2011 recruits

Re: 2011 recruits

It looks like Regionals begin this week in Illinois H.S. basketball. Here's a write up on Fremd HS, home of future Rabbit Zach Monaghan.

FREMD VIKINGS (17-9) 4A

• No. 5 seed in Barrington Sectional (Fremd Regional)

• Co-champs of Mid-Suburban League West Division

• First game 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 2 vs. winner of Rolling Meadows vs. Round Lake

Projection: Led by South Dakota State-bound guard Zach Monaghan, the Vikings overcame key injuries early and at mid-season to post another excellent campaign. Once they put their full complement of talented players on the court, Fremd finished the season with nine wins in their last 12 outings and a share of the Mid-Suburban League’s West Division championship. They have size, depth, and a star in the aforementioned Monaghan, a guard who can win a game single-handed with his outside shot and contributes mightily with steals and defense on average nights. The Vikings were given a huge advantage in hosting a regional that lacks a dominant team. Zion-Benton is seeded higher than Fremd, but is young and a year away. Fremd took care of Rolling Meadows, its first opponent, with ease during the regular season, and if they can keep freshman sensation Milik Yarbrough from overwhelming them, they can most definitely topple a young Zion-Benton team in the Regional championship.

I think we might have to look at the kid from Pine Ridge, Orie Brown. He wasn't really all that much last year but he outplayed Zach when Pine Ridge beat Winner and really seems to have been playing good all year.

Nice stuff Mitchell. Minnesota Preps has reported we have some interest in TJ Okafor 6-6 small foward from Brooklyn Park and Marquel Curtis 6-2 shooting guard from Robbinsdale. I have also read that UNI, Wichita State, and Nebraska are now interested in Wes Washpun. He sounds like he would be a great get if he came to us.

Re: 2011 recruits

I used to twitter under twitter.com/minneapolisjack but I shut down the account a couple months ago. I'm not sure how often I'll post on this blog but hopefully I'll find the time to keep it up and post once a week. We are blessed to have good coverage from Terry V and the Argus so there isn't much more that I can add but I like to have something to play around with in my spare time.

The header comes up as centered when I view it, is anybody else having an issue? I'll probably replace it eventually anyways as I just made that up quick to get something going.

Well that explains why I was trying to figure out where MinneapolisJack went! I used to follow you on Twitter, as well.

And the website heading is centered now. Don't know if you changed anything.

Re: 2011 recruits

FYI,

It is off-center for me as well & cuts off on the right hand side. Nice job on the content though - much appreciated.


*Edit - it appears correctly for me now - not sure if you made a change or not.

Great stuff! Do you do Twitter? If so, put your name up here to follow.

PS- You should center the "Jackrabbit Den" on the page

Really good stuff. This is the kind of material that makes this board so fun and valuable. I used to do a lot of research and subscribe to the recruiting websites and glad to see someone continue that passion! PROPS!

I can say that if SDSU would happen to get Cougill or Washpun they would be great gets! The Washpun kid wants to go to Iowa, but is waiting on an offer. Hopefully they hold out and SDSu can steal one. He'd be a great addition! Cougill would probably send SDSU to the dance next year, but he has some grade issues to figure out.

Re: 2011 recruits

Love the discussion about this year's post play, but let's focus this thread on who may be coming in this fall, either JUCO or frosh. Thanks.
