Always keep in mind that college sports recruiting is as fluid as a politician's public pronouncements. That is, it's change du jour. Here's a kid being eyed by Nevada and Utah State as well as others.
From The Kennel Report, a site with excellent information and analysis on all things Gonzaga:

Interview with 2009 Recruit Devonte Elliott and Coach Mark McGarry
The 2009 recruiting season has been very past faced with a number of twists and turns. A player who has appeared on the Gonzaga radar relatively recently is Devonte Elliott. The athletic forward from California had a very impressive summer of AAU basketball and has elevated himself to a high-major prospect.
Our correspondent was able to catch up with Devonte and his coach Mark McGarry earlier today. Hope you enjoy.
The Kennel Report: Devonte, what schools have offered you thus far and how much interest have you been getting?
Devonte Elliott: Nevada, George Washington, Gonzaga, UTEP, and Utah State Lots of interest from a lot of schools... Go here for the complete interview.
The Nevada interest may fade since the recent Steven Bjornstad commitment but possibly not. That may be dependent on how oft-injured Richie Phillips holds up this coming season and also how freshman Ahyaro Phillips develops.
Utah State could certainly use Elliott but we sense there's not a solid connection there. In another post, Elliott offers that Gonzaga, Nevada, George Washington and Alabama will be on his visit list with Utah State in the unsure category.
