He looks more like a Hoiberg 4 than a wing. 6'8 HS jr with good frame, the ability to drive and lefty with range out to the 3-pt line. This kid looks legit.

That's a whole lotta and-1 opportunities.  Suffice to say he's physical enough for B1G play!

He came up with a creative way to explain how much he enjoyed his recruiting trip, credit to him for that at least:

World-Herald had an update on his visit:

 

Quote

“I keep on coming back to Nebraska’s energy,” Cole said. “It's amazing to me how everyone is stuck together, how they all like playing for each other. That was really good.”

Liked his visit, but doesn't have a list of finalists yet. He loved PBA.

Gotta think Our Roby & Banton NBA hybrid body type is a major sell here.  This kid is that sort of prototype matchup problem.
