Three out of the six were starters last season and Jaxson Robinson was BYU's leading scorer.Getting Dallin Hall and Richie Saunders back after they entered the transfer portal was massively important for BYU next season.
Two scholarship newcomers are signed are will be added to the roster. Utah transfer Keba Keita could slide into the starting lineup right away. Corner Canyon signee Brody Kozlowski, who originally signed with USC, has the potential to make an early impact at BYU. Kozlowski could play the stretch four position given his size and shooting ability. Now that Noah Waterman is gone, someone needs to fill that role.In total, BYU has eight scholarships filled for next season and five more to go.
BYU is starting to narrow down its top targets. A few prospects have taken or will take visits to BYU: Chaz Lanier, Elijah Crawford, Berke Buyuktuncel, and Maxim Logue. The aforementioned Chaz Lanier would be able to provide the scoring punch that Jaxson Robinson brought to BYU last year. Four-star point guard. Berke Buyuktuncel, a UCLA transfer, could be the stretch four that Noah Waterman was for BYU. Maxim Logue could provide size and athleticism to the BYU frontcourt.
