Something to ponder for AJ Dybantsa + Interviews with BYU CB Jayven Williams & Commit Tytan Dejong

BYU basketball star AJ Dybantsa has not formally announced the next move in his career. Many assume it will be the NBA, as he is projected to be the No. 1 pick in next June's NBA draft.

But Dallas Mavericks star Cooper Flagg offered an interesting perspective during an interview with Pat McAfee that Dybantsa should consider as he makes his decision.

KSL Sports BYU Insider Mitch Harper shared his thoughts. Also, in this episode of Cougar Tracks, Mitch broke down the performance of BYU basketball commit Bruce Branch III in the 2026 McDonald's All-American Game.

Then, he also dove into the NCAA, proposing potential suspensions and fines for "Ghost Transfers." Will this actually work?

Also, Mitch caught up with BYU cornerback Jayven Williams, a new transfer from Mississippi State. Along with a conversation with 2027 commit Tytan Dejong from Mountain Ridge High School.
