Hardy joins South Florida signees Latravian Glover and Zach Dawson in the class, along with big man Souleymane Diakite.

Here is what Hardy told Made Hoops regarding his decision to commit to OSU:

I committed to Oklahoma State because I believe that it is the best situation and fit for me,” said Hardy. “They told me that I can come in and play right away. They also said that it’s a great situation for me and that I’ll be able to play with the ball in my hands the majority of the time as a freshman. Coach Underwood and his staff see me as a great playmaker who can score and take over games.

“I think waiting until December gave me time to see what school is best for me,” he told MADEHoops. “This was a better option than signing to a school earlier and not being one hundred percent about the decision.”

“I will have a lot of responsibility because Oklahoma State will have no returning guards being that Jawun Evans is a potential lottery pick and they have a senior guard leaving next year,” he said. “They have proven that their system is set up for guards to succeed.”
