Jaylen Blakes appears to be the brother of 5* Mikalya Blakes, who would have been a brobdingnagian get for the women's team, but instead committed to Vanderbilt. Maybe he can convince her to transfer to keep the family together!

Quote:One of the top players in collegiate lacrosse over the past four seasons will compete for Stanford on the hardwood in 2024-25. Cole Kastner has joined the Cardinal as the program’s fifth transfer addition of the offseason.
“Cole is a local kid from Menlo who grew up rooting for the Card. He is a tremendous athlete that will bring an enthusiastic spirit to practice everyday,” said Kyle Smith, the Anne and Tony Joseph Director of Men’s Basketball.
Kastner was a two-time USILA second team All-American at Virginia with the lacrosse program in 2022 and 2024, while also earning honorable mention All-America honors in 2023, and he was also an Inside Lacrosse second team All-American and USA Lacrosse Third Team All-American in 2024. He was a two-time nominee for the Tewaaraton Award (2022, 2024), which is given to the top player nationally in college lacrosse.
“Although he has not played basketball competitively during the last four years, he has been a vital cog for Virginia’s lacrosse program. He knows what it takes to win a National Championship, and he understands leadership as he was a captain there as well,” continued Smith. “We are thrilled for Cole to bring his winning ways back to the Farm.”

Quote:Senior defenseman Cole Kastner — the men’s lacrosse team’s towering defensive captain who has for years menaced opposing offenses — announced Wednesday via social media that he is transferring after this school year. He is switching both schools and sports and will spend his final year of eligibility playing basketball at Stanford.
...
Kastner had talked to Haase’s staff during the basketball season, visiting a practice over his winter break and establishing communication. He also talked to the staff at California, where his father played football. But in the end, he emerged as the first transfer to commit to new Stanford Coach Kyle Smith.

Some old highlights from Menlo. He does look like he can play the game.

This thread needs some TLC.
Do we have signees for 2025 and are we done with 2025?
Is anyone interested in maintaining a list of recruiting prospects like we have for WBB?

Flipped a '25 PG from Harvard.

I've split the thread to make a 2025+ thread, at least: https://thecardboard.org/board/showthread.php?tid=25291
I think the right time in general to start the next year's recruiting thread is when the class is done (as far as we know). For WBB that's usually the early signing period. For other sports it may be later, say the late signing period, or the start or even end of summer quarter, etc.
