Always love getting a kid from Flint. They're usually tough players.
Jayden Nunn commits
- Thread starter CyTwins
- Start date
Welcome Jayden! 6’4” pg, and like the confidence. Looks like another good one!
Congrats and welcome to Cyclone Nation!
For some in this thread you want instant starters but then also get mad when they leave for the NBA and there's roster turnover. It takes a mix and nothing wrong with a kid that might take a year or two to develop.

Watched all the videos I could find on Jayden and here is my take. His high shooting percentage fits with a very clean shot and release. He also seems to be able to hit jump shots when he is off-balance, bumped, and stepping back which bodes well for adjusting to college. He is built well and was able to finish with contact in the clips I saw. Of course, they don't show you the misses, but at least when he had contact his body stayed in control and they weren't the made it falling to flow lucky shots.
Didn't see enough to get a good feel for his handle. Appears fine, but also didn't see enough to say that it is excellent either. Didn't really get a good feel for Jayden as a distributor either, just not enough in the videos to say.
Seems to play with an edge to him and his interviews back that up. Wish I could have seen a full game to get a better look at something other than highlight clips and get a better feel for his defense. Far too early conclusion...Don't bet against Prohm on identifying undervalued PG talent and surprised he doesn't have ratings and better offers at this point.

Yep. This dude will be a 4-year college player, someone ISU can depend on and build Consistency with.
Welcome aboard!
Welcome aboard!
Pretty much what people said about Tyrese when he signed.
Tyrese H.
The one from Wisconsin, I mean.
Yeah that's pretty douchey. You can critique Prohm on a lot of things, but I think identifying guard talent is something he's done a good job at doing.
Tyrese Hunter and Jayden Nunn now lets finish with Wesley Cardet, Hunter Sallis, and Chet Holmgren to bring Hilton Magic back. Alden Applewhite or Drew Williams seem like good SF also
Love all the evidence pulled citing “lack of toughness.” For it to be an issue this long it would seem it’s more of a problem from the leader on down if the team still lacks toughness.
I really like this guy. He's the type of guy that we need in this program if Prohm wants to save his job.
More than likely, he'll be a guy that will be in college for four years. Prohm needs to keep this guy on the roster with the guards from last class. The name of the game now is who can keep continuity while adding great pieces in the transfer portal.
Prohm's roster continuity and chemistry has been TERRIBLE since Monte and crew left. Hopefully is a tough SOB that plays defense and grinds it out.

No... Tyrese had an ISU offer, 2 big 10 offers, Cincy....even the Wyoming offer he had is better than anything Nunn has besides ISU. Tyrese also at least a 3* and was a top 30 player at his position. Just because he outplayed his recruiting rating doesn't mean he wasn't a good prospect. Nunn isn't even on the radar.
