As of 48 hours ago, Erianna Gooden of The Missouri Phenom EYBL has narrowed down her college options to her Top Six choices. Those places being UNLV, Colorado, Columbia, Creighton, Tulsa, and Missouri State. Gooden is a 6’0 PG with a beautiful shooting stroke, fantastic vision for passing purposes in both the half-court and in the full-court in transition, and better than average knowledge of the game. She comes in as the #1 PG, and #2 overall prospect out of the State of Arkansas even though for AAU she travels to compete with the Phenom. She has been next level this entire AAU season and she is only going to improve with time.
