He should be a hot commodity by next year.  Its nice to have him so close and make a visit now to try and lock this one up by next fall.

What makes you say that? Just curious never heard of Williams before. He will have 3 to play 2? Like his size + shooting numbers but always wonder about juco competition

I can say that Iowa Western plays some quality competition and they are a good team. Would be an interesting addition to Pinder. Or would he be this year as a 3 to play?

When a guy that still has another year of juco to finish is getting a lot of interest it means he's "the goods". In basketball most juco guys don't gain interest until their final year in school because teams usually only use jucos to fill a void that you don't usually know until that year. So if the schools he listed are truly interested now then he will be highly coveted next year. His high school churns out basketball players on a yearly basis.

6'9 220. Williams is a physical specimen who plays hard at both ends. He is a very good rebounder in his area and he possesses soft hands. He runs very hard in transition and can finish with a strong dunk through contact. His offensive game has improved.

 

sounds good to me.

According to his interview with Robin Kansas State and Fresno State have standing offers.  He's getting heavy interest from Kansas, Louiville, Iowa, Oregon, Washington, Oregon State, Marquette, Iowa State, Florida State, and Creighton.

A recruiting battle with Doc Sadler?

When you put it that way, i like our chances.

Kind of a long trip from St. John Bosco in California to Iowa Western....

[Norm Peterson]

Wow!  Holy cannoli!  This kid is a true freshman and, according to NJCAA, he's averaging 16.4 pts and 7.0 bds.  That's pretty damn good for a freshman.  And he's shooting almost 42% from beyond the arc!!!  Is there any chance at all that he can take summer school and graduate by August and be here and eligible with 4 to play 3?  And is he really 6'9" and 220#?

[Norm Peterson]

Love to see some game film on this kid.  I found a choppy (I wish these promoters would quit trying to make these videos fancy with all the stop-action effects and such.  Just show the film.) video of him from HS where he looks like he's pretty active and has some nice posting moves.  Good quicks, good agility, aggressive going at the basket.  What I see so far, I like a lot.

[Section_316]

I do too Norm… Plays hard and is uber athletic and can stroke & his jacked!!

If he could, he probably wouldn't be there in the first place.

Holy cow.

Title is a little misleading... Forfeited regular season only due to suspensions following bench clearer. Will still play playoffs... Didn't name specific players.

[Swan88]

Any sightings of Mr. Williams tonight?

[uneblinstu]

[TheKamdyMan]

I heard it was because he showed some real toughness in the bench clearing brawl. Miles said we need another big that can bang tonight in his presser.

[REDZONEDAN]

I think he was sitting in section 103 row 2.

Yup, the rest of the regular season is two more games.  The OWH NEEDS YOUR CLICKS!
