Stanford made its first big splash in the recruiting class of 2018, gaining a commitment from four-star shooting guard Cormac Ryan, according to Jeff Borzello of ESPN, citing a source.

Ryan marks a key component in the program Cardinal head coach Jerod Haase is looking to build after completing his first season at Stanford. The 6-foot-5 guard is ranked No. 55 on the ESPN 60 for the class of 2018.

Stanford finished with a 14-17 record last season in Haase's first year at the helm, and is looking to make its way back to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2013-14 when the Cardinal finished tied for third in the Pac-12 with a 23-13 record.
