Dykstra and Heemstra have signed this morning.

Re: 2009-10 Recruits

Cadsev means Zach Kranning here btw, as he is the extremely tall kid from Viborg. Zach's father, Patrick, was my old high school's (Alcester) coach for quite a few years, but left to take the superintendent job at Viborg when I was in 8th grade, so I never got to play for him (though I attended many summer camps with him during my elementry/junior high years). I have never seen Zach play, but if he listens to his father, he'll be an incredibly good player.

Ya my bad.....should proof-read prior to hitting save...and yes indeed I did mean Zach Kraning and not Horstman....Horstman sucks

Cory Jacobson is on the radar.....solid guard and one of a few prospects in the 2011 class. Nagy has seen him play this season but no offer has been extended. More than likely will wait until summer when he's seen against a little tougher competition than the Class B SD HS level. He is solid and will only continue to get better. Could easily see him land a scholarship offer in the next six months if all goes well for him.

Re: 2009-10 Recruits

I did check it Filbert, but Cadsev had not provided his overview of Jacobson there like he did with the recruits in this thread. He only noted that Cory had scored 40+ in one game and SDSU had been to Viborg to watch him once. I figured since this thread was discussing recruits from 2009-2012, it was all right to ask about Jacobson here too. Guess not...

Didn't mean to sound harsh (hence smiley).

Also, since I noticed the 2011 Recruits thread wasn't sticky, I went ahead and stuck it. I guess if we need a 2012 Recruits thread, somebody can create that, too.

Cadsev,
Where does Cory Jacobson from Viborg fit into this picture during the next few years? Any info on him?

Re: 2009-10 Recruits

Terrell Newton - 6'5" Huron Junior, plays all 5 positions on the floor, hard nosed tough kid. Might be without a true position in college but a good enough athlete to contribute. Hard to say what level right now but will get some DI looks.

Jared Bartling - SF Roosevelt Junior has been too inconsistent to state he's a DI basketball player. One night he looks great (ala Yankton 15 & 23 night performance) then he goes many games without putting up any significant numbers. Will get plenty of looks being 6'8" but doubtful that SDSU has interest, will offer or show interest down the road.

Zach Horstman - 6'9" freshman post from Viborg. Will be highly sought after due to size. He has nice vertical size not necessarily overwhelming broad shoulders but there is plenty of room to grow. He's narrow and should widen out a bit as he gets older. Has shown vast improvement in one year and if that continues will be a top recruit in 2012 class.

Sam Wallin - 6'3" freshman from SF O'Gorman....many consider him the most talented freshman currently in the class. Consistent strong, athletic guard with a high scoring mentality. Has had some great numbers for OG this year in limited playing time. Will be the foundation for the program in years to come. He's got a size 15 foot and could grow 1-2 inches more....fairly developed already for a freshman so hard to say how much taller he'll get, if he gets into the 6'4" - 6'6" range his value and stock in the DI rankings obviously rises...however currently he'll get strong DII-low DI looks.

Re: 2009-10 Recruits

Zach Horstman joins them all two years later (granted Moss & Cordova will be gone). Doubt that any 2010 kids from SDSU will be on the roster unless a scholarship pops open or it's a walk-on situation. Likely suitors could include:

Adol Aloung
Jared Bartling
Terrell Newton

Still many thought that SD kids aren't good enough to build this program...what they will see is that they won't only be good enough they will be the leaders in the future.

Looking ahead at 2012.....

Sam Wallin
Zach Kraning

then too early to tell for others but these two will draw a lot of attention the next four years.

Cadsev...a quick synopsis on the above mentioned kids from the 2011 & 2012 classes would be greatly appreciated. I know Aloung (Roosevelt) has been mentioned on here for almost 2 years and it would be nice to get an update on him. Bartling is another Roosevelt kid but I haven't heard as much about him. The other 3 (Newton, Wallin, Kraning) I haven't heard much about.

Re: 2009-10 Recruits

Recruits are classified in the year they graduate.....White, Fiegen, Carlson are considered 2009 Recruits.

Hard to compare Michael Felt to White, Fiegen or Carlson. They all play different positions. Felt is known as a shooting 2-guard. Not a combo (even if he plays a little PG for his HS team) but a solid 2. He'll play the 2 at NDSU.

Carlson, I would consider a PG, but most likely will play 1-3 position at SDSU. Staff waffled on offering him and his last five games he's shown what he can do offensively. Last summer the team was loaded with talent. Easily the most talent Schooler team in 19 years. Brayden didn't have to score but when injuries occurred he picked up the slack left by those not playing and provided solid scoring. Add 15-25 pounds to his athletic body and he's going to be a great player at SDSU.

White will play the 1-3 position at SDSU. Coaches see him possibly playing some PG if needed. Has had two solid games back to back for Madison. One of the more explosive players in the state.

Fiegen will be a 4-man in the rotation. Athletic and long his best basketball is ahead of him.

SD kids can compete in the Summit......these three are outstanding and will be solid at the next level and fall right in line behind Moss and Cordova as in state kids that help build a solid DI program at SDSU.

Its like a group of prisoners being locked in a big cell with only a window that is above everyone's height. Some one hoisted Cadsev up on their shoulders and he has a view of the cavalry coming to the rescue. So really appreciate your honest opinions.

Monday night Madison #3 plays Sioux Falls Christian #1 in class A in Madison at Dakota State!

Common oppponent: Platte-Geddes which Christian beat and Madison got killed by!

Re: 2009-10 Recruits

I've always interpreted it as being the first year for the student-athlete at SDSU.

That is correct...recruiting years refer to the year they are graduating high school and starting college. 2009 Recruits would be more appropriate.
