The WAC basketball world on Tuesday

We might have posted this before but just in case: Midnight_Ploughboy at the Scenic West Conference message board on the Juco Junction site has posted that former Boise State (Greg Graham) recruit Mason Sawyer is at Snow College in Ephraim, Utah . He's a point out of the Utah high school ranks who went on his LDS mission right out of high school and returned this year.

Blue Zertuch of the Rivals TexasHoops site is reporting that 2012 backcourter Phil Forte has an offer from Boise State as well as many other colleges. The 5-foot-10 Forte is out of Flower Mound, TX.

Here's a description of the young man at the DFW Basketball News site after the April 2010  Great America Shootout:

"This prospect is just a winner...  He shot lights out from the 3pt area. He kept his team under control during close games.  Either getting a bucket or hitting open teammates for wide open shots."

Here's something from Jerry Meyer of Rivals after a July 2010 event:

"Phil Forte  (Texas Assault 16-U, 2012) - Forte did a nice job handling the basket against DC Assault's defensive pressure. He also did a nice job finding the bottom of the net. Often a beneficiary of [Marcus] Smart's penetration and passing, Forte knocked down six three-pointers in the game for a total of 20 points."

Forte's father is the coach of his high school team.
