Top-50 Recruit Bo Ogden Commits to Texas, Sean Miller’s First Win

BREAKING: Bo Ogden, a top-50 small forward, has officially committed to the Texas Longhorns, marking a significant milestone for head coach Sean Miller. This announcement comes just hours ago, positioning Ogden as Miller’s first high school recruit since taking the helm last spring.

The commitment from the 6-foot-5 wing out of Westlake High School in Texas is particularly noteworthy. Ogden’s father, Chris Ogden, a former team captain for the Longhorns and current general manager, has deep ties to the program. While many believed Ogden would follow in his father’s footsteps, competition from Tennessee and Purdue made this decision far from a certainty.

In an exclusive interview with ESPN, Ogden revealed, “Coach Miller was the ultimate reason I picked Texas. His practices showed me he is a great teacher, which I value.” This bond between player and coach proved pivotal. Ogden noted that Miller’s dedication to player development and competitive spirit resonated with him deeply. “He knows what it takes to develop players and has done it at a high level,” he added.

Ogden has made a name for himself as one of the best scorers on the Adidas 3SSB circuit, averaging an impressive 20.9 points per game, ranking him ninth overall in scoring. His shooting stats are staggering—Ogden shot 52.8% from beyond the arc, making approximately 3.5 three-pointers per game. He also showcased his skills at the free-throw line, converting 86% of his attempts.

The emotional weight of staying close to family added to his decision. “Texas offers excellent resources and has a powerful brand, and being close to my family is an added plus,” Ogden mentioned, highlighting the personal significance of his choice.

As Sean Miller continues to build his program, Ogden’s commitment is a promising start. He previously retained top-100 recruit John Clark, who had committed under former coach Rodney Terry, and has also signed two international prospects along with five transfers.

WHAT’S NEXT: With Ogden officially joining the Longhorns, fans are eager to see how this will impact the upcoming season. As Miller works to establish his coaching legacy at Texas, Ogden’s skills and competitive drive could play a crucial role.

Stay tuned for more updates as Texas basketball continues to evolve under Miller’s leadership. This is just the beginning of what promises to be an exciting journey for the Longhorns.
