Another example of globalization, looks like we are an ideal opportunity for the young man. Come play for a coach who understands basketball from an international perspective.

Genuinely curious, what does understanding basketball from an international perspective mean and how does Froling stand to benefit from that?

This guy just talks out of his ass. Froling has been discussed in detail in the recruiting thread.

Because, many players end up on international teams, and Mr. Froling is from Australia, and our coach has a lot of international experience.
And Mr. Froling is now a serious prospect and not just on the board.

You could have just put this on the recruiting thread..

Hope Semi has shared with Harry his recruiting relationship with Wojo, and semi's time at Duke.
Maybe a positive factor in getting him here.

Semi main reason as most transfers, was playing time, and with all his incoming credentials not unreasonable for that though.
If anything, I think it would more likely be towards Coach K (similar to Rasheed Sulaimon) as opposed to Wojo. Also maybe the 2 years at Duke weren't so bad.

SMU transfer Harry Froling to visit Marquette
2:09 p.m. CT Jan. 5, 2017
http://www.jsonline.com/story/sports/college/marquette/2017/01/05/smu-transfer-harry-froling-visit-marquette/96209944/
Harry Froling, a 6-foot-11 freshman center who on Dec. 12 announced his intention to leave SMU's men's basketball team and transfer, will visit Marquette this coming Sunday and Monday. The visit was first reported by Scout.com's Evan Daniels and was later confirmed by the Journal Sentinel.
Froling's decision to visit Marquette comes as something of a surprise. The Australian told his hometown newspaper, the Townsville Bulletin, in Townsville, Queensland, on Dec. 29 that his decision was between Oregon State and the University of Dayton. His decision to visit Marquette came at Dayton's expense.
According to Froling, the fit at SMU just wasn't right. The former four-star recruit committed to play for the Mustangs while Hall of Famer Larry Brown was still the head coach. Brown left his position in early July, shortly after Froling's arrival on campus.
No matter where Froling decides to transfer, he must sit out for a year under NCAA rules. He will be eligible to play again after the fall semester during the 2017-'18 season and would be considered a sophomore.

I usually don't buy into the whole, "Let's hope there's nice weather for his visit!" deal, but this weather is painful for me and I've lived in Milwaukee my entire life. I can't imagine the shock his body will go through when he arrives in Milwaukee if the weather remains like this...

Another reason to get Froling - he could be the Wally or Sam to the superstar younger brother. His "little" brother Samson is 6'9" 16 year old playing up on the Aussie U18 national team, leading the team in minutes and averaging 9.6ppg.

Reminder #mubb fans former SMU big Harry Froling (6'11, 260) is visiting Marquette today & tmrw. Would have 2.5 yrs beginning Mid-Dec 2017
So..we should have news on this probably tomorrow night, latest during the day on Tues. Given his choice between Oregon State (start classes this week), and MU. Right?
-
Certainly hope so. Our big right now is not very good.

Honestly still depends on what his professional options back in Australia look like. I like MU's position here, but there is more involved than just MU vs. OSU.
-
Crap, forgot about the Pro option. Hopefully he likes ice cream in January! lol.

Sure. Because following Tom Wilson to SMU workied so well. Boise State is dreaming. Why not, it's free.
-

But the decision still has to come rather soon...or we will know he is going pro?
-
I don't think he flew over to Milwaukee just for an official visit only to fly back and turn pro in Australia. I would be surprised if he leaves Milwaukee.
-

Probably brought everything he owns to Milwaukee, doubt he is going back to SMU. Or it is on the Oregon St. Pro ball, Australian ball must be bad if you are taking
a freshman that average 4 points in college. I say he stays as well. Barely ready for college if you saw his body much less the pros. Needs a year with a trainer.
-
What's that I see out of the side of my eye? Could it be the ghost of Rick Majerus, pointing Harry north?
-

