Huskerpapa Posted January 10, 2017 Report Posted January 10, 2017 ...let's say we have on open scholarship for this upcoming recruiting cycle. What position is should we be focusing on? I vote PG. We will have Glynn and Evan for next season, but who knows about the next? Quote
ShortDust Posted January 10, 2017 Report Posted January 10, 2017 I agree, pg is the only thing they should be going after, whether it's grad transfer or hs Quote
AuroranHusker Posted January 10, 2017 Report Posted January 10, 2017 PG #1 And, speculation is that Nick Fuller could graduate after this year so he can grad transfer to "play" one season elsewhere. But, mere speculation at this point in time... Quote
bigFRED Posted January 10, 2017 Report Posted January 10, 2017 Palmer, Copeland, and Nana coming in next year, losing Tai. Need a PG Quote
Jugular Posted January 10, 2017 Report Posted January 10, 2017 If we can finish the year strong we will look very good for a grad transfer guard with what we have coming back. Quote
ajb5856 Posted January 10, 2017 Report Posted January 10, 2017 Question. No disrespect to Nick Fuller and everything he's given to the program. But if he graduates, the university has paid for his degree, can't Miles just decide not to put him on scholarship next year? One year deals right? I'm not suggesting that Miles would be an a-hole or anything, but maybe a 'mutual' agreement to not take up a scholarship next year? Quote
big red22 Posted January 10, 2017 Report Posted January 10, 2017 Man I wish Kezo Brown was 2017, what a fit he would be!!! Combo guard that is lightning quick. It seems like we are shooting for our run here within the next 2 years, so Kezo Brown just happens to be in the wrong class I honestly want to hold the next scholarship for him, because he is a game changer type guard Red Don and AuroranHusker 2 Quote

Norm Peterson Posted January 11, 2017 Report Posted January 11, 2017 Sounds like Kezo has recovered from whatever medical condition caused him to have to sit out a year from hoops: http://www.suntimeshighschoolsports.com/2017/01/10/michael-obriens-notebook-jan-10-2017/ Quote Simeon 72, Vocational 49: Evan Gilyard with another big night, 24 points. Kezo Brown had 14 points, nine rebounds, nine assists and Madison Lowery added 12 points and five rebounds. From the prior game ... http://www.suntimeshighschoolsports.com/2017/01/07/michael-obriens-notebook-jan-7-2017/ Quote Simeon 80, Memphis Cordova 61: Evan Gilyard dropped 32. Kezo Brown had 18 and Messiah Jones added 12 points, 10 boards and four blocks. Jack Gleason brought up an interesting point tonight. Could the Wolverines go undefeated? Obviously running through the city and state playoffs is a massive task, but it doesn’t seem as unlikely as it should. He played as a freshman, sat out as a sophomore, and this is his junior year.

hskr4life Posted January 11, 2017 Report Posted January 11, 2017 Whose this Gilyard kid... he seems like he can either fill it up or he had two games of his life. Quote

hskr4life Posted January 11, 2017 Report Posted January 11, 2017 Ahh... bit by the Don Haskins bug. Quote
Norm Peterson Posted January 11, 2017 Report Posted January 11, 2017 Gilyard would be a high major player if he wasn't just 5-8. Quote
hhcmatt Posted January 11, 2017 Report Posted January 11, 2017 Are there any 2017 PGs in the state that are Div 1 material? bobcat402 1 Quote

Silverbacked1 Posted January 11, 2017 Report Posted January 11, 2017 Maybe we can all pitch in and help rent the u-haul for him. Red Rum, ShortDust and bobcat402 3 Quote
bigFRED Posted January 11, 2017 Report Posted January 11, 2017 Theres Greg Elliott, a summer rising player from Michigan thats 2017. He's known more of a SG/Combo but he's said that he can try to play more point guard in the future.. Seems worthy of taking a look at it in my opinion. http://www.scout.com/college/basketball/recruiting/story/1662729-2017-sg-greg-elliott-adding-offers Quote
khoock Posted January 11, 2017 Report Posted January 11, 2017 PG all the way. Our front court is crowded so I'd have assume that if somebody were to transfer it would be from that group. Quote
bigFRED Posted January 11, 2017 Report Posted January 11, 2017 And there's Darien Jackson from Kansas who would be a great get, but probably out of reach now. http://247sports.com/Player/Darien-Jackson-86141 Quote
bigFRED Posted January 11, 2017 Report Posted January 11, 2017 (edited) Last one I'll do is Isaiah Coleman-Lands from Indiana. Looks to have had some interest from Creighton in the past but looks like his recruiting has cooled down a little. http://247sports.com/Player/Isaiah-Coleman-Lands-79537 Edited January 11, 2017 by noahjb24 Quote
NUtball Posted January 12, 2017 Report Posted January 12, 2017 Going out on a limb and assuming he's related to Jalen Coleman-Lands who plays for Illinois and is also listed from La Lumiere School in Indiana? Jalen is a decent, athletic player - 3" taller, averaging 9 pts and shooting 40% from 3 pt as a Sophomore. Quote
bigFRED Posted January 24, 2017 Report Posted January 24, 2017 Another 2017 PG we should take a look at in my opinion is Jarkel Joiner. He's averaging 37 points a game in high school (according to Maxpreps) and he seems to have a cool recruitment so far. Worth a look? http://247sports.com/Player/Jarkel-Joiner-93595 Quote
