ESPN Recruiting analyst has AJ with the most "NBA potential," while fellow BU recruit Yessoufou is "hardest playing."

Seems BYU is the fav for AJ. Rumors (keep in mind rumors) are his asking price is 3-5 million. That's just insane if true

Plays in Utah at Utah Prep. Apparently loves the state in general. And from other boards he's not real interested in playing at a blue blood program.
None of this means a ton BU can absolutely sway him when he visits.

BYU seems to be committing a ton of money to get guys and they have an nba guy selling that experience. They're in on a lot of guys and outside of us they might have the most talented young guys next year

If he gets $5mm NIL, and falls to 10 spot or lower in the draft, he will be taking a salary cut to go pro.

What's wild is how exceedingly rare it is for a superstar freshmen to put you over the top for a national title.

You would almost certainly be better off spreading that cash around to experienced 22 or 23 year old young men who are excellent college players with no real shot at the NBA and pick up an experienced big.

I just feel like I'm taking crazy pills on programs splashing cash at players who maybe get you to the second weekend of the dance. Cooper Flag about to become a very interesting case study on setting the market for one and done players.

Yeah I agree! That's wayyy too much $$ for a freshman. Even one as talented as AJ.

Barring an injury, there is no way he falls below top 3 much less top 10.

Not interested in a blue blood but has 3 (counting BU) in his top 7?

BU isn't a blue blood. KU and UNC are widely considered long shots to land him.

Bu is new, not blue. This is a fit and $ play. Byu is making a big push in bball recruiting with their new staff and NIL committment.

I believe Trilly already confirmed Bag U's biggest money offers went out to Peat and Yessoufou. Not likely to afford all 3.

Peat was originally supposed to be visiting here last weekend, but rescheduled for his final visit in late October. He's visiting 'Zona this weekend.

Still have a bad taste in my mouth about placing too much on 18 year-olds come March.

I think Drew has the right model figured out with focusing on 1 or 2 top recruits and then surrounding them with experienced veterans. It just hasn't fallen our way the past couple of years because we were too reliant on the freshmen to be the featured players. He has it correct this year with 2 veterans in Roach and Omier as the features and then supplemented with Edgecombe with assistance from Wright and possibly Asemota and other returners. The unanswered question at this point is just has Drew put together an assistant coaching staff that can instill a defensive mindset into the team.
