2019 Basketball Recruiting Notes

[seaofred92]

Well well well sounds like Tim may actually be recruiting a center. Armon Gates was in to see 6’10” Center David Skogman. 

He has offers from Texas Tech and Rutgers. Getting interest from Wisconsin, Boston College and K State.

Nice find. Now we just need to recruit someone who knows how to teach blocking out and we'll be all set.

He may be a center & he may be 6' 10", but he's only 200 lbs.  Amir Harris was 205 before he got mono & Brady Heiman is listed at 215.

Weight program!

David had a cardiac arrest on the court back in Dec. and almost died.  I could not read the entire article.

Yes, they have a weight program.  But at 200 lbs, he won't be able to play in the post right away in the B1G.

Agreed, but hopefully we can get a grad transfer and he can redshirt a yr.  This is what Tim should have been doing from the beginning.

Holy s#!t that article was crazy. He went into cardiac arrest and his mom is a nurse who immediately began CPR. A coach got a defibrillator which started his heart and he woke up. If it weren’t for their quick actions who probably would have died. 

The quote in the article wasn’t very assuring. “He said that obviously something was wrong, but we don’t know what it was so they couldn’t tell me that I couldn’t play.”

That's crazy.  20 yrs ago, we were playing in a HS alum game and classmate died of heart attack at the age 27.

Minnesota offered

With the upcoming coaching change I wonder if everyone will stay in this class. Green seems like a guy that can really help.

Already signed though... right?

Yeah but typically they will let kids out of a LOI (meaning the school) if a coaching change occurs. See last year with Xavier Johnson and Kenya Hunter/Pitt
