2013-2014 Recruiting

[Teeder11]

As I recall, he got some time at point. I don't think he struggled to badly. Two things stood out to me about Hooker: (1) At 6-0, the kid has hops. He attempted a dunk and missed -- but not by much. He got over the rim. (2) He has a real knack for the assist and is clever with his dishes -- not reckless.

Also, the walk-ons surprisingly were not liabilities during their time on the court, especially Hobaugh. ( I think he was a walk-on transfer out of Houston Baptist.)

Glad to see we are winning battles vs augie!

[sioux24/7]

Oh man Mitchell Hahn committed to Holy Cross.

[sioux24/7]

Donte Ingram has committed to Loyola.

Pretty certain that Crandall and Cashman both signed their NLI yesterday.

Anyone know why UND hasn't put out any press releases for all the kids that signed yesterday? I know there was a handful in other sports, just wondering why nothing has been released yet.

The volleyball press release just came out in the past few minutes. Maybe they are just wanting to put out one or two releases per day? Not sure.

You could be right, maybe they just haven't put them together yet. I just assumed they'd announce them all at the end of the day yesterday or this morning. Must just be taking their time.

Here's the article with Crandall. http://www.twincities.com/sports/ci_24517693/college-signing-day-twin-cities-area-commitments

Have not seen an article stating Cashman signed his letter.

Have not seen an article stating Cashman signed his letter.

The KC Star lists him as signing yesterday along with some stuff on Twitter including the picture below:

Here's the UND press release on the new signees: http://www.undsports...TCLID=209308166

With still three or four scholarships remaining, I have to think there will be a couple of juco transfers signed in the spring.

Good article on Ngor Barnaba http://www.postbulletin.com/sports/localsports/barnaba-a-big-guy-with-a-big-target/article_8a057cb2-d036-5a77-92b2-d74568352ff4.html#.Uo9kmDmXr94.twitter

I am really hoping we can land him. We need some post presence. Hopefully we can get some JUCO players to ease replacing this senior class.

[sioux24/7]

Hopefully there were some recruits in attendance. I believe Crandall was.

[forksandspoons]

I'm pretty sure I saw at least one, either a commit or a recruit I'm not sure.

[balla45]

Crandall was there. At least 4 other recruits in attendance that I saw. 2 Williston State players and 2 high school players. The players that I talked to were very impressed by the atmosphere.

[nodak651]

what state were the hs kids from?

[balla45]

The ones that I talked to were both ND. One is a raw athletic 6'8" post. Likely a walk on. Other is a 6'2" freshman guard.

There could not have been a better game for recruits to come and watch, especially if some also had offers from NDSU which seems the case with a lot of the recruits we are after. Every player likes to score and watching us put up 95 points and averaging the same makes getting these players that much easier. Jones has formed a great foundation for the future with this senior class and what they have done for this university and the old saying is build it and they will come may hold true based on what this class has done and are doing right now.

Geno Crandall can really dunk for a guard

[sioux24/7]

Crandall and DeLaSalle will take on Apple Valley and Tyus Jones tonight. DeLaSalle will be playing without 5 star Reid Travis.

No kidding. I like what I see.

Apple Valley won, but Crandall had 23.

[nodak651]

He's gonna be a steal.

[UND92,96]

He's gonna be a steal.

Agreed. I think some were focusing too much on his stats from last year. That team was loaded, and this year he will really show what he can do.

[sioux24/7]

So 2 commits so far. 5 scholarships still available. Will we fill all those with this class?

They would like to get at least a couple of junior college transfers to even out the classes a little bit. It's hard when half of your scholarships are in 1 class.
