Crawford breaks down finalists

Georgia: “Growing up it was always my dream to play for Georgia because I loved watching them. I’m from Georgia so when I got the offer a little over a year ago I was excited! I feel like they are moving in the right direction to be a great team.”

LSU: “What I like about LSU is the beautiful campus! When I went on my visit I fell in love with the campus. Coach Mac also lets his guards GO which is also a great thing. I feel like I’d have the opportunity to go in there and help impact.”

Mississippi State: Me and coach (Patrice) Days have built a strong relationship over time and I feel like this is somewhere I also could see myself going. They are a hard-nosed team and play with grit, which matches the way I love to play.”

South Carolina: “Here I love how the staff has always made me feel like a priority. Me and coach (Lamont) Paris talked about how I would come in and be an impact right away.”

Stanford: “I love Stanford because not only will I be able to shine and do my thing on the court but I’ll be also be able to shine off the court, in the game called life. Going to Stanford is something that requires hard work and I’m here for it!”

UCF: Me and Coach (Tyson) Waterman have been in contact for a while now and he has always believed in me from the jump. I feel like this would also be a great opportunity for me.”
