Vandal men add Lake Roosevelt big man

Ty Egbert, a 6-foot-8 forward from Lake Roosevelt High in Washington, has signed with the University of Idaho. Egbert is the No. 5 prospect in Washington and the 40th-best prospect in the West, according to ESPNU Recruiting. Egbert's coach, Brad Wilson, told me earlier in the day that Egberg "has always gotten better" through his high school career. The current senior has started at Lake Roosevelt since he was a freshman. "I think he'll be a real asset (to Idaho)," Wilson said.

Added UI coach Don Verlin, "It’s great to get a Northwest big man of Ty’s quality. His upside is enormous and his a young man who wants to be good. Brad Wilson has done a great job developing Ty into a dominant high school big man.”
