Never a doubt. The cat can ball. We're in for a real treat with Vander.
Congrats Van... Great experience to have.
Interesting to see that James Bell (Jamail Jones' HS teammate and Nova commit) didn't make the cut.
That a baby Vander.
hell yeah
Congrats, that is a really big accomplishment. Great representative and good luck USA.

Great news, and really happy for Vander. His defensive focus sounds like a great asset. Hopefully they can win gold! Go USA and go VB!
And did anyone else see the trite Badger comments at the end? Sore losers :D

I really like the comments from Blue about his commitment to be a lockdown defender. Sounds like somebody wants serious PT the minute he sets foot on campus.
