Re: 2010 Recruits

First off, I searched to see where Newton was talked about and SDSU coaches have watched him play, so I put it here. However, the OG kid got hit by an elbow at the beginning of the video and than the big elbow. Man, that had to hurt!

People just need to relax and if it it not interesting to you just move on and leaving a message is not necessary.

I started a new thread here: http://www.sdsufans.com/board/showth...642#post148642

Re: 2010 Recruits

Why is this in 2010 recruits, this kid isn't being recruited by SDSU is he? Shouldn't this be in "Around South Dakota" or something?

Re: 2010 Recruits

Neither are really "inside" guys. Dykstra could play with his back to the basket but I don't think he would prefer it. Heemstra is a face the basket offensive threat right now.

Both are tall and both can rebound but I think that is primarily because of their height advantage at the Iowa IA level. I'm not sure how well that will translate to NCAA DI basketball. I don't know much about either ones shot blocking abilities.

In other words, I don't think either one of them will be a solution to our weakness inside next year.

Oh. I was think at least one of them had the size to be an inside threat.

On one had that increases the chance one will redshirt next year then...but on the other hand, SDSU loses a lot of points scored in Garrett and Kai...I'd still like to see both RS, but that's probably not likely do you think?

Re: 2010 Recruits

Due to lack of inside presence, are we looking at one if not both Heemstra and Dykstra playing next year, instead of either or both redshirting?

Re: 2010 Recruits

They lost once to Boyden-Hull and Rock Valley beat them in District play 63 to 55. The other loss was to Bishop Heelan Catholic, Sioux City. They are a 3A school (Rock Valley is 1A). Bishop Heelan also made the State Tourney as a No. 7 seed in 3A. Rock Valley lost to them by the score of 59 - 57.

Class 1A is the smallest school division. Iowa has 4 classes total.

Thanks I used to follow the Iowa tourney when I lived in Nebraska. I was able to get the Sioux City TV station that carried the state tournament. I never understood their class set up but Heelan has always been tough.

Re: 2010 Recruits

Just curious, after looking at the brackets, and noting Rock Valley has a 24-2 record, who were the two teams to beat Rock Valley?

Re: 2010 Recruits

OK, lets get this thread back on topic. Rock Valley has made the Iowa State Tourney and is a No. 4 seed. They play St. Albert of Council Bluffs on March 8th at 12:15 PM.

You can see the brackets for 1A here.

Re: 2010 Recruits

We aren't recruiting Newton or Larson. Reasons don't matter, that is just the fact. I think this is a discussion that should be under a different topic. Neither of these guys are our recruits.

Re: 2010 Recruits

It was the second elbow that he threw in the video. Newton maybe has matured a little, but he is still a thug and I pity the poor school that ends up with him. This kid will never be considered a good role model. Maybe he can go to ORU or OU.

Whoa, Whoa, Whoa...since when did ORU and OU turn into "thug" programs?? As far as I can tell the players on those teams have done nothing to warrant this comment since SDSU has been playing them in conference play.
I could give two s#$ts about this kid from Huron and wether or not it was "intentional" or not...guess what...none of us will never know besides him. But let's not be dragging two of the best Summit League teams into the conversation by escentially saying they run "thug" programs.

This board's been interesting lately and I think that's putting it politely. I'll leave it at that.

Go Jacks!!

Re: 2010 Recruits

Boy, I really don't think that was just a basketball move. Even without seeing the rest of the game, that elbow wasn't called for and it was a pretty cheap shot.

As for it being in the 2010 recruits, other posters (or maybe it was just one) have made a reference that the Jacks should look at this guy as a recruit. Don't know if it is actually happening or if it was just wishful thinking of the poster.

Re: 2010 Recruits

I said it before & I'll say it again - the video only shows the elbow, it doesn't show what let UP to the elbow. After watching the IUPUI game there is a lot of back and forth that happens that can 'brew up' and lead to an unfortunate incident like this. If the Huron kid has a history of being a 'punk' - you have to take that into account, but it's hard for me to pass judgement on just the 29 second video. (It was a ROUNDHOUSE elbow at head level, though?!)
