez, and fellow transfer Eduardo Andre, who joined WVU from Fresno State, may influence his decision. (wvsportsnow.com)
Originally from East Carolina, Small began his collegiate career there, appearing in 34 games over two years. He made a significant leap between his freshman and sophomore seasons, increasing his points per game by 13. With one year of eligibility remaining, Small’s next move is highly anticipated by both WVU and its rivals. (wvsportsnow.com)
