hhcmatt Posted October 6, 2018 Report Share Posted October 6, 2018 http://www.verbalcommits.com/players/d-andre-davis We're the first power 5 team to offer so we're in on the ground floor. 6'4" Lots of people have video of their dunks. This kid has video shots of his socks (if you watch the one below you'll understand) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean Smith Posted October 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2018 The video says the new Iceman but I see someone else who was pretty smooth himself. Now in no way am I saying they two are equivalent, they just have similar styles and form. So I'm not saying they are the same. For instance, not once on the video did I see this kid make a choke sign to a fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huskerpapa Posted October 6, 2018 Report Share Posted October 6, 2018 I smiled watching the video. He has a lot of James Palmer in him. He can get shots off at different angles, he has that smooth extended (almost slow motion) jumper, he has fluidity, his length causes problems on the defensive side. He looks to be a good fit.

MichHusker Posted October 20, 2018 Report Share Posted October 20, 2018 Potential for a very long commitment. Hopefully he really is 100% in and can act as a recruiter for us moving forward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khoock Posted October 20, 2018 Report Share Posted October 20, 2018 I look forward to someone with more basketball knowledge than me breaking this kid down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hhcmatt Posted October 20, 2018 Report Share Posted October 20, 2018 This is our first Indiana kid since Bear Jones. I think his dad is his AAU coach He has me thinking Aubrey Dawkins (who we tried to recruit before he went to Michigan) though I need to do some more research Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
49r Posted October 21, 2018 Report Share Posted October 21, 2018 Ever notice how all these kids who tweet pics of their OV or Commitment to the Huskers are wearing the script Huskers jerseys? We gotta make these the full time hoops jerseys. IMO. HolyBobpilgrimage and Swan88 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrill as Davis gets a defensive rebound!!! Be astonished by Dre's socks! In all seriousness though I couldn't be more pleased at this commitment. God bless Coach Lewis!

If you read on the posts were from a larger thread where the guy was watching the Indiana Elite 2020 play and he pulled all of his Davis observations into its own thread. Also, the guy making the posts is an admin of the site so he must really know his stuff and is probably handsome. 49r, Dean Smith, ShortDust and 4 others 1 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huskerpapa Posted October 22, 2018 Report Share Posted October 22, 2018 Two comments sort of jumped out at me. Perhaps for no reason, but they did: I still like Leal (who just scored 5 quick points himself), but Im starting to think Davis is the more talented recruit there. Leal is probably the more typical Butler guy of the two though. He’s the more fundamental player. I don't see a lot of info out there on Davis but his upside is off the charts. He showed great athleticism, shooting, and defense. Of all the 2020 guys I saw I think you could make a legitimate argument that he will be the best of any of them. He showed NBA level upside.
