2015 Recruits

Re: 2015 Recruits

I'd like to target a December transfer like Marshall, I've always liked those transfers as they work with the team for a year, but you don't lose an entire season of them.

As for Tevin King, there is very little info on the guy and what I can find is hard to digest. On his 2014 recruiting news I've found high interest but no offers, but in 2015 after prep school he had interest and offers from numerous mid-majors (SDSU, NDSU and other Chicago area schools).

I don't have a clue either way, all I can say is best of luck

Here is what I got from Roy Schmidt of @prepbullseye; he is one of the go to guys for Chicago area prep basketball

Roy Schmidt @prepbullseye
@joeboo22 @Tevinking_3 Good player--great speed/can attack basket/good ball handling skills. Nice back court combo w/ him & Gentry.

Re: 2015 Recruits

Didn't realize Tevin King was still in play for a scholarship, but he appears to be a good get for the program. From the limit highlights I've seen (all of which were of him in high school, not the prep school he attended), he seems to play strong and most-likely would have the ability to play both the 1 and 2 positions. This will help out our 2016-17 point guard situation, as now we won't be putting all our eggs in one basket (though, once again, I like Gentry's game).

I would guess the chances of landing Poydras has went down quite a bit (without knowledge of another defection), as he'd have to be a non-scholarship player for a year. Wouldn't completely rule that option out, however, because if he's intent on going DI and doesn't get another DI school to offer, he may still chose that option.

It looks like we will be set at the guard positions for the next four or five years. The only question will be how the 2016/2017 transition from Parks/Marshall/Moffit will be handled. Do we still have a spot for Poydras or will the two 2015 guards be thrown into the fire?

With at least three scholarships available next year and with Marshall,Parks and Bittle all leaving , it wouldn't surprise me if the Jacks try to get a good JUCO guard that could come in with some experience.

Re: 2015 Recruits

King looks like a good get.

All things equal, I'd rather get an incoming freshman who can play for four years over a transfer who only gets two or three.

Between him and Gentry I think we are in good shape for 2016 after Marshall and Parks graduate.

Re: 2015 Recruits

Imagine Baker out?

The man of few words is probably right this time. I think Baker is out. UNI will most likely get him or one of the others. King will work for me. Good get for SDSU.

Re: 2015 Recruits

Maybe there's a way to work it. Roster shake ups, pay own way a year - a number of things.

He comes to SDSU from the same program Lawrence Alexander came to NDSU. Here is a link with more info....

Re: 2015 Recruits

Hard to read much , either positive or negative from that statement. Is he our top target for the Broman scholarship ? We have been mentioned by two or three other players and am wondering how they rank as far as priorities , or if it is a case of the first one to commit gets the spot.

There could be numerous factors in, the media says offer, but even in basketball (much more so in football) there are different offers. It could be an offer where he walks on next year and gets the scholarship his senior year. It could be a flat out offer, it could be an offer for the team, with a scholarship if available (if no one else commits).

As for how the process goes when there are numerous offers out at the same time? Many times its generally the first one to commit, however, they have to call and ask the coach if the offer is still there, before committing. Many times, if coach feels he is close to getting someone else who is a better recruit, they might pull the offer at any time.

So essentially, its confusing, and nothing is official until the NLI is signed.

Do you have the need to know? That was always the criteria in the Naval Security Group, so I am not being serious in asking this question. I suppose this procedure could vary depending on who is needed and who is available. I suppose there is some kind of a priority system that probably is changing from day to day.
