BYU was always gonna be tough to beat…

Sort of a strange juxtaposition of schools that he has committed to: USC vs. BYU. Cougar Nation must be thrilled.

He could be the next Jimmer Fredette in Provo.

Looks like more of a small forward than a power forward. Nice straight up form on the jumper.

We make a decent number of Top 5 lists. Hope Madsen can bring them in.

It’s definitely huge progress to even be in the top discussion for so many guys. This never would’ve happened in the past 6 years. But like I said, I have a feeling we’ll get at least one of these major outstanding guys

I have a gut feeling, based upon zero information, that at least one of these major recruits is going to turn in our favor.

No doubt. I wish I knew how the staff ranked these guys: Mahaney, Stoja, Pope, Stewart, Kozlowski, etc.? I'm sure it's probably a $ numbers game and just waiting for the dominoes to fall elsewhere. Mahaney is probably my #1 since he has "done it" and because of the Contra Costa connection, which will go a long ways towards local attention, attendance and support.

Exactly. I think lil Stoja and Pope are just out of our price range, given the insanity of the NIL. Kozlowski committed to BYU yesterday afternoon, which seemed the favorite after he bolted USC when Enfield left.

Mahaney would be a fantastic get, and I think Petraitis would help this club…a polished and skilled SF that can shoot and get to the line consistently…maybe not the athlete Jaylon was, but a similar skillset…can he create his own shot v ACC players tho…
