IN HIS OWN WORDS

Wake Forest: “They are telling me how much they love me and that I am a priority. My cousin, BJ McKie, is a coach there and obviously I have a good relationship with him.”

South Carolina: “I am talking with coach Will Bailey a lot right now and he seems to be a real good dude. He keeps on with me how much they like me and how I am a priority for their school.”

Cincinnati: “I have known coach Wes Miller since like eighth grade when he was at UNC-Greensboro. But now that he is at Cincinnati, he has been recruiting me real hard. My cousin Jaylen Stowe is a grad assistant up there so I got a good relationship there too.”

WHAT'S NEXT?

Tennessee, NC State, and Pittsburgh are schools who have not offered me yet but are talking to me pretty regularly.” Tubbs said, “I am just looking for a team that is fast paced, that play defense, that plays with a chip on their shoulder. Most importantly I want to play for a coach who believes in me."
