On3 Consensus four-star recruit Assane Diop will announce his college commitment on Tuesday, November 15th. The 6-foot-10 center out of Denver (Colo.) Accelerated Schools is down to three schools: Colorado, Arkansas, and Seton Hall.

Diop has visited each of his finalists officially.

The big man also received offers from Auburn, BYU, Kansas State, Arizona State, Ohio State, and others.

Diop is the No. 104 overall prospect in the 2023 class, according to the On3 Consensus, the average ranking from all four major recruiting media companies. He’s also the No. 10 center and the No. 2 player in the state of Colorado, only behind his cousin, Baye Fall.

Diop discusses programs

In a previous interview with On3, Diop discussed the college programs involved in his recruitment.

Colorado: “They’ve been recruiting me since my sophomore year and they’ve been recruiting me a lot and checking on me every day.”

Seton Hall: “The coach is hungry and the team is hungry. They’ve been recruiting me since they were at Saint Peter’s.”

Arkansas: “I like Coach (Eric) Musselman. He knows his stuff. His energy is different.”
