C Elbert Robinson -> LSU

[Norm Peterson]

One thing I like about Elbert is his soft hands.  From what I've seen, he appears to have touch.  Which means if he can get a shot in close, he's not as likely to clang it off the iron as what we used to complain about with Aleks Maric.  The other thing about Elbert is that he's huge.  And fairly mobile.  And being that huge and mobile, it'll be tough for anyone to keep him away from getting in close.

@JWagner11W: '14 center Elbert Robinson will officially visit Ohio State on Sept. 28th for the Wisconsin game. Highly rated big-man. (Via the Dispatch)

Look no further, Elbert. We're your school.

It states that there is a good chance that we will bring in two more recruits on our list for either official or unofficial, those being Deng and Bolden. Says that Deng is most likely to come on official.

Says Elbert and Deng are to sign in Nov and Bolden will probably wait til spring after and see where his recruiting process leads him. Top priorities seem to be Robinson, Bolden, Deng. He thinks Nebraska will take two in fall and one in spring. Which makes you think that two players would be gone after the year.

Thanks man.  So Wacker is looking like a fall back option at this point?

I think Deng is ours to lose, just from brief updates I've read.  Robinson and Bolden will obviously be very tough to pull off

I think both Deng and Wacker are both locks if we want to take them. I'm hoping the haul we would bring in would be Robinson, Bolden, and Deng. Don't get me wrong, three out of these four though would be amazing to add with Hammond!

Are you saying that we will take 4 total? So 3 this fall and 1 in the spring. Or 2 this fall (counting Hammond) and then the 1 in the spring? If we are just talking 3 total then only 1 underclassman currently on the roster would need to go.

[ShortDust]

I was thinking that we end up with 3 in the fall including hammond, but 2 seems more realistic (including hammond) and then one in spring. My gut is telling me that we take Wacker, Deng and then Robinson goes to osu. I don't have a clue who would be committing in the spring. Bolden would be awesome, but I bet he goes to an elite school. We had a better chance if he would've stayed overseas, just like we did with Tai.

Okay Husker fans show Elbert some love

@ElbertRobinson8: I need a 1,000 followers before the end of today

[Norm Peterson]

I'd be OK with Hammond and Robinson signing this November and then Bolden signing in the spring.  That's the way I have it mapped out.  OK, coaches, git'r done.

I agree Norm, wouldn't be upset at all, I can possibly see Wacker coming into the mix as well though. Just not quite sure what Miles will tell him on the in home visit. I guess only time will tell.

I would also tell Elbert to have the staff take him to the new Brazilian steakhouse, but i don't want him to put that 40# back on.

[Norm Peterson]

I talked to someone and get the impression Wacker would be N if he had a commitable offer.  Let's just say we leveraged our connections with institutions of interest to the Wacker family.  Turns out Coach Miles and the Wackers have something in common besides basketball.

You think Elbert should get a Brazilian while he's here? 

 

I mean steak.  Brazilian steak.

[ajb5856]

go follow him people

Yeah seriously. He wanted 1000 by the end of the day and he's gonna have over 1000 within an hour of his tweet.

[ShortDust]

He's already at 1003. He will get a ton just from being here!
