Haha. I didn't doubt that. Just wanted to throw the links out there for others who don't trust something some Augie guy would say/post.

What you see and hear in LasVegas stays in Las Vegas. I trusted your Twitter links they reliable.
I don't think this kid was ever interested SDSU. Just my take.

- In honor of the final State of the Union speech tonight. -

Instead of hope, try changing your thought process and send coach Nagy and Klink your thoughts on the kid. I emailed them info on two Nebraska young men today. One sophomore I know has multiple mid-majors interested and the freshman has a higher ceiling. I fully expect to hear from them soon, as they have in the past. Coach Stig has always been very responsive too. Just don't expect more than a thank you as they can't share details about potential recruits that they are looking at.

Nidaros shared his perspective in another thread that followed this same line. Except he was sending newspaper clippings to a former football coach in the 90's.

Yes that was before cell phones and the internet, but I think most coaches are glad to receive any information about a prospect. Granted there are tons of services out there that Gopherhole and UWM and SDSU use to keep the recruit threads up to date, just plain observation, especially from a radio announcer is of value. Its worth an email. Emery has produced some good basketball players over the years. One of them is my Urologist in Sioux Falls. He said he played on one of their championship teams and later at USD. So no doubt still a good basketball school.

Re: 2015 Recruits

I didn't see a category for 2019 recruits, but I saw a really good freshman play last night when I called the Bridgewater-Emery vs. Ethan game. His name is Sawyer Schultz... I'm not usually one to brag up on a player, but I think this kid is the real deal. Good speed, nice touch with the shot, good court vision and he'll pick your pocket cleaner than a hood from Brooklyn. I hope Coach Nagy has his eyes on him.

Re: 2015 Recruits

Would he have been happier with his original commit (SDSU)? I guess we will never know. Matt seems to pick up a lot of D1 transfers and someone reported sometimes he clears other guys off the team to make room.

According to the story, he was the fifth guy in a rotation of three positions. If my memory is accurate, 3 of 4 were former recruits that we went after hard - Wes Washpun, Matt Bohannon, and Paul Jesperson.

Re: 2015 Recruits

I was hoping he would have become a Jack, but clearly has some issues. Wonder where his next destination will be?

Re: 2015 Recruits

I hope Arias Austin learns from this and can move forward. UNI is a great mid-major program and he has a very good future if he can learn from this.

That said, I'm thrilled with Tevin King as a combo guard! He appears to be a high character guy with strong commitment and is an outstanding player. He could have transferred and starred at some of the high profile Chicago schools, but chose to stay at a school known more for academics than for basketball. The following recent tweets and Chicago Tribune story highlights what kind of man we are getting.

SJNMA Basketball@SJNMAbasketball May 15 @Tevinking_3 we thank you for the maturity & enthusiasm that you exhibited in every task you faced! You will always be a Lancer! Best wishes

Tevin King @Tevinking_3 May 15
A man should always finish what he start! Thanks to SJNMA BASKETBALL for everything. @SJNMAbasketball
