Navin R. Johnson Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 #Nebrasketball has offered 2018 #Rivals150 PF Nate Roberts (@nateupnext) of Brewster Academy.… https://t.co/C6q0tZvM1Q Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swan88 Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 Here is an article out of Syracuse on their offer to Nate Roberts, from back in April. Here are some blurbs from the article: Smith said most recruiting sites claim Roberts is 6-7 or 6-8. "He's all of 6-10 and probably pushing 6-11," Smith said. The Brewster coach describes Roberts as more of a prospect than a polished product right now. Smith would prefer that Roberts display more physicality in the post, but appreciates the smoothness of his game. "You certainly see glimpses that he can be a special, special player down the road," Smith said. "He moves so well for somebody who's 6-10. And he can step out and hit the outside shot."

BugeaterZ Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 He's every bit of 5-11. Closing in on 45 years old. Interestingly enough he used to look quite a bit like Tom Cruise. That was before Cruise stopped aging, though. Cool thing is he's my cousin. What's that? You say this is a different Nate Roberts? Guess I won't get any free tickets. ?

Norm Peterson Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 Brewster connection. He retweeted a Thomas Allen tweet. Also a lefty. Runs the floor pretty well but a little too finesse near the basket from the extremely brief video I saw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your cousin sounds like a perfect fit for the system Creighton runs. #letitfly #theyalreadyoffered Silverbacked1 and 49r 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if we land this particular guy but this is where basketball is going and where we want to go. Swan88 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rwhiston Posted July 21, 2017 Report Share Posted July 21, 2017 Perhaps this tweet was directed at his Brewster teammate. I love Roberts' play. Especially that midrange shot and ability to rebound. Sure he could stand to gain some lbs, but that will come. He's got what Jay Bilas loves, and that is wingspan!

Norm Peterson Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 Well, I can help him narrow his list real quick like. Would you rather be the Husk-er or the Husk-ee? Clearly, you'd rather be the one doing the Husking than the one getting Husked. Amiright? I'm right. bigFRED, Cornhoopers, Haymarket Husker and 3 others 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigFRED Posted July 26, 2017 Report Share Posted July 26, 2017 Wake Forest will be tough to beat I think by the sound of it and how he says we joined late doesn't sound too promising. But could the Copeland/Gill/Allen Brewster connection be enough again?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
