Days played with them this week. He is a good defender and rebounder, but still not much offensively. I saw they ended up losing in the finals. Watched a few of their games and Herro and Curtis had their moments. I thought Greg Foster looked a lot better too. Not sure if Plumb is done because he signed for football with Iowa a few weeks ago, but Trapp wasn't there either. Will MacDonald played with them - he is an Iowa State wide receiver recruit -- and I could have sworn they did not want him to play any AAU. They had Kareen Ozier, an unsigned senior playing with them and the big center from Milwaukee Pius who had previously left the team, Bilal. I think they played with 8 guys total -- one guys I had never seen.

I don't know about RAS Domask. Their is no NY2LA Vegas this year, which is listed on their schedule. Last year, Marcus Domask and Cole Nau ditched their team and played with Butler Elite in Vegas. Nobal Days was on that team with Matthew Hurt.

Yeah, I had heard Days played up this week.. haven't figured out where they're going to be this coming week.

I saw the same thing re: RAS Domask (e.g., their schedule refers to a tourney that isn't happening).. maybe I'll just hit up coach. Hopefully they can get into the LV Classic. I did go to a few of their games last year in Vegas (Butler Elite 15U with Marcus, Cole and Nobal -- Marcus by far the best that week)... I see Butler Elite has their 17U's in the LV Classic.. don't see anything for 16U... hmm...

BY MARK MILLER
WisSports.net Editor

The pull of once again playing alongside his older brother was a big factor in the decision of Stevens Point senior Joey Hauser to commit this evening to the men's basketball program at Marquette University.

Hauser, a 6-foot-8 forward who is a 5-star prospect and ranked No. 18 in the country in the class of 2018 by Scout.com, selected Marquette, where his brother Sam will be a sophomore in the fall, over a final four that also included Michigan State, Notre Dame and Wisconsin.

Sam Hauser, a 6-foot-8 forward, averaged 8.8 points and 4.9 rebounds as a freshman for a Marquette squad that went 19-13 a year ago and qualified for the NCAA Tournament under third-year coach Steve Wojciechowski.

Joey and Sam Hauser played together on the Stevens Point teams that won WIAA Division 1 state championships in 2015 and 2016 under head coach Scott Anderson.

With both Sam Hauser and all-state guard Trev Anderson graduating in the spring of 2016, the pressure of leading Stevens Point to its third straight state championship fell squarely on the shoulders of Joey Hauser, who missed 11 games at the start of the season while recovering from a high ankle sprain sustained during the football season.

Hauser proved that he was up to the challenge as he led Stevens Point to yet another Division 1 state championship in an absolutely dominating performance in the state-title game against Arrowhead.

Hauser scored 33 points, grabbed 21 rebounds and handed out 4 assists in the Panthers' resounding 85-56 victory over the Warhawks at the Kohl Center in Madison.

A versatile player who can play multiple positions due to his vast skill set, Hauser was followed closely during the spring and summer open evaluation periods for club teams by the coaching staffs of Marquette, Wisconsin, Michigan State and Notre Dame, among others.

Though he had taken unofficial visits in June to Marquette, Michigan State and Wisconsin, and was followed exceptionally close by all three coaching staffs, in the end Hauser opted to join his brother at Marquette.

"Playing again with Sam is a perk of my decision to go to Marquette, but I want to go to Marquette because of coach Wojo and the time he invested in me as a person and player," Joey Hauser said this evening. "Having Sam there is a big bonus. He let the process happen and toward the end of my recruitment, he was my brother and helped me through the process without pushing me one way or the other."

Hauser joins a Marquette program that has a very talented, young roster under coach Steve Wojciechowski, who made both Hauser boys his No. 1 recruiting priority in Wisconsin virtually from day one of his tenure at the Milwaukee Jesuit school in the spring of 2014.

Neenah graduate Matt Heldt (6-10) and wing Haanif Cheatham (6-5) will seniors in Joey Hauser's freshman year while Sam Hauser (6-8), Markus Howard (5-11), Harry Froling (6-11), Ed Morrow (6-7) and Sacar Anim (6-5) will be juniors.

Incoming freshmen Jamal Cain (6-7), Ike Eke (6-9), Theo John (6-8) and Greg Elliott (6-3) will be sophomores while Brendan Bailey (6-6) will join Joey Hauser (6-8) in the freshman class after spending two years on a Mormon mission.

