All Things 2019 Gophers Basketball Recruiting Thread - Tweets, Links, Video, Analysis

Really? Why? What footage of Gaston looked as good as this? Their games aren't remotely similar and this kid looks way more talented.

It was somewhat tongue in cheek. I said it because he's an unranked foreign player. Gaston was throwing down dunks in his highlight video and looked pretty athletic. As I said, this kid has some really good offers so I don't believe he will be Gaston v2.

If Tennessee is on him, I'm good with him

Kids got an extremely high release point. Being 6'9" with long arms makes it near impossible to block his shot.
If he can stroke that three consistently like he was doing on the video look out.

Gerald Drumgoole has committed to Pitt

Are we going to get anyone in this class??? Or is lil Dicky putting all his eggs in the Hurt basket?

(I know we have one guy signed....)

People keep mentioning Hurt, but when is the last time we have seen a report that the staff was in Rochester or in the Hurt home? Matthew was up here watching his brother a few weeks ago, but the tea leaves are obvious on Hurt and the staff is spending their time/resources elsewhere.

Go Gophers!!

Hurt isn't coming. Zero percent chance. None. Little Dicky can back his bags, with the poor season, and horrible class coming in next year it's ugly. They have a broken guy in Curry and a really good player in Oturu for the 4/5 and that's it right now. Yuck.

When is the last time we've seen a report on anything related to 2019 recruiting?

I said in the Ben Carlson thread that I would take Jaeden King from Cretin Durham Hall. I still stand by that. Western Illinois commit and I'm not sure if he is locked into that or not but I'll take anyone that can splash 3s at this point. People didn't seem to accept this take from me....

Wait until the spring, recruiting usually quiet during the season

I've never seen him play, but he doesn't look overly skilled or athletic in his highlight videos. Shooting 36.5% from 3 according to MN Basketball Hub. Also signed his LOI, so that ship has sailed regardless.

So we're stealing recruits from Western Illinois? Yikes.

Isaiah Ihnen seems like a bigger, more skilled, more athletic version of King. I'm hoping for him.

Who cares, he can pack his bags and we can delete any threads on little Hurt.
