Top-50 guard Davis Fogle announced his commitment to Gonzaga on Thursday, giving Mark Few his first recruit in the 2025 class.

Fogle recently cut his list to Gonzaga, Creighton and Kansas - but he visited the Bulldogs' campus last weekend and quickly opted to remain in his home state for college. He had also taken a visit to Nebraska last fall, but the Cornhuskers weren't a factor down the stretch.

A 6-foot-7 wing from Arizona Compass Prep (Arizona), the Washington native is ranked No. 38 in the ESPN for the class of 2025. He was one of the biggest risers of the spring, moving up nearly 40 spots in the ESPN 100 due to his recent play at the NBPA Top 100 and Pangos All American camps, as well as on the Under Armour Rise circuit with the Seattle Select grassroots program.

At the NBPA camp, Fogle averaged 15.7 points, 6.0 rebounds and 3.3 assists, shooting nearly 59% from inside the arc.

ESPN National Recruiting Director Paul Biancardi compared Fogle to Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves.

Fogle is Gonzaga's first American high school recruit since the 2023 class, as Few landed four transfers and Senegal native Ismaila Diagne from Real Madrid in the 2024 class. But Fogle could be the start of a high-level high school group for the Zags in 2025.

Gonzaga is also targeting five-star guard Isiah Harwell (No. 13), an Idaho native who included the Bulldogs on his final list of four and took an official visit to Spokane during the season. Another player on their board is Nikolas Khamenia (No. 31), who has taken multiple trips to the Zags' campus.
