OT: Somebody Recruit This Kid

[HuskerFever]

This kid was on Jimmy Kimmel Live awhile back showing off his trick shot skills. I thought it was pretty neat and didn't think much of it... until this video. Look closely and you'll see he's wearing a Nebraska t-shirt. For once, we can go after a kid who doesn't have Fighting Irish gear in his parent's basement.

 

Take a look:

Already a better half time show than the Shim Shams.

Doesn't seem to have much hair on his legs yet!

Plus he is some what local from the video it looks like they live around Wichita Kansas. And was wearing a Nebraska t shirt.

Got the chance to see this kid in person... Loved every minute of it... He knows basketball basics... Plus his form isn't terrible either

Great story, seems like a fun kid but his shot looks like a soccer throw in.

The form will come... lets see how he progresses when he gets out of dipers and pull ups before we start talking form.

Weren't you the one to mention his form?

Yes.  I am saying that his form is not bad because he is 2... For a two year old to even pick up a basketball and know what to do with it... let alone get it ten feet in the air, you can't shoot it like a regular basketball... to weak.  Thats the point I was trying to make.  His form is not bad for a 2 year old.

I'm going to hold out for Norm to break down his form

[Huskerpapa]

I love video's like this...very cool.

[busticket]

Wow.  That kid's brain is already dialed into the physics needed to make a basket....pretty safe to say he's a natural shooter.  Obviously it's a bit too early to know whether he will be big enough, quick enough, have good enough handles, etc. as he gets older, but he was wearing a husker shirt deep in Wichita territory so he's already good in my book!

[Nighthawk]

Lol...would the NCAA allow Coach Miles to start contacting this kids parents?

(recruiting violation?)

His form is terrible but it goes in, so what are you going to do? 

[Daledangdarn]

His dad is from Lincoln, was a state champion swimmer.

[jdostal]

Apparently Coach Krzyewskiyadf was in Lincoln last night checking him out.  We have to start protecting in-state talent.

[49r]

You mean Mick Krizilonski?

[Nighthawk]

Think Coach Krzyewskiyadf is the head coach for Mr. Mxyzptlk's basketball team. I could be wrong though.
