I hope this quiets the crowd that says Prohm cannot recruit transfers. Yes, he has not had much success with graduate transfers, but that market is infinitely tougher now then when Fred and Matt A. were the only games in town willing to take them.
Shayok and Jacobson are going to be at least contributors, as much as maybe the best player on the team (the former) and a potential starter (the latter). Nixon is going to be the heir apparent if Wigginton leaves after next season or at least solid depth.
If he can keep making strategic additions from the sit-out market, particularly the sit-one/play-one that other schools are less likely to pursue, on top of what he is doing with prep and high school players, we will have a very solid program going forward.
Just looking at the scholarship now is impressive for the class and positional balance that Prohm has rebuild, even if last year was pretty rough.
he seems strong and able to play through contact.
From what I’ve found Nixon played AAU w/Illinois Wolves and Liddell plays for Brad Beal Elite (and STL Eagles in the past). Plus Liddell is 2019 and Nixon was class of 2019 so idk how likely it’d be that they played together. However for that someone else we’re in on part, Mario McKinney also plays on Brad Beal Elite w/Liddell.I think you're right but I can't find the post. Something like Nixon, Liddell and someone else we're in on all played AAU together?
You realize the only other reported offers were from SMU, ILLinois State and Loyola, so not sure getting a commitment from Nixon necessarily indicates he is successful in recruiting transfers.

Yeah he defended Larry and even went as far as to say he was like a second father to him.I don't recall for sure, but I think he was one of guys who publicly supported Eustachy when that whole mess was going down at CSU.
Prohm's recruiting and relationship building landed Nixon before most of us had even heard of him. His former coaches tweet was ominous and hopefully just a tease of what is to come. Anyone still on the fence about his recruiting just doesn't get it. It's chess, not checkers.
Package deal w/McKinney & Liddell? And yeah from what I’ve seen on Twitter it seems like EJ & THT are buddies.![]()
I think I might have had my wires crossed on Nixon and McKinney. I just remembered there being some potential package deal there with Liddell.
I think Horton-Tucker and Liddell are pals, too, right?
He might be talking about thisElaborate? Even if rank speculation. What else is this place for now?
What is with the massive knee brace in the picture? I hope it is completely healed and not another Hans situation where the knee is a nagging injury.
Good get and a valid 2019 need that puts Nixon in the right place for additional development during the sit out year.This is actually a very good pick up for what is a need

From watching his highlight videos, his offensive game looks similar to Hallice Cooke (Oregon State highlights). Hallice just wasn't the same after the surgery at ISU.Can anyone make any comparisons to recent cyclones?
