2025 C Tommy Ahneman -> Notre Dame

[Navin R. Johnson]

6' 10" center from Fargo, North Dakota.  Top ranked player out of that state. Nebraska was one of his first offers. Many Big Ten schools have offered.

Tommy blew up the last few weeks. Good blood lines…mom played hoops and golf at NDSU and dad was an All-American LB at NDSU I believe. Grandpa is in the NDSU HOF for football as well

[AuroranHusker]

 

Nebraska's already offered, and NU will be getting an unofficial visit from this Top 50 big man in the Class of 2025.

Ahneman has transferred to Cretin-Derham Hall in St Paul MN for his Senior Year. This of course is the Alma Mater of Former Cornhusker Great at QB Mark Mauer & his First Ballot HOF Nephew Joe “Baby Jesus” Mauer.

@Navin R. Johnson with the scoop...Notre Dame to the Big Ten conference starting 2025!

[AuroranHusker]

Impressive to having made the Top 5, for starters. Freddy seems to have a good chance to finish first, let's see how this plays out with on-campus visits.

[TourneyBound]

Would be a huge get!  Considering our luck with top High school big men I'm not super confident but hopefully we are turning the corner.  Seems like a perfect fit for Fred's system.

It'll be one of the 4 big ten schools I think. You can really make arguments for all 4 too. Idk which way this one goes. 

 

Minnesota idk about, I think his family is from the area and he goes to school there now. 

Wisconsin produces bigs like him and have for a few years. I do like Winter though and he's the likely successor to crowl 

Supposedly Iowa is pitching "you can be Luka Garza" which is cool in theory. Garza was also NPOY and one of the best offensive players to come through the conference. 

Here, he'd have a very real chance at backup minutes behind reink, and the offensive fit is natural. He'd be starting as a sophomore in an offense that can use him in a few different ways.

I didn't say that, unless it really happens, then that is exactly what I said.

Fred’s time in the Twin Cities is Our “Ace” in the hole & will help grease the wheels.

Tommy will be on an official visit to Lincoln this Friday along with fellow Top 150 recruit, Quentin Rhymes.

 

Tommy's recent tour of schools is as follows:

September 13 - Iowa

September 20 - Nebraska

September 28 - Notre Dame

October 5 - Minnesota

 

Most recent On3 predictions have him trending towards either Minnesota (32.3%) or Nebraska (28.2%).

That might be bigger than the bald eagle wingspan at the Lincoln zoo

Makes me wonder what Meah's might be...

I am going to put in my first ever basketballjones Crystal Ball prediction on this one... I think he is "N." His comments, on how he felt about the visit, seem like we made a real personal and emotional level connection with this young man.

Looks like he had a bunch of Notre Dame posters in his basement
