Oregon: “It would be great to be home. My family would be able to be there at my games. I have a good connection with Coach (Dana) Altman and Coach (Chris) Crutchfield. That’s a great place to be.”
Gonzaga: “Man, they play up and down. That’s just a great coach- Mark Few…Brian Michaelson. They’ve just always shown love from the beginning. I was the first they offered in the 2023 class so that stands out to me.”
