    Myck Kabongo is a serious player and person. He's also a man of his word and for that reason, the decision he made Saturday was one he wrestled with for a long time. Backing off a college pledge wasn't something he ever envisioned happening and he's not interested in the publicity that comes with being a high-profile, available senior. He is, however, interested in making sure of his decision and for that reason Kabongo decommitted from Texas.

    To avoid the onslaught of interest and attention, Kabongo is looking at only five programs and made it clear he's only interested in relationships with a select handful of programs.

    "I'm not opening it up to everybody but I'm going to open it to certain schools," said Kabongo. "I'll look at Syracuse, Duke, North Carolina, Texas and Kentucky. That's it."

    Myck Kabongo back with Texas

    Just five days after reconsidering his commitment to Texas and taking a brief spin around the landscape, five-star point guard Myck Kabongo decided his first decision was best and will sign with the Longhorns.

    Kabongo, who's No. 9 in the ESPNU 100 and the nation's No. 2 point guard, said last weekend that he was going to look into Duke, Kentucky, North Carolina, Syracuse and Texas and he did talk with coaches and recruits from the various programs over the last few days. But those talks only made him realize he never should have decommitted from Texas.

    "I took a quick step and I evaluated everything and quickly realized that Texas is best for me," Kabongo said in a text message to ESPN.com. "For all the reasons I've stated before in the past, there's no way I can build a relationship with (another) coach in a year like I have with Coach (Rick) Barnes and the staff at Texas and I don't want to waste the other coaches or individuals associated with the schools time knowing this."
