Red Rum Posted February 18, 2013 Report Posted February 18, 2013 It wouldn't shock me at all if he and Rosenthal poke their nose in on occasion. It'd be a pretty simple way to get the pulse of a fairly significant portion of the fanbase. And by significant you mean the portion of the fanbase that is knowledgeable and super awesome right?

trickey Posted February 18, 2013 Report Posted February 18, 2013 See above edited 1st post...to now include: Hey ____, Thanks for the catch. It appears to be a glitch in my system, I'll have to look into it. In the meantime I'veremoved the offer. Thanks Again! Paul Quote
TheGov21 Posted February 25, 2013 Author Report Posted February 25, 2013 I would almost guarantee Robin Washut wouldve been all over that offer. They confirmed during the Oak Hill weekend he ONLY held a Utah State offer at that time. And Washut has indeed confirmed that such an offer has not been made. Thurman really doesn't seem to fit NU's needs at this time, so an offer at this time would be kind of odd. Other than Verbal Commits, I have not seen any indication that Creighton has offered, either. Not sure where the site got its info. I wouldn't say that he doesn't fit. This to me looks like they might be waiting to see how his grades are. Because he has the talent to garner some offers from Power 6 schools. A lot of these Central guys minus Akoy and TreDon have issues in the classroom. Quote
FredsSlacks Posted September 18, 2013 Report Posted September 18, 2013 didn't seem to matter for matt hill or Akoy. how can you make that comment when your former teammate went to the top bball team in the country? Quote
colhusker Posted September 18, 2013 Report Posted September 18, 2013 If the grade issues I have heard about are true, not saying they are, that might be harder on recruiting. Quote
Creighton Fan Posted September 18, 2013 Report Posted September 18, 2013 If the grade issues I have heard about are true, not saying they are, that might be harder on recruiting. I think this is a fair point. Schools are not going to invest a lot of resources in checking you out if it seems unlikely you will be able to get qualified or are not currently qualified. Get eligible first. Then worry about trying to get attention from colleges. Quote
hhcmatt Posted April 30, 2014 Report Posted April 30, 2014 According to Eric Berehns, Thurman is being recruited by lower level Div I schools and hasn't been contacted by Nebraska. 12:30 mark http://www.theticketfm.com/podcasts/gaskinsstephens/2014_04_29_2_EricBehrens.mp3 Quote

Section_316 Posted April 30, 2014 Report Posted April 30, 2014 Both guys basketball wise, could play for the Mavs. I think both guys could in time, play for Miles. We will see where they end up. Quote
Norm Peterson Posted April 30, 2014 Report Posted April 30, 2014 We're clearly not recruiting this kid. I think he's irrelevant to us. Possibly move this thread to the college basketball forum since he's not anyone we're recruiting. Now or ever, apparently. Quote

Chuck Taylor Posted June 16, 2014 Report Posted June 16, 2014 I don't claim to be a recruiting expert, but Thurman looked good to me. Good athlete who can shoot from outside. Maybe there were other issues, but I'm surprised he didn't get better offers. That's not a knock on UNO, glad he's staying in the area. Neebraska 1 Quote
Norm Peterson Posted November 26, 2014 Report Posted November 26, 2014 Congratulations to UNO for having the foresight to offer and land this kid. Treshawn Thurman. True freshman at UNO. 6'7", 220#. Rivals ranking: not ranked. No stars. Season averages: 20.7 minutes, 9.7 points, 5.7 rebounds, 54.5% from the floor, 40% from beyond the arc. Leon Gilmore. True freshman at Creighton. 6'7", 210#. Rivals ranking: #134 in the top 150. Season averages: 5 minutes, 0.6 points, 1.4 rebounds, 0.00% from the floor, 0.00% from beyond the arc. I know it's kind of early and the sample size is small, but the early returns are looking good for UNO on this comparison. Wonder if they'll ever get to play head-to-head? Quote
Chuck Taylor Posted November 30, 2014 Report Posted November 30, 2014 It bears repeating (from myself ), surprising he didn't get better offers. Not surprised he's doing well at UNO. Quote
TheKamdyMan Posted November 30, 2014 Report Posted November 30, 2014 It bears repeating (from myself ), surprising he didn't get better offers. Not surprised he's doing well at UNO. If he had done better in school he would have gotten better offers. He was an 11th hour qualifier and most schools were done recruiting at that point. Quote
busticket Posted November 30, 2014 Report Posted November 30, 2014 That makes sense. He obviously had the goods on the court coming out of highschool. Quote

If he had done better in school he would have gotten better offers. He was an 11th hour qualifier and most schools were done recruiting at that point. Still, it's shocking he didn't have more offers. I recall posting sometime last year that whatever team we were playing that night could use him as he'd be as good as any of the players they already had. I don't remember who we were playing, but it's probably somewhere upthread. I am glad UNO got him. I just remember thinking that a lot of teams were missing the boat by not offering him.
