PITTSBURGH -- The Pitt Panthers have one final scholarship to fill for the coming season and they have an idea of who they'd like to fill it. The good news for them is that he is interested in potentially joining the team as well. 

Mike Sharavjamts, a transfer forward from Dayton otherwise known as "Mongolian Mike", listed Pitt in his top five alongside Indiana, Memphis, Nebraska and San Francisco. Joe Tipton from On3 was the first to report the news. 

The 6'8 and 180-pound rising sophomore who played his high school ball in Ohio, held offers from Eastern Washington in addition to the Flyers coming out of high school. He was a unanimous four-star recruit rated as high as the No. 1 player in Ohio and No. 46 prospect in the class. Both ESPN and Rivals ranked Sharavjamts inside the top 100 of their 2024 prospect rankings. 

Sharavjamts appeared in 32 games for the Flyers during his freshman season, averaging 5.6 points, 1.9 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.5 turnovers per game while making 38.8% of his field goals and 31.5% of his 3-pointers over 23.1 minutes per contest.
