Mark Tollefson, a 6-foot-9 center from San Francisco, committed to Arizona on his visit and will be eligible immediately, a source confirmed to SNY.tv.
“It just felt right,” he told Evan Daniels of Scout.com.
Tollefson averaged 14.0 points and 5.4 rebounds last season with the Dons.
He will provide frontcourt help for Arizona, which has lost Stanley Johnson, Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and Brandon Ashley to the NBA, but will return center Kaleb Tarczewski for his senior season.
ASU ADDS OLEKA
Arizona State head coach Bobby Hurley continues to make waves in recruiting.
The Sun Devils added Obi Oleka, a 6-8, 235-pound freak athlete who originally committed to Texas out of high school. Oleka, currently at Cecil (MD) College after last playing in 2013-14 at State College of Florida, is eligible immediately and will have two years of eligibility.
“I picked ASU because the program is about to make a huge leap coming up this year with Coach Hurley as the new head coach,” he said by text. “This team will be special. I think I bring a lot to the team such as toughness, scoring, rebounding and leadership.”
Arizona State earlier on Friday landed Buffalo transfer Shannon Evans, who must sit a year and will have two to play.
