FredsSlacks Posted January 12, 2013 Report Posted January 12, 2013 Robin Washut @RobinWashut #Nebrasketball 2013 power forward recruit Matthew Atewe also reportedly met with UNC-Charlotte's coaches today. haha. Now that just makes no sense. Is Atewe aware that we have zero experience next year at PF or C?
uneblinstu Posted January 12, 2013 Report Posted January 12, 2013 He said he's going to take all five visits. Let him go and see what those schools offer isn't as great as what NU has.
FredsSlacks Posted January 12, 2013 Report Posted January 12, 2013 He said he's going to take all five visits. Let him go and see what those schools offer isn't as great as what NU has. I know, but he should at least visit some other big schools. UNC-Charlotte did not make sense to me.

As a guy, if girls were hitting on you left and right, wouldnt you want to listen to all offers before you make your choice?

Norm Peterson Posted January 12, 2013 Report Posted January 12, 2013 I would love to see him burn an official visit at UNC-Charlotte. I'd be concerned if he burned an official visit at, say, West Virginia.

As a guy, if girls were hitting on you left and right, wouldnt you want to listen to all offers before you make your choice? ahhh no. There were two bulls standing above a field of fine looking cows. The young bull turned to the older bull and said, "let's run down there and get us one of those good looking cows!!!" The older, wiser and more experienced older bull turned and said, "son, I would rather saunter down there, and get me all those cows!!!" I have no clue how this applies, but I thought it was a good story
Huskerpapa Posted January 13, 2013 Report Posted January 13, 2013 A tweet from Atewe from earlier this week...by the way he now has 1009 followers. mattatewe41 I sorta play basketball..... #GIG #CYB 5 photos 29 followers UCONN game earlier this week
bball23 Posted January 14, 2013 Report Posted January 14, 2013 Reggie Rankin tweeted this morning that UCONN got a commit from another big. I wonder if that will help at all. I know Attewe has mentioned he would like playing time right away. So with them signing another big, maybe that helps us with Attewe if UCONN was really pursuing him.
FredsSlacks Posted January 14, 2013 Report Posted January 14, 2013 UCONN hasn't offered Atewe right? I would not worry until a big time school actually offers him.
TheKamdyMan Posted January 14, 2013 Author Report Posted January 14, 2013 I think he's just enjoying the process right now which is perfectly fine. I think nebraska is sitting pretty right now with the early playing time, facilities, coaching staff, chance for a quick turnaround etc all being favorable for him.
Daledangdarn Posted January 15, 2013 Report Posted January 15, 2013 Watching the UCONN game tonight, I cannot believe how many empty seats there are. Apparently it takes one mediocre season to have fans not come.
bball23 Posted January 15, 2013 Report Posted January 15, 2013 Attewe and Pitchford were tweeting back and fourth...Attewe then said "How's Nebraska" to which he said "Check your inbox" Hopefully he says good things and is enjoying himself at NU.
Norm Peterson Posted January 15, 2013 Report Posted January 15, 2013 bball23, have you been to the games? I ask because I don't know where you're from. But if you go to the games, watch Pitchford. He's having a blast in Lincoln. I think Pitchford is one of those guys who enjoys himself wherever he is. He clearly has a strong rapport with some of the other players, particularly the walk-on kid from Nebraska City, from what I've been able to gather. Those two seem like they ham it up together a good bit while they're sitting there/standing there waiting for starting lineups to be introduced, etc. From the way things appear, I would say that Walter Pitchford has come into Lincoln, Nebraska and made some friends. And, therefore, if he's tweeting with a potential recruit and you're wondering if he's saying nice things about the place, I would say that chances are pretty good that he is. NeeandMe 1

"Rhymes with Alaska."
Norm Peterson Posted January 15, 2013 Report Posted January 15, 2013 BTW, Kline tweeted that yesterday, in a conversation with Atewe, that Atewe was going to commit to a place that rhymes with Alaska.
Huskerpapa Posted January 15, 2013 Report Posted January 15, 2013 BTW, Kline tweeted that yesterday, in a conversation with Atewe, that Atewe was going to commit to a place that rhymes with Alaska. Then pull the trigger dude, commit and get on board the Big Red Express!
seaofred92 Posted January 15, 2013 Report Posted January 15, 2013 Watching the UCONN game tonight, I cannot believe how many empty seats there are. Apparently it takes one mediocre season to have fans not come. Game was in the XL center, not on campus. There's way more seats there than in the on campus stadium. We're still on winter break so there probably wasn't a ton of students there.
Norm Peterson Posted January 15, 2013 Report Posted January 15, 2013 BTW, this is an interesting tweet from Atewe: "If ur not a college coach and you got "coach" whatever as ur twitter name....ur absolutely lame." Who does that? Has "Coach" whatever as his twitter name but isn't a college coach? Wonder who he's talking about. Alex Kline wanted to retweet it.

Red Rum Posted January 15, 2013 Report Posted January 15, 2013 Yes lets please not get into this discussion again. We pretty much know everyone's stance.
GATA Posted January 15, 2013 Report Posted January 15, 2013 Alex Kline has been tweeting with Atewe and has made some not-so-subtle comments that he thinks Atewe is going to Nebraska. "Rhymes with Alaska." I hope people clicked on Alex Kline's name. That's a pretty incredible story. And it sounds like he knows what he's talking about.

Sorry, couldn't help myself.
FredsSlacks Posted January 15, 2013 Report Posted January 15, 2013 What are everyone''s expectations of Atewe if he does get here? His videos kind of concern me, but there must be something to him if he has over 30 D1 offers. Vucetic had some big offers too, but I had no idea what to expect from him because he had no high school videos.
