  • I’m a fan of this. The top NSIC players can play in the Summit. I think we need to do more of this going forward. Still needing some additional size/athleticism on the roster for defense/rebounding.

      I know the kid from Wisconsin high school basketball … he played at Lake Country Lutheran high school. A very good mid-sized school. The kid was/is a phenomenal athlete … QB of their state championship football team. Best player on their 2X state winning basketball team. I always thought he would’ve been a better collegiate FB player than BB player. But he is arguably one of THE best high school athletes I’ve seen in a decade.

      He succeeded at LCL bball because there was no one who was as strong and as quick as he was … played SF and just overwhelmed his opponents but I thought those advantages would narrow in college … not real tall, maybe his shooting has improved.

      The kid is tough, physical, extremely capable, strong as an ox and arguably the best athlete on any court. Shot 28.9% from 3P range, not elite but decent.

        Would like to see the 3pt percent better but I trust the coaches. I like seeing low 30s at worst for those taking a fair amount of attempts.

          I agree especially at the lower level he was playing at.
          I do know this he will work on it.
          Helluva defender, slasher kind of player.

          • Maybe he can dwarf into the next Charlie Easley.

              Not sure it is a fair concern but if he succeeds I could see him onto Nebraska or Iowa. 3rd school in 3 years.

                      Bummer. Thought it was maybe a long shot but was holding out hope he'd come home. Wilkinson is really good but we need more size down below and on the perimeter both.

                        Don't forget we have Squires as well, similar big body build as Damon.

                          unless I am missing someone on the way in, those 2 are really all we have for big guys. wonder if there would even be any hope of bringing Barnhart back? he is not a superstar, but he is a useful player
