Makur Maker's interest in Howard University wasn't just talk.

On Friday morning, the five-star center became the highest-rated player ever to commit to a historically black college or university.

He chose an HBCU over schools like UCLA or Kentucky, and he hopes to be a trailblazer for other highly-rated prospects to do the same.

Williams, who Maker mentioned in his Tweet, is a highly rated 2023 prospect who has long been discussing the possibility of attending a HBCU. And it seems that option is very much still on the table.
