USU's only bringing in one recruit, but it's a talented recruit.

Kyndahl Hill is a 6-foot-7 small forward from Texas whom the Aggies really like as an athlete. He's one of those long athletic guys that the basketball program has been lacking for years, in the mold of current junior Kyisean Reed.

USU will have him this weekend and will make its pitch. Teams like Pepperdine, Weber State, and UTEP are also interested, although UTEP just received a commitment this week from another highly rated small forward, so the Miners may not be as interested in Hill anymore.

Hill is also a two-sport athlete, and boasted Big 12 offers in that sport as well. No word on whether he'd like to play both sports in college or not.

This is certain: The Class of 2012, with Marcel Davis, Sean Harris, Riley Bradshaw and Quincy Bair, on paper, looks like the best class that Stew Morrill has brought in. Hill would just be another piece to that puzzle, if he were to commit.
