Jaxon Kohler Joins BYU After MSU Exit | College Basketball News

Jaxon Kohler, the towering Michigan State forward, has officially flipped his commitment to BYU — a move that shakes up college hoops. At 6’10” and 245 pounds, Kohler was a sought-after transfer after leaving MSU, where he averaged 12.5 points and nearly 9 rebounds last season. He turned down Kentucky’s coach Mark Pope — who had recruited him out of high school — opting instead for his home state of Utah. With MSU’s roster full and a fifth year of eligibility granted via the NCAA lawsuit, BYU is now set to welcome Kohler alongside stars like Rob Wright III and Collin Chandler, building a formidable core. Meanwhile, Kentucky eyes Missouri’s Mark Mitchell as a potential late addition. The Cougars are suddenly loaded — but will they need more depth?
