Small Forward

My apologies - this was definitely a BB offer! Posted it on the wrong thread!!

Another SF David Reddy, 6'4", 240, Mpls (Breck), MN I sure like the 240 lbs - he wouldn't be pushed around!

Another PG offer: Andre White, 5'9", Elgin (Harvest Christian), IL Has offer from NIU

New offer: Ath Mike Coble, 6'2", 175, Byron (Byron), MN

Another: SF Ed Chang, 6'7", 180, Papillion (LaVista), NE Has offers from NE, Creighton, St. Johns & IA (the IA offer may no longer be out there). He has grown a lot lately so started with guard-type skills. Apparently has lots of potential as noted by his other offers.

Another PG offer: Jovan Blacksher, Jr., 6'1", 155, Phoenix (Shadow Mountain), CO Has offers from UNC, Fresno St, UC-Davis & CS-Northridge As a sophomore, Blacksher averaged about 16 pts, 6 assists and 5 steals per game at the 4A level in AZ.

Lots of offers ('18 & '19 for both M & W). I think Wiki is up-to-date. If not, let me know!

After a few days of traveling, I think Wiki is updated with the new prospects & offers, offers from other schools, etc. If I have missed anything, let me know!

Another: PG Tyreke Locure, 5'10", Des Moines (North), IA First offer - scored 26/game as a sophomore!! First team 4A all-state!

It sure wouldn't hurt sending one or more of the UND assistants an e-mail providing them with his name, address, etc. I am sure they would be interested in following the young man's progress. Sometimes a young guy can mature into a good prospect in a relatively short period of time. Being 6'6" at 15, he might have a few inches yet to grow. Is he playing AAU BB this summer? The coaches' e-mail addresses can be found at UNDsports.com.

Another offer: SF Gaven Pinkley, 6'8“, 200, Hillsboro (Hillsboro), MO Has offers from Vermont, Air Force, Loyola (IL), Mo. St, Drake, NIU, Oral Roberts, UIC & CMO St.

Blair has offers from Cleveland St, NIU, SIU, American & EMU

Nice size for a PG - 5'10". Didn't average a bunch of points (9/game) but sounds like a really good player. Coached at Centennial by former Sioux BB player, Travis Bledsoe.

Well said!

No specifics except I think an early season tourney at a very desirable location will soon be finalized

BB coaches are busy - another offer: PG Desi Carton, 6'2", 180, Davenport (Bettendorf), IA

I talked to Jones last night at the Champion's Ball. There is no question that his full focus is on next year and recruiting. I would guess his extension will be announced soon. Faison has had a couple of deaths in his family lately and has not been in town much - that is probably slowing the process.

I assume you are referring to Hedstrom - I know we are interested in him but I don't think we have made an offer.

New offer: SF Quinn Blair, 6'6", 205, Dearborn (Divine Child), MI

New offer, his first: Josh Aune, 6'1", 195, 4.5, Virginia (Secondary), MN (3 Star - 247)

New '19 offer: PF James Betz, 6'7", 210, Garner (Garner-Hayfield), IA This appears to be his first offer. He was 3rd team 2A All-State as a sophomore.

I agree with you but understand that Walters specifically asked that he not be redshirted. When a player is a long ways from home, it is often better to grant his request rather than take the chance that the player leaves the program because he wasn't fully engaged. I do not know if the same situation may have applied to Brown. From a pure player development perspective, they both certainly should have redshirted to gain weight/strength, learn the system, etc.

Tons of positive posts from a bunch of prospects who attended today's Jr. Day. Three known offers: LB Seth Benson, 6'1", 190, Sioux Falls (Washington), SD TE Cormack Sampson, 6'5", 225, Eau Claire (Memorial), WI WR Blake Veargis, 5'9", 145, Miami (Norland), FL. Has 15+ offers There will be a bunch of new prospects added to Wiki tomorrow.

I agree - I am sure everything is under control to the degree that recruiting is not being negatively impacted.
