Looks like his recruiting is heating up with recent offers from Providence, Texas Tech, and Georgetown

 

He's from Finland, currently playing at Western Reserve Academy in Ohio where Oleg spent a year transitioning to the US

So . . . how does Nebrasketball's pitch to him go?

"We've got lots of people at your position, but we think you are a great fit"?

"If you redshirt, you will be in a great position to fight for lots of playing time"?

"No one can have enough depth at your position"?

"You could be a rich-man version of Derrick Walker . . . doing everything he did in his unique role, but with a three-point threat added"?

Chance to eventually be recruited by Steve Forbes at his next school

Seriously, Steve Forbes' job is really easy when it comes to recruiting...just see who Nebraska offers then swoop in at the last minute.

"Seppo Evwaraye was successful here, proving that someone from Finland can fit right in in Lincoln."

 

"Three of our four interior players are coming off of surgeries or injuries.  One only has a year of eligibility left, and the others are in their fourth or fifth year right now so may not return the next year.  Your second year, you will be in line for a lot of playing time."

 

"We've got the Japanese Steph Curry, why not come here and turn into the Finnish LeBron James?"

how does a guy like this fall under the radar? 6'8 230 and can run the fast break and shoot 3s. 

Dunno, hopefully he falls to us though.

Do the eyeballs pointing to Texas Tech mean anything?