"Coach Wojo, during my visit to Marquette in June, had the Marquette roster laid out for me," Hauser said. "It's like a dream roster for him and I am really looking forward to joining that roster. They will be very good this year, and will be better in the future. It's very exciting to be a part of the program.

"Coach Wojo just wants me to be a basketball player when I get to Marquette. Of course, I need to be able to defend all the positions, but he plans to use my skill and height in different ways. I can post up smaller guys and get around taller guys off the dribble. But mostly he wants me to be a basketball player."

With his much-anticipated collegiate decision now behind him, Joey Hauser can enjoy himself in his final club event in Las Vegas next week with the Iowa Barnstormers before preparing for his final year of prep basketball.

Hauser and senior wing guard Drew Blair (6-3), a sharpshooting wing with several NCAA Division II offers, headline a talented Stevens Point squad that will attempt to win its fourth consecutive state title next March.

There will be plenty of difficult hurdles to jump over in order for that to happen, but with Hauser, Blair and seniors Drew Cullen (6-0), Brennan Mueller (6-1) and Max Hofmeister (6-0) leading the way, SPASH figures to enter the season ranked No. 1 among D1 schools in the state.

"It's a new year so things change," Hauser said. "We will have a new roster and have to figure out how to make things work and then work to keep getting better. At the end, you hope to play in Madison for the gold ball again, but it won't be easy because we have such a big target on our back.

"I am extremely happy to be in the position I am in. I am blessed to be in the position I am. I have to remind myself how lucky I am. As for committing to Marquette now, I had thought about taking some official visits in the fall, but it just felt right to make the decision now. I just didn't want to wait it out any longer because I knew where I wanted to go."

At least 3 of the responses were by ADULT Badger fans.  I can understand students showing little class because they are idiot kids (no offense MU students). 

Seriously, I questioned my own maturity simply checking for updates on his decision for the last few weeks.  But to go on a public forum and ridicule a 17 yr old's decision to play with his brother?  There is seriously something mentally wrong with people who would do this, no matter what fan base they are from.

Won't need to be, but with Joey committed, Wojo can totally Poleaxe him to grab a PG. Probably best to wait until after Joey signs his NLI though.

"I am extremely happy to be in the position I am in. I am blessed to be in the position I am. I have to remind myself how lucky I am. As for committing to Marquette now, I had thought about taking some official visits in the fall, but it just felt right to make the decision now. I just didn't want to wait it out any longer because I knew where I wanted to go."

Really nice article. Thanks for posting it here, Mark. This last paragraph is my favorite. Sounds like he appreciates the incredible opportunity that he has, and is confident about his choice.

Congratulations, Joey! Good luck this season, hope you enjoy every minute of your Marquette experience and I look forward to seeing you on the court.

Can we cool it on extrapolating too much from small sample sizes? Or if you want to do it that way, I guess Jordan McCabe should go pro before he finishes high school, based on what he did to Herro just 7 months ago: http://www.postcrescent.com/story/sports/high-school/basketball/2016/12/30/kaukauna-ghosts-rout-whitnall/95989646/

Mods, feel free to remove this if you don't want this here but because it's behind a paywall I figured I'd post

ESPN 100 forward Joey Hauser verbally committed to Marquette on Sunday, choosing the Golden Eagles over Iowa State, Notre Dame, Purdue, Northwestern and Wisconsin. Here's a look at what he'll bring to Milwaukee.

Why he committed: Head coach Steve Wojciechowski has been recruiting Hauser longer and harder than anyone else and the dividends paid with his commitment. Hauser's older brother Sam will be a junior on the team when Joey arrives on campus. The reality of playing together and accomplishing something special at Marquette was definitely a factor in his decision. Hauser has witnessed tremendous growth in the program and feels he could be vital piece towards the Eagles taking the next step.

"I think the family connection was too tough to pass up," according to Greg Stephens, his AAU coach. "Not only playing with his older brother but also allowing his parents and family to get to all his home games was big."

What he brings: A strong four man who is bouncy with the talent to drain three’s, beat defenders off the dribble with a drive game against like sized and bigger opponents. Hauser is a multiple position player at both ends of the floor. He stretches out a defense with his shooting ability and will get them into a full closeout and possible defensive rotations. In the paint and from the mid post area he will post up or face up and score with touch. More importantly if the defense switches he will then immediately roll into the paint and post the smaller defender. Defensively he switches comfortably with most guards and forwards due to his size and length. His footwork, fundamentals and ability to finish drives make him special. Marquette was not a strong rebounding team last year and look for Hauser to provide immediate help on the glass.