Thought the same thing.
Now can Wojo's old buddy Jabari get Harry in to meet Thon and Delly after the game?
I'm sure he'll have no issue making that happen. I'm fuming that Stan couldn't get Matur Maker to back out of his ASU commitment and bring him to Marquette, it's what he does. And he has Thon being in Milwaukee to sell even more. Slacking.
I don't think he flew over to Milwaukee just for an official visit only to fly back and turn pro in Australia. I would be surprised if he leaves Milwaukee.
I'm thinking you are right. And logically it obviously makes sense. But I never like getting too confident about these things. I'm a pessimist. So hoping for good news but not expecting it.
-
He's here in part BECAUSE of Thon and Delly. That isn't just a mere coincidence IMO.
-
I don't think he flew over to Milwaukee just for an official visit only to fly back and turn pro in Australia. I would be surprised if he leaves Milwaukee.
I think your logic is correct, but I'm an eternal skeptic so that if things go south I don't feel as bad.
-
I don't think he flew over to Milwaukee just for an official visit only to fly back and turn pro in Australia. I would be surprised if he leaves Milwaukee.
I think there's something to this. Froling didn't schedule his visit with us until after he got back from exploring his pro options in Australia. Why freeze your balls off in Milwaukee if you are leaning towards going pro? Now if his last visit was to the other Warriors over in Honolulu, I might understand.

Aside from what I've read here over the last week or so, I don't know a ton about Froling.
Luke has his flaws but he is going to be a loss. Hopefully, Heldt will continue his development and John can come in and contribute defensively and on the boards. It sounds like Eke may be more of a project at this time.
I can't imagine both Froling and Heldt would start. Of course, this also depends on any potential grad transfers.
Do we think Froling is the starting center next season once he is eligible and that he makes a significant impact?

I see Froling as a starting "center" who plays "center" on defense but "power forward" on offense.

Once a lanky center left a southern school

He sang as he waited for a program to wow him
You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me

-
Doesn't he have to sit one year?
Yes. He would be eligible on 12/17/17, the evening that grades post from first semester.
-
Doesn't he have to sit one year?
He does.
Another thing to keep in mind that MU has Wally's scholarship that went unused to date this season so we can offer Froling a scholarship for this semester unlike most teams where he'd have to pay his own way for a semester.

Hard to believe no one around these parts knows for sure if he's made up his mind...
Honestly tho, this would be a great pick up. Gives us a chance to see what we got with Heldt and John in non-con next year, and then have Froling step in and play 20 mins a night at C, with some minutes a the 4 sprinkled in, assuming he develops well over the next 11 months.
Here's to hoping he picks MU!
-
This would be a win, win for Froling, Heldt, Johns and Ike. Good competition in practice, ability to rotate players at center/power forward positions and time for the young ones to develop.

Would it be any worse than any normal vacation from the US to Australia? I'm not sure when he announced his intention to transfer and visited Oregon State, but the 2 day visit at Oregon State, leaving from Texas, is a pretty routine trip. From there I assume he went over to Australia over the holidays and then I assume he flew straight to Milwaukee?
Not sure. If he was going from Dallas to Corvallis, then back to Dallas, then over to Australia, then back to Dallas, then up to Milwaukee, and now back to Dallas, then yes, that's a lot of travel. If it was just Dallas to Corvallis to Australia for a couple weeks and then to Milwaukee (for good, let's hope), it's not much more than if I decided to take a 2 week trip to Australia.

It's (Australia) a huge time swing(time difference from Aus and US), n (and) that above described time difference is hard on the body(stressful).

Likely that he went to SMU thinking Larry Brown would be his coach.

No doubt immediate playing time and lots of it determining factor.

Figured he'd cite the coaching change. My guess is it gets denied as he could always just sit out 17-18 to play 3.

I think he will be approved to play the entire 17-18 season. Unfortunately, the NCAA will take until December 18th to decide.
-
There is no basis in the appeal and it's extremely unlikely, unless he left SMU because the President was physically abusing him nightly.
See ya in December, Harry!

