Houston Cougars junior guard Quentin Grimes was named to the Sporting News All-America Third Team on Tuesday.

Grimes became the first Cougar to earn All-America honors of any kind since Gee Gervin received Honorable Mention in 1999. He became the first Cougar to be named to the first three Teams since center Hakeem Olajuwon was a Consensus pick and Michael Young received Second-Team honors in 1984.

Grimes was joined on the Third Team by Herbert Jones (Alabama), Trayce Jackson-Davis (Indiana), Davion Mitchell (Baylor) and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl (Villanova).

Luka Garza (Iowa), Ayo Dosunmu (Illinois), Cade Cunningham (Oklahoma State), Jared Butler (Baylor) and Corey Kispert (Gonzaga) received First-Team recognition, while Drew Timme (Gonzaga), Jalen Suggs (Gonzaga), Evan Mobley (USC), Hunter Dickinson (Michigan) and Kofi Cockburn (Illinois) were named to the Second Team.