How he fits: Marquette will only be losing one senior next season in point guard Andrew Rowsey. The Golden Eagles led the nation in shooting three's in 2016-17, hitting over 50% from distance. Hauser fits right into the Eagles system as he will be an extremely valuable forward who will screen and pop to space the floor. One of the areas Marquette was not strong in was rebounding as a team and look for Hauser to change that when he steps on campus. His role will first be as a passer, complimentary scorer and rebounder. Marquette fans can expect Hauser to slide into the role of an impact player as a sophomore.

Who he reminds us of: When you look at his size, skills and frame he is similar to Austin Nichols who was a top 20 recruit coming out of high school. Hauser is stronger at the same stage and more of a gym rat. But the mismatch ability along with the shooting touch as a forward is in the same category.

How the class is shaping up: This is the first commitment in 2018 for the staff and it propels recruiting momentum as they head into the last period of the July recruiting calendar. Now the Marquette staff will shift their attention to the point guard position and try to close out their class with Quentin Grimes who is the final piece to their puzzle. The Golden Eagles also will have transfer Ed Morrow (Nebraska) as part of their 2018 class along with forward Brendan Bailey who will be 21 years old and back from his Mormon mission trip. For the first time under Wojciechowski this program will have a battle tested older roster in 2018 and will have a chance to stay old, which is a recipe for success in college basketball.

No, not saying that.  But a lot of these scouts are comparing Herro to a young Gordon Hayward.  I'm all for him decommitting from UW and joining Joey actually.  Seems like a much stronger path to NBA like Hayward and I think the Herros are probably realizing that now.  How many UW NBA all-stars have their been in last 15 years?

Herro is more in the mold of a Kellen Dunham than Gordon Haywood.  Like mentioned, Haywood is 6-8 and 226.  But even Dunham was listed at 6-6.

But I'm sticking by my prediction of Herro being the white Earl Tatum.

Oh look, since Cheesy didn't have anyone to agree with him, he made a second account to give him some support.

The scouts agree with Cheesy actually.  Look over to your left and see those 2016-17 SOTG standings.  Pretty clear MU needs an influx of talent.  I can't be happier Fischer is gone and he led the way. 

If we can get Herro and Joey then we have a shot.  No more Fischers of the world leading us in that category.

I'm either bad at twitter (very possible) or they got deleted.
on his mom's repost you are correct but if you go to Joey's original commitment tweet there is some BS in the responses.

I will say that there are at least an equal number of classy responses from UW folks to his tweet and there was much less vitriol on the Bucky boards than i expected (the exact amount of hubris i expected though).  i'd like to hate their collective response but in general it's pretty rational.

I'm not understanding how I am a troll if all I am suggesting is we look into getting Herro to commit with Joey.  It wouldn't be that hard to get him to switch either as he is tight with Herro.  We need to do something to elevate our program to where UW has gotten the last 4-5 years.  Talking down their commits and recruits which is commonly done on this board is not going to get us there.

I am not surprised NBA scouts are looking at Herro. I know someone in the Golden State organization has been high on him for years. Don't get wrong Joey is the deal and huge grab for us if he can stay healthy.

Herro increased his status playing EYBL this summer, which has helped him develop a lot. Herro is 25 and Hauser is 49 on ESPN rankings right now. Herro has great shot at Mcdonalds. Herro is more of a 5 star and Hauser is 4. Both great players though.

The coveted prize is Jalen Johnson right now. Hopefully we can learn from our mistakes with Herro and get this kid. Landing him would gives us legitimate show at a National Title.

Now the Marquette staff will shift their attention to the point guard position and try to close out their class with Quentin Grimes who is the final piece to their puzzle.

With no schollies available, does Wojo oversign Grimes, knowing someone is leaving or is it in case someone leaves?  Obviously, with a talent like Grimes, you take him if he wants to come to MU but not sure if that means someone gets pole-axed.

Post by: muwarrior69 on July 24, 2017, 11:00:06 AM
Mods, feel free to remove this if you don't want this here but because it's behind a paywall I figured I'd post

ESPN 100 forward Joey Hauser verbally committed to Marquette on Sunday, choosing the Golden Eagles over Iowa State, Notre Dame, Purdue, Northwestern and Wisconsin. Here's a look at what he'll bring to Milwaukee.

