Former Arizona point guard Alex Barcello is reportedly transferring to BYU, but will probably have to sit out a year

Provo • New BYU basketball coach Mark Pope has apparently found a replacement for TJ Haws when the all-conference point guard concludes his career next spring.

Former Arizona basketball player Alex Barcello is transferring to BYU, according to the Locked On Cougars podcast on the Zone Sports Network.

Barcello, who announced on social media in June that he was leaving the Wildcats’ program, will have to sit out a year due to NCAA transfer rules and will be eligible for the 2020-21 season. He will have two years of eligibility remaining.
