Baba Oladotun, the No. 10 prospect in 2026, committed to Maryland on a YouTube livestream watched by nearly 5,500 people, choosing the Terps over Kentucky, Georgetown and Arkansas. The 6-foot-10 Blake High standout, flanked by family and teammates’ cheers, set Maryland and Georgetown hats on the table before revealing Terps shirts. His father beamed, noting the campus is “only 20 minutes from the house.” The reclassified 2027 star strengthens first-year coach Buzz Williams’s class, which included Kaden House, Adama Tambedou and Austin Brown and was ranked No. 13 before his pledge. He becomes Maryland’s second-highest ranked commit.
