Per 247Sports, the 6-foot-6 forward received attention from multiple schools in Utah, including BYU, the University of Utah and UVU. By the time of his commitment to the Aggies, Templin reportedly had scholarship offers from UNLV, UVU, Abilene Christian, Incarnate Word, Indiana State, Louisiana, Sam Houston, Toledo and UMBC. On his social media accounts on Oct. 17, Templin said he’d narrowed that list to Utah State, UNLV and UVU.
According to the Dallas Morning News, Templin averaged 14.2 points and 9,3 rebounds in his junior season. The same publication also named Templin District 10-5A MVP for 2021-22. He was also named Defensive Player of the Year in his district as a sophomore in 2020-21.
Utah State now has three incoming players for its 2023 class. Aside from Templin there is guard/forward Garrison Phelps and forward Dallin Grant, who will return from his LDS mission and begin playing with USU next year.
