Basketball: Tyrell Corbin one of best of Utah class of 2011
I had a chance when I was in Las Vegas last week to talk to Utah Jazz assistant coach Tyrone Corbin about his son, West High junior-to-be Tyrell Corbin.

Tyrell, a 5-foot-11 guard, will be one of the most-recruited players in the state next summer (assuming his father stays with the Jazz). Tyrell helped West win the 4A state championship last spring in a stunning upset of Kyle Collinsworth-led Provo.

"Ty is starting to get recruited by a lot of different schools," Tyrone said. "He doesn't really know where he wants to go yet. He is getting a lot of letters from a lot of schools."

Tyrell played for the A-Train Snowbears in the Reebok tournament in Las Vegas.

Corbin said Tyrell had "a great visit" with Utah's coaching staff earlier this summer and that the Utes are showing him some love.

"He was supposed to go down and look at BYU, too, but we didn't get the chance once he got out of school and before we went back to South Carolina for awhile. But he will be a junior in school, so he will have that chance, I am sure."

Who are the other top prospects from Utah in the class of 2011?
Brighton High 6-1 guard Corbin Miller and Box Elder 6-4 guard Brant Mecham are at the top of most lists.