Jamal McKay appealed and was denied, even though he did not play.
Someone posted awhile ago that Dawson appealed and his appeal was granted. The difference might be that Wojo did not play him at all. Also, I wonder if MU played a role in McKay and Dawson's appeals. Bascially not agreeing to McKay and agreeing to Dawson. Otherwise, I do not know why one was allowed and one was not. Given that Froling played this season, I do not think he has a chance of his appeal being granted. However, that is just my gut feeling.

Think his ceiling and comp will be Jarrod Lovette, who was a solid player at MU. Yet if some think Luke is slow laterally, and a liability in pick and roll D - Froling appears heavier of foot to me than Luke.

Dawson's appeal was not granted. At least not yet. He is listed as a senior on Liberty's roster.
He was played by Wojo.

Huh, according this article Harry said we were heavily involved with him before he committed to SMU. I don't remember us recruiting him but good to know the relationships were still strong.
Love hearing him talk about the strength and conditioning program. He seems to have a great commitment to working on his body. Todd Smith, do your thing.

You're clueless on multiple points. There's a diff between appealing to have a year of eligibility granted and an appeal to not sit out the required year in residence
Dawson had no case and his request was dismissed. There's nothing known that would indicate Froling has a prayer of not sitting out a year

This feels like a great fit for Marquette. Harry seems very motivated to do the work to get better and prove a lot of people who doubted him--either at SMU or from home--that they are wrong and he is going to be great. It takes a lot of work to light that fire in a kid if he doesn't bring it on his own. Really excited to see him on the court after Todd gets ahold of him.

I was only posting on what I remembered someone posting sometime ago about Dawson's eligibility and that I did include in my post. I have not followed Dawson, so I would not know about what actually happen with him. Perhaps what I was incorrectly remembering was someone posting about Dawson appealing for an extra year. It certainly is not worth my time to go back and look at what was actually posted. Either way I agree that there is no basis for Froling to win an appeal.

Does he start practicing with the team this week? Wonder if he will be a better defender under the boards.

I referee youth basketball and on Saturday I just so happened to be paired with a ref who hails from Australia. She is a former player, both in Australia and at D2 Nebraska-Kearney, and she has been reffing youth ball since she was 15.
She said she called many of Froling's games when he was playing youth ball and high school. She said, "You got a great one - a really great kid who has serious game."
Not that we needed any more validation. I just thought this was an interesting happenstance that I happened to ref a few games with an Aussie who knows Harry.

Do you think Froling is ahead of Matt at this point?
If so, playing against Froling in practice may be a good spark for Luke. The more competition, the better (even if Harry can't play in games now).

The bigger question is how Wojo uses Froling, both Matt and Luke are back to basket players, it seems Froling can go outside as well. With all the bigs next year I can
see John or Matt at the center and Froling at the 4.

I believe there was a point in the DePaul game where Luke and Matt were both on the court. Wojo certainly hasn't hesitated to experiment with different lineups.

Given how Wojo used Ellenson at the center position at times, I'd expect to see something similar with Froling. It should open up more driving lanes and allow us to pull a big outside. It is hard to imagine an even more potent offense next year! Although Fischer and JJJ will be missed at times. Katin will be missed a lot, the way he has come on, so maybe the best I should hope for is no drop off (which would be great considering where we are at offensively).

Other than Howard, you are losing the next three top scorers on the team. I will agree the point guards, Rowsey and Howard, will be improved slightly, the 2 guard
will be the same, the three will not be as good figuring you lose Johnson and Reinhardt, replaced by a frosh, Anim (not as good), Hauser should be better and the centers will not be as good, so why you saying they will be more potent next year?
-
Seems like Matty H had been going too easy on Luke in practice. Now that Harry is there, Luke is playing stronger. I already welcome Harry's contribution!

Sorry, I forgot about Katin and then edited my post.

Based on what Froling did at SMU compared to what has done here? Definitely.

