    The JUCO guard is from Atlanta and Coach says he is a nice young man who will give SDSU all of his effort on and off the court. Much needed depth at point guard and perhaps someone who can surprise and contribute on both ends of the court.
    I thought Stephenson was from Indiana originally?

      I don't buy that. He knows what they are all doing, but probably can't say that he does.

        He doesn't know them, he's never even seen them. They don't know each other, or have even seen each other. In fact nobody will have practiced or worked out with each other until after the 1st game of the season. That's the story of every university in the NCAA and they all are sticking to it.

          So did I. Nagy told me Atlanta is actually his home. I didn't ask for details and he may have been born in Indiana but per Coach Nagy Atlanta is where he is from.

          As for Coach Nagy's awareness of what the players are doing this summer, he heard they were in Brookings and that most of them, if not all of them, where seen together is some capacity.

            Not sure if these have been posted yet, but they are video links of #54 Heemstra & #42 Dykstra.

            First and foremost, it's hard to judge these two playing against competition that is 5" shorter than them.

            What you can get from the film though is that bot players are very skilled for being in the 6'9" range and both have high BBall IQ's.

            They can handle the ball, have good touch, and both seemed to be excellent passers for their size. The one negative I saw is that they don't have that explosion with their verticals.

            Dykstra seemed a little more polished and the potential to play at SF. Heemstra seemed more like a true center that could really utilize his passing in high/low post scenarios.

            The future looks bright with PG Wolters, SG White, SF Dykstra, PF Fiegen & C Heemstra for the next 3 years.

              It's not quite "nationally ranked signing class" type recognition, but it -is- recognition:

                  Just doing some quick research.....

                  Jurich (6'7/235) originally was an Air Force recruit. He grew 9 inches in HS and played on a state championship team in Arizona. He didn't put up huge numbers b/c of the good team he played on and didn't recieve alot of attention by schools b/c of his sudden growth.

                  Last year in Juco he averaged 16ppg (9th in conference) and 12.1 rebs (1st in conference - 5th in the nation). He was First Team in his conference and Second Team All-American NJCAA.

                  Freshman year he averaged 15/10.

                    Some MonteMosiman-esque moments there with bodies flying and all (you oldtimers will understand)... He looks like a banger, which is always a nice piece of the puzzle to have... Hope he comes aboard...

                        I was just coming back to this thread to post that. Hilarious name.

                          I was surprised with Steve Jurich's shooting, toughness, and passing. He looks very comfortable shooting from inside, midrange, free throws, and 3 pointers. Being a lefty has its advantages too.

                          While he looked very tough and physical in the game footage, he was playing against players that were typically smaller than him. He will not get those same mismatches at the next level. I remember watching how the athletic Gopher bigs made it so difficult for our post players last year. That could cause problems in his offensive game.

                          I also noticed that his rebounding and inside scoring were more a reflection on his footwork and knowledge, not athletic ability. My high school coach was an undersized post player in college and I learned how to use good footwork and positioning to overcome taller, more athletic players. Jurich is going to have to continue building off those skills at the D-1 level.

                          Finally, I liked his high post game. He appears to recognize where everyone is on the court and how to get it to the low post using a variety of passes. In addition, with his ability to nail it from long distance, he will be able to stretch defenses.

                          Here is another self-promotion video done up for him: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqLqNf3JQ3Q&NR=1

                            I think Jurich's biggest contribution will be to come in and match up with bigger/stronger posts. Right now we have decent height with Fiegen, Dykstra, & Heemstra, but we're pretty skinny. Jurich will be able to match up better with the bruising type of posts that we might have had trouble with.

                              That's becoming a bit of a lost art... But good footwork is hard to defend without fouling. If you're single-teamed in the post, you can get open a couple different ways, and if you beat your defender, odds are he'll reach over you (if he's behind you) or reach in (if he's in front of you) in order to interfere with the shot. That should make him a solid 'get' for the Jacks.... A decent replacement for AC, who was pretty good at posting up against bigger players himself...

                              McHale had great footwork.

                                About this dude, I liked what I saw and agree that having a strong body in the post would be extremely helpful on this team. Also consider that he has played for a couple years and been most likely a leader on his team, at least with his play. Jacks could use some of that in the post too.
