Watched quite a few of Sina's games this past season. Northwestern is a perfect fit. That's the level he should be at and his "high ranking" is a little too flattering.

Still a nice get for Northwestern.  I can't remember their last top 100 recruit.

For just a year though.  He and Jaren Sina won't have the chance to play together.

Jitim Young was Northwestern's last top-100 guy if I am not mistaken...

This is a solid pick up, not for right now, but for the future for Northwestern.  With the play of John Shurna, the program has truly risen.  It has become a solid Big 10 team that has a great chance of making the NCAA Tournament soon.  By the time Sina is a sophomore, Sobo and Demps will be making their strides plus Hearn, Turner, and other bigs will be placed in the system.  It is finally nice to see a consistent growth in the program.

Was Evan Eschmeyer a big HS recruit? Guessing no if is name hasn't been mentioned yet.

so happy for the 'cats.  Football and now Bball on the rise to match their already highly competitve other programs.  I always liken them to MU in the big 1?- small, private vs all huge state-funded schools.  May try to catch more games at Welch-Ryan in fall.  I thought they were going to be great two years ago until Koble left the team.  He and Shurna would have been tough together.

Crawford's a nice player along with the traditional point guard. Hopefully the 'Cats will crack the 68 and save Carmody's hide.

Eschmeyer seemed to be one of those guys that was around for 7 years (I know that wasn't the case, but it felt that way).

Fact check - he was injured his first 2 years, and was there for 6.

agree, 4ever, but I think it'll be Fred Hill that saves Carmody's hide..., IF he can continue recruiting quality.