Why he committed: Head coach Steve Wojciechowski has been recruiting Hauser longer and harder than anyone else and the dividends paid with his commitment. Hauser's older brother Sam will be a junior on the team when Joey arrives on campus. The reality of playing together and accomplishing something special at Marquette was definitely a factor in his decision. Hauser has witnessed tremendous growth in the program and feels he could be vital piece towards the Eagles taking the next step.

"I think the family connection was too tough to pass up," according to Greg Stephens, his AAU coach. "Not only playing with his older brother but also allowing his parents and family to get to all his home games was big."

What he brings: A strong four man who is bouncy with the talent to drain three’s, beat defenders off the dribble with a drive game against like sized and bigger opponents. Hauser is a multiple position player at both ends of the floor. He stretches out a defense with his shooting ability and will get them into a full closeout and possible defensive rotations. In the paint and from the mid post area he will post up or face up and score with touch. More importantly if the defense switches he will then immediately roll into the paint and post the smaller defender. Defensively he switches comfortably with most guards and forwards due to his size and length. His footwork, fundamentals and ability to finish drives make him special. Marquette was not a strong rebounding team last year and look for Hauser to provide immediate help on the glass.


How he fits: Marquette will only be losing one senior next season in point guard Andrew Rowsey. The Golden Eagles led the nation in shooting three's in 2016-17, hitting over 50% from distance. Hauser fits right into the Eagles system as he will be an extremely valuable forward who will screen and pop to space the floor. One of the areas Marquette was not strong in was rebounding as a team and look for Hauser to change that when he steps on campus. His role will first be as a passer, complimentary scorer and rebounder. Marquette fans can expect Hauser to slide into the role of an impact player as a sophomore.

Who he reminds us of: When you look at his size, skills and frame he is similar to Austin Nichols who was a top 20 recruit coming out of high school. Hauser is stronger at the same stage and more of a gym rat. But the mismatch ability along with the shooting touch as a forward is in the same category.

How the class is shaping up: This is the first commitment in 2018 for the staff and it propels recruiting momentum as they head into the last period of the July recruiting calendar. Now the Marquette staff will shift their attention to the point guard position and try to close out their class with Quentin Grimes who is the final piece to their puzzle. The Golden Eagles also will have transfer Ed Morrow (Nebraska) as part of their 2018 class along with forward Brendan Bailey who will be 21 years old and back from his Mormon mission trip. For the first time under Wojciechowski this program will have a battle tested older roster in 2018 and will have a chance to stay old, which is a recipe for success in college basketball.

So who is transferring or who are we dumping or does ESPN not realize we have no more schollies?

Absolutely.  We have lost at least one player due to transfer every year under Wojo's regime.  Someone will be the odd man out with playing time.  It's part of the process of today's college basketball game.

ESPN is historically the most inaccurate of the recruiting services. And that is one of the only ones (maybe the only one) that has Herro above Hauser. 247composite which combines a lot of the main recruiting services has Hauser at #35 and Herro at #40. And given all the comments that Freeport and other insiders have made about their attitudes....the difference is even greater in Joey's favor.

Don't get me wrong, Herro is a great player and will do well at Bucky (or somewhere else). Would love it if he had committed to MU. I think you just hurt yourself with the hyperbole you've used to describe Herro.

Jalen Johnson should definitely be a priority for the 2020 class. But he strikes as more of a top 75 kid. Solid player, want him, but I don't think he will be as make or break as you seem to be implying.

Not just bad... borderline pitiful, really.  It's one thing to troll ironically or in a "so bad it's funny" kind of way, but I don't think this guy is trolling at all; the word choice, the timing, the themes, the ignorance... it's just so remedial that the only logical explanation here is that the poor sap actually believes what he's writing.

You know Herro has his eyes set on much bigger fish than MU or WI. And with regards to the "mistakes" we made with Herro, we were on him early -- but Gard made him his first phone call. Get over it. WI without Hurt or Joey sure changes things on all those nattys.

And for the others who are laughing about the Hayward comparison, it is not as laughable as one would think. He isn't 6' 2" -- He looks to be all of 6' 5" or 6' 6". The kid works on his game 24/7 and is a total gym rat. I'm not saying he will be an NBA all-star, but I think he does have a good shot at making it to the next level. If he matures and gets away from papa, who knows? I could see him at Kentucky, NC or Duke after a year at prep. Will be interesting to see how the next 6 weeks go.

