- Makur Maker is changing the basketball world! The #16 ranked player in the class of 2020 announced earlier this year that he will be skipping college and going pro but he never actually declared for the draft. So yesterday he announced his top 4 schools he was considering which were Kentucky, Memphis, UCLA, & Howard. I guess he couldn’t wait to announce it but just hours after his top 4 came out he committed to HOWARD! This is huge news in the basketball world as this is one of the first 5 star prospects to commit to an HBCU! What do you think of the move⁉️ 👀
Only those ready to change things make a difference!! God bless him
Yea like when Ben Simmons went to LSU.. that really developed him for the future.. lol 3rd rate coaches, 3rd rate facilities, bottom of the barrel competition. If the change he wants is a step down then I guess it’s technically a change
@@oldfingers4913 Damn you're really upset. You're commenting on everyone's shit! Lmfaooo go get a fucking life. 😂
A lot of ya been shaming southern Sudanese people bc if they skin tone now ya wanna support him bc he’s going to an hbcu where was the support then
South Sudanese changing the game
@@herdlayer5911 How do you know that anyone here has done that!!?The comment is asinine and assumptive. Lol smh
A real one.. That Move to go to HBCU is BIIIIIG... Imagine if All Top Recruits start picking HBCUs like they do Predominantly White schools... 💯💯💯
I really hope this starts a movement🙏🏾.
All they need is 2 or 3 good players on 1 team and they will dominate
@@RUTHLESSambition5 facts! Becoming a good program takes time and if other African/African American players follow suite and attend hbcu they'll continue to get better over time. Tbh it's more about bringing about change than anything else.
Musa Mansa who is getting better?? News flash it’s not the recruits Lol 3rd rate coaches and trainers who got hired based on skin color lol.. they will face no competition during the season. His teammates suck and can’t get him better in practice.. you two sound kinda dumb on here..
Most of those AAU teams which are predominantly black (since skin color matters to ignorant people) are better than Howard lol.. he should just not go and say he did so you would think he is a African hero lol.. #blexit #candaceowens.. would you rather go on vacation to Hawaii with a white family or the Watts projects in Cali with some “Africans”.. kinda the same thing. Respect isn’t legislative, it’s earned young whipper-snappers! #candaceowens
if he goes to the nba, the sky’s the limit for other D1 hbcu’s
Goat - he’ll make it, the question is when?? If he’s a lottery pick it will definitely encourage more kids to go to HBCUs
Absolutely
Playing sports is about winning. That's the problem is that most of these athletes just play for the money and not the glory. Very bad decision on his part. Decommit and go to UCLA. All of these lower major schools will always be 14-16 seeds and have no shot that the Sweet Sixteen if they even make the tournament. There will never be an HBCU or a UT-Arlington or NJIT type low-major that lands a recruiting class of McDonald's All Americans, and that's the only way they would ever have a shot to go deep in the tourney.
Zenigundam that’s your opinion, it’s his decision, his life and his future. You made your life decisions.
@@RobbieStacks90 do you go to work for money or to win a national championship in your industry? Because when you go to the NBA you go to get paid...winning a championship is optional.
He gonna enjoy himself at Howard too.
Represent us brotha🤘🏾🏀♥️✊🏿
👌🏿💕
❤✊🏾✊🏾
The wave has begun . The landscape of college basketball will change forever.
😂😂😂😂 these comments are hilarious. Y’all are so dumb
Love it......Athletes should of been put HBCUs on the Map
Caucasians are UPSET n this comment section🤣🤣 They are angry and full of conspiracy theories
I’m black and I think it’s stupid.. the makurs of bad decisions.. thon didn’t go to college at all and he is lost in the G-league.. this guy won’t develop at all playing for and against “black” kids that couldn’t make a “white” kids team. Unathletic teammates and coaches who got the job based on skin color and not content of character.. smh a lot of black men sounding like ignorant Becky’s hoped up on soy-milk
@@RUTHLESSambition5 big mad lmfaoo and the black on the outside but eurocentric thinking individuals....i love it.😢😂😂
@@oldfingers4913 you aren't black🤣🤣 never seen a black say "I'm black"🤣🤣🤣 you caucasians are UPSET and that's why you know it's a great move. These kids don't want to deal with racist and his friend who is top 5 in the country is going also✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Just as You wereTY chill
Imagine if All #1 ranked HS player went to an HBCU over the next 5 years!!! DUKE, Kentucky, and all these other colleges wouldn’t stand a chance. Just think how much revenue BLACK ATHLETES can generate into BLACK SCHOOLS!! And how many BLACK COACHES would be talked about instead of a Coach K. No disrespect to them, but they have to have BLACK ATHLETES TO ACHIEVE THOSE ACHIEVEMENTS!! IMAGINE IF HOWARD, TEXAS SOUTHERN OR GRAMBLING COULD generate $100 million in one year!!
