Basketball: Provo junior likes BYU, Washington State
Kyle Collinsworth, the 6-foot-5 Provo High junior basketball star, has a list of favorite schools, according to an article on the Rivals.com Web site written by recruiting analyst Jerry Meyer.
It is a short list.
Although Collinsworth is a long way from making a decision, Meyer notes, Washington State and BYU are presently in the lead in his recruitment.
"Washington State is a big one for me," Collinsworth told Meyer. "I went to their elite camp this summer and like them a lot. And then BYU is right across the street from me."
As we mentioned on this blog previously, head coaches from WSU, BYU, Utah and Utah State have visited Provo High to look at Collinsworth (and teammate Brandon Davies, in some cases) the past month, along with assistants from Cal and Stanford.

BYU football coaches have scholarship offers out to fewer than 10 high school football players (seniors) who have not accepted them yet, and one of those players is Steven Fanua, a linebacker from Milpitas, Calif.
Fanua recently went on his first official visit, to Cal.
The 6-foot-1, 205-pound senior was accompanied by his parents and he said he was impressed with Cal coach Jeff Tedford.
Fanua is scheduled to visit BYU on Jan. 10. He also had a trip scheduled to Fresno State in December.
