In May 2014, Georgetown landed a commit from Queens Village, New York by the name of Jessie Govan. Govan had spent time at St. Mary’s High School and Wings Academy, upping his profile as a four-star a center and the third-best player in the state of New York in the Class of 2015. It was quite good company at the time, as the two players who stood in front of him were Kansas commit Cheick Diallo and Indiana commit Thomas Bryant.
Flashing forward to 18 months later, Govan took the floor for the first time as a member of the Hoyas.