Could be is probably the operative phrase. Don't forget that recruiting for next year isn't done.
However, its hard to imagine us having an offense ranked higher than 8th (where we are right now). But even if we're only top 25, I'm hoping we will raise a lot more spots in defense.

Expect to see Froling and Matt on the floor at the same time a good bit, especially if he gets down to around 240. Should see a lot of kick outs from double teams as the defense tries to collapse on the bigs. That and Froling can step out and drill the 3.

Absolutely love the fact that Harry has dedicated this year to creating a BEast ready body. Next, Wojo will work on producing a BEast level 4/5.
Looking forward to his court presence next December.

I think we'll see a lot more of Sam at the 3.
As you know, Froling can't play til mid December.
I think Eke only red shirts if we land a grad transfer. But I'm all for it.

Sure, but Sam is not a 4. He will play much more like a wing than a front court player next year, IMO. Same goes for Anim.

I wouldn't be surprised to see us go big sometimes and play a 1-3-1 with Hauser/Cain/Cheatham/John using length to disrupt at the top and along the baseline. All have the athleticism to cover the ground and the length to disrupt. Put Rowsey/Howard on the edges and Froling or Heldt in the middle.
-
I am glad to see that Harry is working himself into shape. One of our bigs next year (Harry, Matt, Theo, Ike) is going to have to be able to defend on the perimeter. Can't have a rerun of Oxtule. The videos I have seen of TJ indicate he may be able to defend in space. Also, in a perfect world, Harry is mobile enough to be one of the 4 in the 4-out-1-in offense. If not, either Wojo has to revamp his schemes, or look for Cain to get run along side Hauser.

Or you can just have the exact same starting lineup you have had recently and have Cheatham coming off the bench as well.

Maybe. 6 returning players next year from this year's rotation. Sacar and Harry have been in the program, working on their games and bodies. Sacar, on the scout team, has been acting as the other team's top scorer, working on his handle and his mid-range game. If he has improved those and is 6'4-5 and muscular, that would be great. Harry has dropped over 20 lbs and is wrestling with Matt and Luke every day in practice. If his game is as advertised, then MU has a really solid 8 returning. That is a great base. Then, whatever MU gets from Ike, TJ, Cain and TBD guard is gravy.

Expect to see Froling and Matt on the floor at the same time a good bit, especially if he gets down to around 240. Should see a lot of kick outs from double teams as the defense tries to collapse on the bigs. That and Froling can step out and drill the 3.
I don't think defenses are gonna collapse on Matt.

During the last Creighton game, did they show the guys wearing chef hats ahd holding a "Heldt's Kitchen" sign on TV?
They put them up on the Jumbotron during a timeout and I saw Matt looking up at the screen and chuckling.

I was at the game too so I'm not sure. Those guys rule though

Looks like Froling hurt himself. On crutches and has a walking boot.

He's officially a Marquette player now.
Must have been recent. I saw him at the Bucks game Saturday and he was fine.

Hope he bought his own ticket?

Harry weighed in at 261 during the 2016 Hoop Summit (last April). That's when Draft Express made the comments about his poor conditioning. Hopefully he keeps up the hard work. It looks like Harry has a good frame to put on muscle. I also wonder if playing lighter will help his defense.

Yowsa. My arms are more toned than Harry's in that picture, and I am an old woman who doesn't lift.

He tweeted 3 days ago that he was now at 248 lbs, down from 271, and sai that the last time he weighed so little was when he was 15/16 yrs old. By December, HF will be a BEAST.

The conditioning is great news. That said, the comments about his defense give some concern that we should temper our expectations--sounds a little bit like Devante-lite. But, paired with Heldt, could be a good change-of-pace big

HF played Heldt-like minutes on a team of switchables as a frosh. I can see why he didn't get big minutes. SMU plays fast and switched everything. Hopefully, he is quicker and fitter and ready to play fast next year. Very interesting to see the team he came from.
