Olympus Titans Jeremy DowDell (0) licks his lips during the game against the Timpanogos Timberwolves during the 5A boys basketball championship tournament at the Dee Events Center in Ogden on Thursday, Feb. 28, 2019.

HOLLADAY — BYU's latest men's basketball pledge wasn't granted a scholarship and doesn't have any plans to seek one.

Olympus sharpshooter Jeremy DowDell tweeted out late on Monday that he was 100 percent committed to Mark Pope and his program, and in an interview on ESPN960 let it be known how uniquely committed he is.

"For me, a scholarship has never been super important," he said.
