Idaho State Gets Commitment From Geno Luzcando

Last week, Idaho State got a commitment from guard Geno Luzcando from Utah. I saw it first reported by Michael Clay of RM Hoop Review:

Last season, he averaged 12.7 PPG, 5.4 RPG, 4.1 APG, and an astounding 4.9 steals per game. From that same link, here was a scouting report from an opposing coach:

“Geno is one of the most athletic players I have seen this year. The first time I watched him play was against West Lake; he stole the pass at the wing and took it the length of the court and slammed it hard. I just looked at my coaching staff and said, "How do you want to guard this guy" He is another versatile weapon on the Wasatch Academy roster.”

As an already excellent defensive player, he should excel playing under ISU coach Bill Evans. Evans is a great teacher of defense. With a big recruiting class coming in this season, Luzcando is another nice piece to the puzzle as the Bengals rebuild. Luzcando should be a big contributor who will fit in nicely under Evans.
