****Official Class of 2017 Recruiting Thread****
- Thread starter Cydkar
- Start date
Let's finish the class out strong. Hope they can add a JUCO Guard in Davion Cole-johnson to be a microwave player off the bench, another young big in Alexis Yetna who has a rebounding motor that is off the charts, huge upside, and a very high ceiling, and either DeQuon Lake who is a 6'10 post presence to help take some pressure off Lard and ease him into the rotation instead of throwing him right in, or Kyvon Davenport who is a freak athlete, and looks to be a great rim runner that blocks alot of shots and gets his share of dunks.
From the KU board:

I think he finished with 28 points, and he may have also been the best ballhandler in the game. Very powerfully built, I'm going to guess 230 lbs. if not more -- he would be getting playing time for KU this year. I read afterwards that ISU is recruiting him -- is that where Prohm went? I didn't see him, but it was a pretty big crowd.

That is one hell of a sentence!
Great to hear. I'm sure there will be some schools after this kid but Prohm is showing the love and we definitely have the PT to sell.
I wonder if we take Yenta and intend for him to redshirt. From what I've read he's still pretty raw. Also if we got him but didn't redshirt him we would have five freshmen next year, that doesn't help at all with balancing our classes
Lindell is a DUDE.

Oh, and let this sentence sink in with you.:
LiAngelo Ball got off a clean shot from that spot behind-the-arc that he’s so familiar with, but his 35th shot of the game ended up being his 27th miss.

I think the staff is going to be really selective with JUCOS and grad transfers to make sure they have the right fit.
"“He’s not like most of the kids today who need to put up their recruiting status on their social media,” said Playaz director Jimmy Salmon. “He’s old school, he just takes care of business. When he’s ready to announce, he will. He’s not interested in giving everybody a play-by-play.”
This could be a hard recruitment for some people on here

Juiston had a big game Saturday with CSP in attendance...
Whoops, sorry I thought I had quoted a post. but that is about Juiston from the article posted a page back. TBH, I think him having that type of mindset is a good thing for us. But if he keeps putting up the numbers he has been, he will continue to have people come knockin
