hhcmatt Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) Good to be in the mix, but I'm more interested in being in the 'final one' for high-caliber recruits. Guess I'm not patient enough.... We'll see how this goes but this might be a one and done type kid when it's all said and done. It's a major upset right now if we land this kid over a Kentucky or Kansas. We didn't even make it to a twitter graphic with Jahlil Okafor. One & done, really? Wow,.that changes my opinion.... We'll see if he lives up to that hype but he's one of only two freshmen to make varsity for Simeon in the last decade. The other one was Parker. http://www.dnainfo.com/chicago/20141210/chatham/simeon-freshman-kezo-brown-joins-jabari-parker-elite-company Edited April 1, 2015 by hhcdimes durrrr Quote

Norm Peterson Posted April 17, 2015 Report Posted April 17, 2015 2018 is a long way off. Ed Morrow and Glynn Watson will be seniors when this kid is a freshman, and they haven't even started college yet. Quote
AuroranHusker Posted April 17, 2015 Report Posted April 17, 2015 2018 is a long way off. Ed Morrow and Glynn Watson will be seniors when this kid is a freshman, and they haven't even started college yet. Very true... gotta enjoy prospective good news, though! Quote

Holy crap. What's the record for a thread? Even if he committed tomorrow, that's still a damn long time to wait for a kid and we'd blow by 20 pages in a blink in time. If he doesn't commit until November of 2017, though ... Quote

lanigan123 Posted April 17, 2015 Report Posted April 17, 2015 Would likely be the hugest rated recruit in Nebraska basketball history and the highest male athlete since what Ahman Green? Quote
ShortDust Posted April 17, 2015 Report Posted April 17, 2015 We have a few years to keep waiting for this guy. We are firmly in his top 5 right now. If morrow succeeds here and miles can continue to attack chicago and most importantly win some games and make it back to the tournament 2/4 times we have a chance. This guy really respects morrows thoughts and opinions. Silverbacked1 1 Quote
uneblinstu Posted April 19, 2015 Report Posted April 19, 2015 Would likely be the hugest rated recruit in Nebraska basketball history and the highest male athlete since what Ahman Green? Not quite and we've still got a couple years to go: Ryan Boldt was the #15 recruit out of high school. Marlon Lucky was #13. Baker Steinkuhler was #37 Quote
HuskerCager Posted April 19, 2015 Report Posted April 19, 2015 This thread is starting to remind me of the Okafor thread a couple of years ago when he visited our facilities. Sorry folks, but this sounds like we have a lot of folks engaging in pure fantasy. Quote

ajb5856 Posted April 19, 2015 Report Posted April 19, 2015 This thread is starting to remind me of the Okafor thread a couple of years ago when he visited our facilities. Sorry folks, but this sounds like we have a lot of folks engaging in pure fantasy. Pure fantasy saves a Husker fan. It certainly does. While Kezo is still a long shot, this scenario differs from the Okafor visit in that we were Kezo's first offer. And if we get him here for a visit it will be because he is actually considering attending school here. We were not Okafor's first offer (not even close) and although he visited here, he was never seriously considering us. We are actually in a position to land players like this now. Not that we will, but we are in a position. Back when Okafor visited, just because his homies were, it was like, oh my god I can't believe we have this type of player stepping foot on campus.

And I think it's safe to say if he ends up being a top 10 player we won't land him. The minute someone like Coach K comes calling he will forget quickly who his first offer was. Quote
Norm Peterson Posted April 20, 2015 Report Posted April 20, 2015 Well, as long as he's not committed to someone else and still has us in his top 5, a fella can dream, right? Quote
49r Posted April 20, 2015 Report Posted April 20, 2015 We're in it until we're not. Heck, Creighton fans thought they had a realistic shot at Tum Tum Nairn up until the day he committed to Michigan State...how's that any different than this? Quote

We'll see if he jumps up over the next couple of years. Quote
Bugeaters1 Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 What is known about this kid, other than what the the write up has on him. Quote
