Northwestern basketball target Cormac Ryan commits to Stanford

After a tough showing in the 2017 cycle, Chris Collins is 0 for 1 in the Class of 2018.

Cormac Ryan, a four-star guard from Milton, MA, has committed to Stanford, he told the New York Post. Ryan chose the Cardinal over Northwestern, Michigan, Notre Dame, Villanova, and Yale.

Ryan, who has been shining for the New York Rens on the Nike EYBL AAU circuit, was seemingly one of Collins’ top priorities and there was plenty of momentum towards him coming to Northwestern.

According to the story, Ryan cited Stanford’s combination of academics and the chance to make an immediate impact as reasons for his decision.