Is it safe for me to re-state my clear opinion that Joey Hauser is over-rated yet? I was down-voted into oblivion 6 months ago when I tried to speak some sense into this board about his future as a player.

The kid is definitely a high-major talent and I would be happy if the Badgers landed him but his prospects as a player are very limited IMO. Too slow and not athletic enough to play the wing. Not physical enough, tall enough or athletic enough to dominate on the interior.

He will certainly have a nice career because he can shoot the rock but any thoughts of him being as dominant as his ranking may suggest are way off the mark. I expect him to have a very similar career to his brother... The multitude of tools just aren't there.

I'm very late to the party, so let me chime in with ...

YES!

I already had been very happy about the direction of the program under Wojo, and this just adds to that. It would be cool to know what he says to these recruits and their parents, because he must be quite a salesman.

A secondary pleasure has been reading about the tears in Buckyland - and of course also beating out ND, a school I still hate with every fiber of my being.

A tertiary pleasure: Seeing muguru and willie actually happy about something!

Finally, I of course take credit for Joey choosing MU. As was the case with Henry, Markus, etc, I didn't change my screen name.

Oh, c'mon, Sultan, allow scoop to bask in the glory of the win a little.  Personally I liked these:

"Wojo needed this one.   He may start to win a bit now and then it's only a matter of time before he leaves Marquette.  They are putting together a pretty nice roster at Marquette with this addition.   There is no doubt Marquette has benefited from the unusual circumstance of two older brothers being good enough to get offered by Marquette and not Wisconsin, followed closely by two more talented younger brothers who were both interested in playing with their older brothers.  Maybe the younger Ellenson and Hauser still pick Marquette without their brothers there, the odds would be much longer though."

and:

"What a special opportunity--to suit up and play with his brother, again. It's tough to blame the kid. College is temporary, but he will have a lifetime with his brother talking about how they almost made it to the NCAA tournament and how close they team became during the coaching change. Special times."

And apparently the biggest fish in the world has its eyes on him (the Golden State Warriors).

That reminds me.  Does anyone remember when some Scooper revealed that the Sacramento Kings had a high interest in Trent Lockett?  And then we all laughed.  And then the Kings signed Lockett to their d-league affiliate (and he may have even played in some Kings preseason games, IIRC).  Was that Scooper someone from Lockett's camp or someone with NBA connections?

What a beautiful day.  Ok now that the news is out let me clear the air.

1) Not recruiting Sam was one of the worst decisions made by UWBB in a long time.
2) Joey is a big football fan and wanting to go to a school that had a team was something on his wish list. In the end it was the only thing that he had to work around in coming to MU.
3) That is why ND popped up in the end.  To be honest, if I had to bet that if it was not MU it was going to be ND.
4) I have no idea why Evan flood had  the thought he had.  It was just the opposite of what I saw and that is that if it was  UW, MSU and MU it would be MU
5) MSU no because of distance (Driving) and overload of players.
6) UW no because of not great feelings about staff/administration.  JH liked most of the players, but it was not the "Families" first choice, but Joey was encourage to make his own choice.
7) Everyone knows that Sam was a big part, but don't underestimate how much Markus was too.   The 3 are really close.
8) Yes QG is still a target and they are now have another strong point to share with him on why MU would be a great choice.
9) Said it before, will say it again.  Theo is a bad man on the court. That was a sentiment shared by JFB, so it is not just my impression.
10) Have heard a lot in the last 24 hours about Herro.  He was convinced JH was coming to UW with him and now frustration there is no plan b or c.  The all in strategy with JH was a poor one, especially in light of the significant obstacles that were in the way for a successful recruitment.

I have to get this in too.  Wojo has developed a very good sense of where they stand with recruits.  He knew Joey was close so Wojo put the full court press on "pun intended" to close the deal.  So when it comes to QG he is not wasting his time, unless he feels that there is still an opening.  Landing Joey was big on itself, but it was step one of a 1-2 punch.  QG was told the plan and now delivering on the plan can only help.  I still don't think we are in a strong position, but we are in a better one and I think we should at least get a visit now.

That is the next hurdle for Wojo is getting a 5 start that does not have any "special" connection to MU. 

