Perg Zags Blog:
The No. 8-ranked power forward in the Class of 2021 out of Dream City Christian (AZ), Tchikou has done Zoom calls with New Mexico, Ole Miss, Virginia Tech, Arkansas, Florida State, Alabama, and Oklahoma State.
The 6-foot-11 French native said he speaks with head coaches from Washington, Alabama, Arizona, Florida State, Oregon, Arkansas, and USC “the most.”
“I talk to over 30 schools a week, but I probably talk to those head coaches the most,” he said.

Doesn't sound encouraging.

Doesn't sound encouraging. But he slipped in a virtual visit to UNM, still no word on SDSU. Our coaches can not comment on recruits, and I haven't seen anything on Zoom meetings, Facetime or video conferencing for any recruit. We have 12 strong scholarship players, but lack height/depth in the front-line. |

Schools scheduling virtual visits with 5-star Alex Tchikou, assume we're no more than a long shot in this race.

Personally I dont think we have a shot at Alex Tchikou, he appears to be more interested in p6 schools than any mid-major program. Rivals.com has him at 33 offers so far, nationally from A-W, Alabama to Wyoming and from east to west, UMASS to SDSU and everyone in between. Stan, I think that we were 50%/50% on Anselem, but about 3% to 5% likley on Tchikou. (Some say if we didnt pick up Tomiac, Anselem may have signed earlier, who knows?) n.rivals.com/content/prospects/2021/alex-tchikou-249785 |

would trend to agree doubt we will be in the final group for Alex . Had hopes for Frank but seems we have difficulty signing the highly rated guys that want to play the 5/4 position .

Alex Tchikou is switching classes from 2021 to 2020
"Also key in his decision to move to 2020 is that the majority of the schools recruiting him would like to take him now rather than waiting another year.
Tchikou has a list of finalists that he will be releasing within the next few days and won't try and overthink things when it comes to what he is looking for
"Style of play," said Tchikou. "Relationship with coaching staff and head coach, and have a chance to play as a freshman."

Interesting. We don't have a ton of playing time... but he could certainly come to SDSU and compete. But plenty of playing time is up for grabs esp. the following year.

If we were able to land Tchikou, we could have the best SDSU class ever? A.Tchikou C.Evans K.Dinwiddie L.Bulter or M.Pope Z.Cheatham T.Kell K.Zabo |

Don't think anyone knows how many minutes Nathan is going to be able to play - had been playing maybe 20 when he was healthy - so there could definitely be PT there for Alex -
style of play and coaching staff - think most guys have liked the way Dutcher and the staff set up the offense - plus they are known as players style coaches

Doubt we're one of the teams pushing him to reclassify to 2020 so doubtful we're in the mix. Hope I'm' wrong.

Doubt we are seriously involved as it seems he has other programs higher on the list. I’m sure the staff would love to sign him tho
