BYU football is adding some cornerback depth for the upcoming 2022 season.

Junior college cornerback Mory Bamba committed to the Cougar program on Friday, after taking a visit to the Provo school earlier in the week.

Bamba is a 6-foot-3, 190-pound cornerback who hails from Wisconsin.

He played the 2021 season at ASA College in Miami last season — where he had 14 tackles, six pass breakups and an interception — before moving on to Tyler Junior College in Texas, where his recruiting picked up, per Sports Illustrated’s Casey Lundquist.

He also held a scholarship offer from Utah State, according to 247 Sports.

Bamba is a member of the 2022 recruiting class and will have three years of eligibility remaining, according to Lundquist.
