BYU is one of the final three choices for Texas Tech transfer Pop Isaacs, alongside Creighton and St. John’s, following the dismissal of a civil suit against him related to allegations of sexual assault.

By the Numbers
  • Isaacs made the All Big 12 Freshman team in 2022-2023, averaging 11.5 points.
  • As a sophomore, he averaged 15 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 3.8 assists but saw a decrease in shooting efficiency.
Yes, But

Schools must weigh the implications of the dismissed civil suit, as Isaacs and BYU need to ensure he can adhere to the honor code.

State of Play
  • Isaacs has ties to BYU through his high school years at Wasatch Academy and his father's admiration for the school and the state of Utah.
  • Richard Isaacs, Pop's father, is a significant influence on his interest in BYU, and his commitment could be heavily influenced by family ties.
What's Next

If Pop Isaacs chooses BYU, he could enhance the team's on-court capabilities by providing the ability to create shots and potentially filling a void in the backcourt.

Bottom Line

BYU's chances of landing Pop Isaacs are influenced by both on-court performance potential and off-court considerations regarding the honor code and personal ties.
