Brendan Hausen, a 6-foot-4 shooting guard out of Amarillo (Texas) Amarillo has committed to Villanova basketball for the class of 2022, according to his Instagram.

Hausen, the no. 36 overall prospect in the On3 100, chose the Wildcats over Oklahoma, Arizona State, Oregon, and Texas Tech.

Hausen discussed Villanova in a previous interview with On3.

“Obviously, you have a Hall of Fame coach, Jay Wright,” Brendan Hausen said. “The staff there is incredible. Just the culture there too… they think I can come in and be a great culture guy for them. A guy that can come in and play big minutes because I can spread the floor so well and shoot it. But also if you look at the guys, Collin Gillespie, Ryan Arcidiacono, guys like that, that have strived there. They think I can come in and be a guy like that.”

Villanova prioritized Hausen, as he was the one and only shooting guard they offered in the 2022 class. Hausen joins fellow four-star Mark Armstrong. The Wildcats have their eye on one final prospect, Cam Whitmore, who’s expected to decide in the near future.
