PJ Neal gives Prairie View A&M a sturdy, efficient backcourt option
Neal is a physical, experienced guard who already proved he can handle a heavy load at the college level, starting all 30 games in 2025-26 at Ouachita Baptist while averaging 29.5 minutes and shooting 47.4% from the field with 10.6 points per game[2]. That profile suggests a dependable, low-drama fit: he brings steadiness, efficiency, and guard-level durability more than flashy volume, which is valuable for a Prairie View A&M team looking for a mature rotation piece[2][5]. The main question is how his game translates against SWAC athleticism, but the baseline competitiveness and consistency are real.[2][5]
