"He has had a very accomplished high school career and we think he can have a very accomplished college career. We look forward to helping him develop and mature.

"Bogan has great hands, excellent court vision and great size. He comes from a winning program. We're excited that he is now a Redhawk."

Edgar indicated the Redhawks expect to sign a few more players during the signing period.
