Austin Grandstaff: G 2015 target

[kldm64]

#Nebrasketball is showing early interest in 6-foot-4, 4-star 2015 guard Austin Grandstaff from Rockwall (Texas) High. http://t.co/LOR1NFV5

thanks for the heads up. I really hope we can get one or two of that parade of quality players we've been giving guided tours to this past offseason.

Based on who is interested in him...he must be a stud.

I didn't read anything in the link which would indicate a desire to play basketball in Nebraska. Why would a kid from Texas want to come here unless he has some family tie to the midwest or a relationship with one of our coaches? We can't even get prospects in our own back yard to come here so far so I hope someone can elaborate on any reason for this kid to show an interest.

Texas doesn't have room for everyone

Wishing and hoping, Jimmy. Wishing and hoping.

The belief in TIM MILES...he has that certain magic..(the new facilities are a major plus).I saw this happening with Bob D and football...but here it comes again...that feelin'...Tim M will make this happen! It may take 3 years from now...but he has the formula 4 success!

He also might see that Rick Barnes loves to squander talent and lose to Chaminade.

Im curious to see where he ends up.  He was at 3 different schools his sophomore year.  He started in texas, transferred to a prep school, got home sick after just a few weeks, then came back to texas at a different school.  He has a couple years to mature but I have a feeling location will play a role in his final decision.

[Huskerpapa]

I have a feeling that our newest assistant(s) will have a substantial influence on who we recruit in 2015.

[HuskerCager]

Miles really seems to like the state of Texas.  I wasn't expecting that when he came here.

He's from Plano and maybe knows Rex Burkhead, who might have put in a plug for us??

[Nebrasketballer]

Austin Grandstaff goes to the same high school as another Nebraska 2015 target.

There is a thread going about him already

He was from Rockwall, TX, transferred from there to Huntington Prep in WV, then transferred and moved to Plano West HS in Plano, TX.  My guess is no even though Rockwall is only 45 minutes.  He may have heard about him but that would probably be the extent.