Yessir and imagine if black celebs acted as boosters for each school
That's correct we should be sending are Kidz to hbcu to impower are own institution
I agree 1000% 👍
@Isacc McCann Lmfaooo who said anything about whites being racist and you're black????....ok 😂😂😂
@koolcat420 now it's segregation. Lmfaooo white people crack me up. So supporting black owned businesses is segregation too right. 😂😂😂😂😂
I hope he stays longer than 1 year - HBCUs deserve more
No way he’s staying more than one year just because that would take away from him earning big money on the NBA level
@@KyzerSoze718 yeah this dude is a 5 star recruit. Even if he goes only for 1 year and gets drafted. It's still a huge deal.
Nah he 1 and down for sure he too skilled and will he lock in the lottery at worst
He doesn't owe us anything. I'm just glad he made the decision to go to an HBCU. If he goes one and done, he'll show other top prospects that you can go one and done at HBCUs instead of Kentucky or UCLA. He'll attract top level 3 and 4 star athletes that will stay 2 or 3 years. It'll all work out.
Well said!
This is the start of the movement ✊🏾 they could’ve had josh 🙄and him but I’m definitely happy for this decision !!!
OMG they are going to make serious noise in The MEAC
I don’t think so, Howard is ass at basketball I’m glad Makur commuted but I don’t think they’ll make serious noise but God I hope I’m wrong
@@reginalddenney6407 We will see now that A&T will be leaving the MEAC but the only team they will have to watch out for are the NC Central Eagles.
They are 0-6
Congratulations!!!! Great Move you will love the school. The NBA will still find you!
WOW!!! This put a smile on my face. Much Respect my guy.
More power to this brother being the change we needed , hbcu’s been sleeped on for too long
Thon Maker is better at this age, but sadly he went to a team that did not prioritize his development.
Thats crap..his comp in HS was weak,what he got away with in HS he couldnt at a higher level...that was my concern when i saw him in HS,,he cant dribble freely and create his own shot in the pros and he doesnt shoot the 3 well enough nor is strong enough down low to compensate..they gave him plenty of chances with the bucks, other players were just better
@Austin yes sir,,just being real,i mean i was rooting for him but ive seen alot of bigs in HS who SEEM multi and highly skilled..until they face better competition..college would have done wonders for him as well
All y'all hating. The dude is nice. He got good handles for a big.
@@awesom2bemelonestar10 no..its just REALISTIC basketball fans stating facts,,is he a bum?no..but we going into year 3 or 4 and after awhile..you are who you are as a player,,unless he playing PG those handles aint helping him get more than 10-15 minutes a game
headake28 Huh why would he be he’s more athletic Boogie Cousins less post more perimeter. He already has a better build than his cousin and a lot of 7 footers just needs to work on his post game more. But even if he doesn’t have a great college season he’s high potential today’s NBA
Of course an African would be the only
one to understand the importance of this. God bless this kid!
Says the Mexican.... stay out of it nerd.
Just as You wereTY racist much?
Why would you say such a bull shit statement? your statement is equal to me saying since it was a African American that created the desk top computer or a African American that created the light filament inside of the light bulb, that allows for the bulb to stay on all night, that of course it would be African Americans responsible for these creations instead of foriegn blacks for that two would be a bull shit statement.
@@oldfingers4913 Says the racist.. haha no videos talking shit over the internet on a burner account! _SAD!_
This is wonderful news. If you're great, it doesn't matter which College or university you chose. They will come to you!!! However, being a graduate of a HBCU, I'm thrilled that these young athletes are bringing their skills to a HBCU!! So many of our schools need the help, that this move will bring.
My new favorite college player. Good Luck Good Brother.
I wish this young man well. I see potential in his game. Keep practicing and get stronger.👍🏾
Ain’t it funny how an AFRICAN was the first black man to commit to an historical black (African American) College and university. Says a lot ✊🏾
Simple, the man isn't brainwashed to rely on other people... Howard will put their best into him.
