BYU Recruiting Update (11/16/24)

AJ Dybantsa

A.J. Dybansta (6’9” Brockton, MA, Utah Prep) made waves this week as he confirmed with various outlets that he would make his decision on December after previously planning on February.

"The original plan was to commit in February," Dybantsa told ESPN. "The visits stopped in October. We wanted to make sure we had enough time to see all the schools play. We are ahead of where we thought we would be. If I know where I want to go, why wait?

"It's probably going to be in December. I feel I will be ready by then."

Dybantsa is expected to be at the Marriott Center today as BYU hosts Idaho.
