"I keep it really open but as far as the top five schools I'm considering, it can change at any moment," Barnett said. "It's based on who is recruiting me the hardest so it would probably be Tennessee, TCU, Miami, Oklahoma, and Oklahoma State."

He also revealed a potential time-frame for his decision, "I was considering waiting longer, but I would like to go into the summer knowing where I'm going to school. I could see myself committing in the next few months, maybe even next month. I know there's a lot of junior days coming up so if I go to one and it goes well, it might be a commitment."

The in-state Texas Longhorns are one school that is recruiting Barnett but does not extend early scholarship offers to juniors.