@Tre T ignore that white guy... You know these people will have a problem with it.
headake28 these people really think he is the first black b-ball player at Howard.. smh these sjw beckys are everywhere.. fact is his education and b-ball development will be on pause for a year.. no way playing middle school talent will make him better not to mention a school that sets black America back 50 years.. when you see color I see ignorance. Respect isn’t legislated, it’s earned. Govt don’t make money the people do.. get off your ass read some Malcom X and stop buying in to left-wing political propaganda. #blexit #candaceowens Howard’s best into him?? Yea some 3rd rate coaches who are their bases on color of skin and not content of character.. man it’s funny how you’re brainwashed into forgetting what MLK said.
Tre T “ I was in the military, I know about getting used” hahahahaha yea bc the military is paying you for something you signed up for.. I mean how did you make it 8 years in service with that victim mentality?? I’m calling BS.
@headake28 Your attitude is the reason he doesn't want to go to a white school🤣🤣 and you idiots will force black athletes to go to HBCUs. NOBODY wants to deal with caucasians like you... Keep being yourselves and pushing blacks to black schools. I love it. Those schools need us, we don't need thief schools. The NBA and NCAA will go to where the talent is
This kid is KG and KD mixed but most importantly his doing a honorable thing he really can start a new trend with this. Respect ✊🏾 to this young Man and I wish him and Howard’s team much success
BCM-BLACK COLLEGES MATTER (smile)!
The sky is the limit he has a lot of potential. It’s up to him to push himself to be better. HBCU’s much love ✊🏾💯
Respect
Im so happy he did this!
This kid is have a especial talent 💪
Howard is getting a kid that Kevin Durant and Kevin Garnett combined into one. Other HBCUs like mine(The real TSU Texas Southern) will be getting our far share of top prospects as well.
No he’s exactly like thon maker and he will be average. Kd is fast and this guy isn’t. Kg was strong and athletic not like him.
Lee’s Ollie You’re delusional if you think he have ball handling like kd. Kd is fast it’s not his ball handling that matters you can’t cross someone if you’re slow. Kg was a dominating force he was strong this guy is not strong and he’s exactly like Thon Maker look at Thon highschool mixtape it’s exactly like this guy. You guys are just hypebeast and know nothing about basketball.
Lee’s Ollie Don’t ever put Shaq in the same sentence as this guy you’re delusional to a next level.
Solomon S ok “UA-cam scout”
Fuck outta here Tennessee state University the real TSU BOY 😂😂😂
NBA will find him and they will be showing some of his games on television
💯💯💯💯💯more d-1 kids need to attend HBCU'S...I still plan on attending one!💯💯💯💯BLACK LIFE MATTERS😀😀😀😀🆗 he should definitely run the point guard position🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀
Now what’s gonna happen is: they’re gonna try to put hard restrictions on HBCUs getting these 5 star recruits. All coaches from top schools will secretly agree to it. Remember what they tried to do to Maverick Carter? They were gonna mandate sports agents to have a Master’s Degree 😂😂😂. Because he was dominating the agent world.
Exactly! There will be some ridiculous requirement that the school “has to meet” in order to recruit or accept commits
Actually, it was Rich Paul and not Maverick Carter
Lydell Brown Thank you
Congratulations young man! Thanks for having the courage to start the new trend with top prospects choosing to go to an HBCU!
Praying many others will follow in your footsteps! Let’s do it for Us! Because Black People Matter!
That dunk at the beginning scared me lol
That’s wussup be safe at my Alma Mater. I mean that too...Howard can be a lot to handle if you’re not coming focused
🔥🔥🔥🔥 LOVE IT but we need more to follow
Yessuhh definitely dropping that reaction on bro soon 🔥🔥
HBCUs bout to blow up!!
That block at 36 secs got me 😭
We neeed this!!! #hBCU
Like this big win for HBCU
Much success brother
He's about to go crazy at Howard. I see this working in his favor and for the culture
Cant wait to see him with thon in the future
I luv it HBCU ✊🏽👑💪🏾
✊🏿
he has the potential to become an nba great.
He was already considering to go pro before his commitment. He's 1 and done at worst, and could actually still decide to go pro if he wants
BIG UPS YOUNG FELLA
Damn and he’s built too🤯
Imagine a 7' point guard.
Amazing!!!!!!!
Every young black athlete in this country Male and female should go to HBCU period.
Great decision young man. I hope more follow suit
Brother Darkness you are a beast
Round ☝🏾pick ☝🏾🔥🔥
Skills to be all time great.
My lans, thats impressive 👍
HES A DEMIGOD.. this should be good.. #1 pick 2021?
very fit for gsw nice makur maker
That boy different different...
