Scott is down to a top four of Houston, Purdue, Tennessee and Texas A&amp;M after visiting all four schools earlier this fall. He originally planned on visiting Syracuse next month before cancelling that visit.<\/p>\n<p>Scott ranks as a four-star recruit and the No. 37 player in the country according to the 247sports composite rankings. The 6-foot-7 wing also ranks as the No. 17 small forward in his class.<\/p>\n<p>A Bermuda native who plays his prep basketball at IMG Academy in Florida. A talented wing scorer, Tennessee is selling Scott on being the next great wing to play for Rick Barnes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey were saying Kevin Durant, Dalton Knecht where I can get open shots,\u201d Scott told RTI after his visit. \u201cGet into the midrange. The same type of stuff that Nate Ament is going to be doing. Getting open shots, getting to the rim and playing defense one through five.

The blue-chip recruit came away surprised by head coach Rick Barnes personality.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cImpressions before (the visit) were that he seemed like a really serious coach, seeing him on TV and all that,\u201d Scott said. \u201cObviously the legacy of, coaching a great player like KD, TJ Ford, Marcus Alldridge, all those great players. But in person he\u2019s a really down to earth guy. I like his belief too. His faith is really nice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Tennessee basketball is still looking for its first commitment in the 2026 recruiting cycle but is in the midst of a run of fall official visits.<\/p>\n<p>To this point, Tennessee has hosted five-star point guard Miles Sadler, four-star wing Bo Ogden and four-star power forward Latrell ALlmond.
