He'd be a huge get and a great way to finish the 2019 class. If we can land this kid I don't think anyone will catch us in the 2019 rankings

Agreed. I also love it because it doesn't impact any current recruits. Zeke will get his regardless (start and play 30 mpg) and Koloko is a project who will probably be a deep bench guy his frosh season.

This would be a huge get but definitely feels like Gonzaga is in the drivers seat.

Is this kid an immediate impact player or a 4 year type of kid? Or somewhere in between?  Definitely agree, it looks like Gonzaga is the current favorite.

The competition didn't look all that great, but I would bet if Miller brings this kid in that he would be playing in 2019 and Koloko would more than likely redshirt.
Either way, at the moment to only have his Gonzaga official visit scheduled speaks volumes without saying anything at all.
I would hope that he is going to be scheduling visits to the other two schools, mainly Arizona, in the immediate future though.

247 will rank him as a 5 star prospect
