The 6-foot-6 Springer has an interesting recruiting story. He played his first three years of high school ball at Shadow Ridge in Las Vegas. Before the start of his senior year, he transferred to the more highly touted Desert Pines in hopes of playing his senior year there.
Due to transfer violations, Springer was forced to sit out his senior year. Subsequently, recruiting attention waned and he fell off the radar for many programs.
In an area with top high school talent, Springer was one of the best players in Las Vegas his junior year. An ESPN 3-star recruit, Jerell averaged 20 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 steals, and just under 1 block per game.

Re: Jerell Springer visiting BYU
I've never heard any updates on him after the visit. So I'm guessing we don't hold our breath. Or maybe they are just waiting for the Mika decision so they know if there is another scholarship available.

Jahshire Hardnet seems to fit better with what they need and has at least some college experience. But they may still end up with both anyway.
