BYU Basketball Lands Major Recruiting Win with Elijah Crawford Commitment
In a major coup for Kevin Young and the BYU basketball program, four-star point guard prospect Elijah Crawford has committed to the Cougars. This is a significant recruiting win for Young, who has been making waves in the college basketball world with his impressive recruiting skills.
Crawford, who previously signed with Stanford in November, was released from his National Letter of Intent on May 15 and has now chosen to join the BYU program. Ranked as the No. 9 point guard nationally in the class of 2024, Crawford is a dynamic, three-level scorer who can immediately compete for minutes as a key rotation piece in the backcourt.
“We are so excited to welcome Elijah and his family to BYU,” Young said in a statement. “He’s an outstanding young man … as one of the best point guards in his class, his ball-handling and playmaking fit perfectly into our program. We look forward to helping him grow his game in Provo.”
Crawford’s commitment is a significant boost to the BYU program, which has been on the rise under Young’s leadership. With Crawford on board, the Cougars now have four open scholarships to work with as Young and his staff continue to fill out the roster.
