Bio
2018-19 (Freshman):
"Kirac is one of the highest recruited prospects in the country and I am humbled, to say the least, that he committed to us. Aside from Kirac's game, which is phenomenal, I was most impressed with his character and the way he carried himself. Kirac was always very polite and respectful throughout the process and this goes a long way. For me, this is a priority, aside from only recruiting talent. I am confident that Kirac will blend in smoothly with our culture of excellence. I am looking forward to helping him develop personally off the court as well as physically on the court."
