Back on Aug. 3, 2016, the BYU basketball program landed a big commitment when Christian Popoola Jr., who spent one year at Lone Peak High School, announced that he had pledged to play for the Cougars.
On Saturday, the 6-foot-4, 190-pound guard, who now plays for Bishop Gorman High School in Las Vegas, officially became part of the University of Utah's program.
