2016 PF Jeriah Horne - Signed

[Huskerpapa]

He looks like a stud.  I think we are going to like this kid. 

[Norm Peterson]

 

Is it just me or does his body style/play kinda look a bit like Denzel Valentines?

 

Same program but feel his game, body type, etc reminds me more of this former Spartan.

 

 

How many people saw the Draymond Green photo and instantly became even more enthusiastic about this Horne kid?

What's crazy is how similar they are at the same stage. Same height, almost same weight, similar skill set at this time, heck almost identical rating on Rivals. If he even comes close to half of what Draymond did I would be ecstatic.

CWG, I think you're absolutely right about that, and I don't think you have to go back to a year or two ago.  I think if you look at pictures from this summer and compare to recent photos (which I would post if I knew how -- I'll try, though) you'll see a guy who looks slimmed down.  No wonder colhusker thought he looked thinner in person.

 

Then:

 

(The picture won't post, but imagine someone who looks decidedly rounder.)

 

Now:

 

Maybe that is why Norm, I was expecting a bigger kid.

Interesting talk from K-State fan tweeting:

Physically, he looks a lot better than I was anticipating. Is he mainly a PF or do we think he could play the 3 too?

I'd take it.

 

I'd take that in a heartbeat.

 

Now, if only Jeriah's last name was Red.

 

curious what jeriah's wingspan is. draymond has 7'1.25 wingspan which allows him to play basically any position on the court.

I'm glad to hear Miles can beat Bruce Weber for a recruit.

[jimmykc]

and that Lincoln might be a little more attractive to a recruit than the Little Apple.

If he doesn't win it, it had better go to Michael Porter, if not, I want a revote

Wasn't Kenny Snarker that 5 star kid from some 1A school in KC that we just missed on?

Sounds like a player at Crayton.

His half of that trophy will look kind of nice in the old dorm room.

He can win the other half in the dunk competition

Is that the Marcus Walker who played here for like a season?

I was wondering the same!

Yes it is.  He eventually made his way to CSU and played for Tim Miles there.

[busticket]

Ended up playing for Miles? Wow, small world.
