The Recruitment of Brody Kozlowski: A Game-Changer for BYU Basketball?
As the college basketball world continues to evolve, one thing remains constant: the pursuit of top talent. For BYU basketball, the recruitment of former USC commit Brody Kozlowski could be a game-changer. Kozlowski, a four-star recruit according to ESPN, has narrowed down his list to five schools, and BYU made the cut alongside Nevada, Cal, Stanford, and SMU.

Kozlowski’s journey to this point is a fascinating one. He initially signed with USC, but after head coach Andy Enfield left to become the head coach at SMU, Kozlowski requested to be released from his letter of intent. This decision opened the door to a flurry of offers, with over 20 schools vying for his attention.
“Brody started the game on fire and never relented as the Chargers are heading to the Semi-finals behind Kozlowski’s 39 points!”
As a standout player, Kozlowski led Corner Canyon to a deep tournament run, including a 39-point performance against American Fork in the semifinals. His impressive skills on the court, combined with his smooth jump shot, make him an attractive prospect for any program.

Kozlowski’s connection to BYU runs deep. His mother, Kristen Kowzlowski, is a former BYU women’s basketball player, and he currently works as a pregame and postgame show host for BYU basketball games on BYUtv. This familiarity with the program could be a significant factor in his decision-making process.
New BYU coach Kevin Young has made recruiting a top priority, and Kozlowski is his first high school target. Young’s vision for the program involves stretching the floor, moving the ball around, playing five-out, and shooting threes. Kozlowski’s skills align perfectly with this philosophy, making him an ideal fit for the Cougars.