Great move
YESSIR HOWARD
Excelente jugador para minesota 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
0:21 has to be one of the smoothest dunks yo
He makes “two hands for safety” look so aggressive. Lol
I've been waiting on this for a long time. Americas Black High Profile Football and Basketball players head to Historical Black Colleges. The pro franchises will draft you if they see that your worth. Way to make a difference.
Dopeness
Bully mode 💪🏾😤
0:03 well god damn!
The future
Guy looks gd. Got some skills. Can't wait to see him in NCAA
He’s going to be a legend. Howard University final four 🤔....
HU! Great decision.
I think more of these great young black players should go to HBCU , 1st black schools will get money,black coaches will get money,they won’t be called niggas everyday on instagram or Facebook,they won’t be abused by coaches ,I mean I can go on and on . If this becomes a trend it would be one of the greatest things to happen in our community.imagine if Labron had gone to Morehouse the money that would have brought.
By going to Howard it's going to make it all the more tougher when he has to play against superior talent in tournament play later on and in the NBA
South Sudan 🇸🇸🇸🇸
Caucasians are UPSET in this comment section.. Do you see how these people get when blacks look out for their own???
Hype
What is the name of the beat? *_FIRE!!_* 🔥🔥
He has a potential to be the next pascal siakam
I would like to see some other top recruits follow him or even join him at Howard.
1 year or not, good move.
He definitely has Garnett trash talking in him...I love it. Start the movement
a poinguard center. he can surely play all positions
KID IS A MUTANT👀🤔💯
..im 56 years of age and have talked about this for decades..soon jackson st southern u florida a&m and tuskegee will be #1 seeds..
MW1 is my fav #Mikey
Williams
Amazing talent ...but hard to tell because nobody d’ng up on him. College gonna be different...bigger bodies in the lane ain’t gonna be stepping aside.
Omg 1st round!!!
Big Time Move
if not overseas or G League💰 all black top players should commit to a HBCU✊🏾
Ooooo he’s playing like Kevin Durant.
With no handles
I see a lot of people takling about him going to a "black college". As a european it sounds weird. Can somebody explain why "white" or "black" colleges exist? I'm genuinly curious. When people choose in which college they want to go, is the choice conditionned by which color they are??
Basically due to the systemic racism in the US hbcus( historically black colleges , spellman, Howard,morehouse etc..) Have never got the chance to flourish and or the funding to be considered a top college for black athletes to attend . Now with all the racial tension in the world today if all of the top black athletes migrate to historically black schools not only will it force people to watch and generate revenue for hbcus , but also gain exposure and skin in the game for scouts to watch them play . So basically it’s leveling the playing field . Since Duke , Kentucky , Michigan etc... Have profited off black athletes for years , now they want to give back to their own . If that makes sense .
"Black Colleges" in the US were established during reconstruction and Jim Crow so that blacks could go to college since they weren't allowed to go to other universities. The other universities started to allow black students to attend primarily during the late 60s and early 70s. Black student athletes for the most part spearheaded this "integration" which drastically shrank the footprint of "black colleges" which are often referred to as Historically Black Colleges and Universities or HBCUs. Now that there is somewhat of a "racial awakening" taking place in the US, many alumni and supporters of HBCUs see this as an opportunity to attract more students particularly athletes whose talent generate millions of dollars annually for the schools that they attend. HBCUs are often under funded and do not have the expansive booster and alumni bases that the other schools have. All students are allowed to attend HBCUs and they do at about the percentages that black students attend other universities.
Next KG or KD with the right training staff.
Though it was thin for a sec
Lmao why they start the highlight real with that boy abusing him like that !!!!
He look like he was dunking on the whole year of 2020
😭
It's a shame aint nobody gonna see him play live ... The bison suck for one couldve at least went to TSU they make the ncaa tourney every year at least youd get a little noti
I have a question to the group. if there is no season this year because of the virus does he stay for next year?? Or is it possible that he actually never plays for an HBCU of he does go pro?
I think he's better than his cousin Thon Maker! I support the decision of going to Howard, he's got the talent of a NBA Prospect
Mikey Williams should do the same 🙏🏾 ✊🏾 let the transition start!
Ik higher ppl up ain’t want us going to hbcu’s cause the league would be 99% black after the next draft 😂
Damn straight! All black!
80% black already lol
Matsuwd-Emeth Da'ath exactly g
I graduated from a HBCU these is great what he did next up A Top high school player go to a HBCU that mean they start show lot HBCU football games other then grambling and southern
