2017 Recruits

Re: 2017 Recruits

I really hope we can get Marty Hill and have been hoping for a while. He looks like a fun player to watch which is maybe something this team needs. I believe kids call what he has "swag."

David Jenkins Jr. was in Brookings on March 5th, recently followed Mike Daum and SDSU men's basketball on twitter, and tweeted at Daum when we won the SL tourney.

Re: 2017 Recruits

If Otz could convince Jenkins to sign on the dotted line, that would be a significant get. 6'0 3-star PG, ranked #54 PG in this class. The star ranking system doesn't necessarily mean everything, but in comparison I believe all the other recruits coming in our class are 2-stars.

Another point guard that can contribute will be the feather in the hat for Coach Otz. Orris did a solid job at PG in the second half of the season. Coach Otz will be working hard to make the second season better and another point guard will be a step for that improvement. Brandon Key could already be that player to lead.

I'm not sure if it's been mentioned, but according to Coach Otz, Dentlinger will be on a full academic scholly this year and then next year will be on an athletic scholly going forward.

As we have seen many things can change in a year.

Tywhon Pickford a 6'4 wing from Maple Grove MN is tearing up the State Tournament. He has had some injuries, but is now healthy and many school circling including Nebraska. SDSU had an offer out at one time and not sure if we still do. His teammate Brad Davison is headed to Wisconsin.

Duane Wilson, Grad Transfer from Marquette is going to Texas A&M. Some thought we may have had a chance since he is from Milwaukee.

Sounds like he is a very talented young man.

According to Scout.com had interest from Boise St., Montana, Pepperdine, St. Marys, Portland St. and Washington St.

Looks like a good get!

Re: 2017 Recruits

I'm curious to know if this is someone TJ met while at Washington (hometown is Tacoma, WA) or found through other means (currently attending Sunrise Christian Academy in Kansas.) If he did meet him while at Washington, that's pretty good for TJ to be remembered after all that time. Had interest from some pretty good programs and ones much closer to home.

Re: 2017 Recruits

The five high school players make up a very balanced class. You could argue that there is a player that fits all 5 positions, which hopefully pays off in a veteran starting line-up when they are juniors and seniors.
