Re: 2015 Recruits

Akoy Agau transferring from Louisville. 6'8 PF from Omaha. Would have 2 1/2 seasons left to play if he transfers in... Could he fit? Actually met him in passing in Louisville a year ago - seems like a nice kid - he was certainly aware of Coach Nagy and Jacks basketball.....

My guess is Creighton and Nebraska will be the frontrunners for his services.

Re: 2015 Recruits

Read today over 50 players transferring mid-year similar to Marshall a year ago. Anyone think jacks could bring on another transfer?

I understand what you're saying BigTicket, but at least this makes sense. UNI is a really good program. Tough one to lose. Time will tell if it's the right decision.

When a kid located 100 miles from campus doesn't even get a visit until 5 days before signing day and only after the coaching staff noticed he committed to another program , it would appear that he obviously wasn't option A,B or even C for the Panthers.

Re: 2015 Recruits

We supposedly have an offer out to Dainan Swoope , a PG from Kansas. Does anyone know if he is still an option ?

Re: 2015 Recruits

Marshall was one of over 400 transfers. That might be a good place to look again. Sit a year,and be ready to take over when George moves on.

Re: 2015 Recruits

PG is a tough sell right now for this program. You need to find a kid who is willing to give up his freshmen year completely or redshirt. I never expected Gibson to pick UNO (because well, they are UNO). A JUCO kid can't sit for a full year either. It's odd but when you have a PG with Marshall's pedigree it kind of hurts a program like SDSU more than say the Gophers because a lot of kids pick SDSU to play right away whereas you may pick the U knowing you will most likely sit.

That being said, I'd rather wait on a PG than settle for someone who just fills a need.

Re: 2015 Recruits

The early signing period begins tomorrow. We had a pseudo-commitment for about 45 minutes last week but now have no players (that we know of) ready to sign on the dotted line. It has been eerily quiet recently on the recruiting front. Is this a case of the coaching staff being in on players that we don't know about , or we recruiting players that are waiting to see if they get bigger offers and may not commit till spring ?

I hope we wait until after the season. If we can win 20 games, win the summit Touney I think we could get better recruits.

Re: 2015 Recruits

Gibson committed to UNO last night.

Re: 2015 Recruits

Verbal commitment is not binding in any way, shape or form. It like the promise ring you gave to your first girlfriend. That said, I'm not interested in hearing about this kid if he isn't interested in being a Jackrabbit. JUCO and CC players are JUCO and CC players for a reason. Doesn't mean they aren't decent BB players or not worthy of recruiting. Situations like this are common place with these types of recruits, they often play or commit to multiple programs and in the end most often contribute very little. Just one man's opinion. Good luck to AA somewhere else.

I did not think it was binding, but to keep on recruiting after giving a verbal seems to be a ethical decision, which I would hope we would stop recruiting. For the most part, I believe we do that. It appears to be ego problems here based on what little we know.