Stan seems really excited about  one "big time" recruit for 2019.  No name, just that he is really excited about it. 

Finally if anyone knows who stated that Joey had given a "soft" commit to UW please call them on it.  That was total BS.

I'm not understanding how I am a troll if all I am suggesting is we look into getting Herro to commit with Joey.  It wouldn't be that hard to get him to switch either as he is tight with Herro.  We need to do something to elevate our program to where UW has gotten the last 4-5 years.  Talking down their commits and recruits which is commonly done on this board is not going to get us there.

You created you account TODAY to post just on this topic. And while this thread is about Joey''s commitment, you won't stop posting about how Herro (is it pronounced "her-ro" or "he-ro"?  As someone that doesn't live in Wisconsin, I have never heard of this kid) and Joey need to play together.  Wojo seem's to think he got the best of the pair.

I am not surprised NBA scouts are looking at Herro. I know someone in the Golden State organization has been high on him for years. Don't get wrong Joey is the deal and huge grab for us if he can stay healthy.

Herro increased his status playing EYBL this summer, which has helped him develop a lot. Herro is 25 and Hauser is 49 on ESPN rankings right now. Herro has great shot at Mcdonalds. Herro is more of a 5 star and Hauser is 4. Both great players though.

The coveted prize is Jalen Johnson right now. Hopefully we can learn from our mistakes with Herro and get this kid. Landing him would gives us legitimate show at a National Title.

I actually have a lot of NBA sources and they say they would never touch Herro.

They usually note that he just doesn't have what it takes to be a winner. All around poor skills. No clutch gene.

1 scout even said to me "is basketball really his sport of choice?".

Kansas has around 30 offers in play right now. They epitomize the scattershot approach to recruiting.  I don't think they will invest much time in a guy who is already committed who wasn't near the top of their big board.

So...this is the "guy" that badger fans bow down to because he correctly predicted herro to UW before anyone else, and correctly predicted a football player commit..Obviously he's not as much of an "insider" as they think he is, but I truly believe this is where all the "Joey to UW chatter originated from". he missed on this bad, and deserves to be called out for it..

It started with this in 2016...

Not exactly sure what the deal was before, but heard from someone that I believe to have very solid information that Hauser is a strong Wisconsin lean with the more recent update the GG will be retained full time. Seems to be 90/10 chance he will be a badger. Nothing else to say really but thought it was worth passing along. Recruiting in the next 3 years looks promising.

This was from April...

Just wanted to touch base on this. I know a lot has been said about Hauser, family relationship, interest in Mara, etc. but I have still heard from my same source that earlier statements remain true. He is a Wisconsin lean and does not like to be too public with his recruiting or thinking. I wouldn't call it a lock as of now, or he would've committed, but sticking with 90/10 chance that we land him. He does want to team up with Herro and really likes the 2017 class. I really feel that this is going to happen. That is all for now.

-AJM

June 28th...


Not sure what happened to the update I heard a few weeks ago, but it sounds like he's backed down from the earlier commitment to probably respect Marquette and/or msu through an official visit. Still have gotten confirmation from my original source that he has decided on UW and only a matter of time, so maybe just a little bit longer to wait. Today's CC is the first time I've sensed a change in tone more broadly that he is going to pick UW.

2 days later...with a GUARANTEE

I mean I didn't want to anger the board or prompt doubters like in the past, combined with him continuing to drag out the decision slightly longer than I was told, but he is 100% committing UW. Only way that changes is maybe if Wojo straight up tells him Sam is gone if he doesn't go there. Book it.

5 days ago...I guess gard wasn't so happy..

 Jul 19, 8:44 AM via Mobile


While the CC has some solid Joey updates this morning, I'm still very confident in what I was told that Gard and co. will be very happy after their talk this week.

And finally...after Joey's commit..he mentioned in one more post that the first part was a joke about marquette being Wisconsin..

I guess my source kept relaying "Wisconsin" but he thought Marquette was Wisconsin. So the July timing was also correct just misunderstood the team. But really, must've done some deep soul searching and decided he can make it from anywhere and would rather be with his brother. Probably a much worse decision for all of the reasons already stated, but on to the next. I'll make sure to get you guys another good scoop to make up for it, but don't forget about Herro and JT quite yet!

Absolute pure gold how they were hanging on every word he said.  :)

From Rivals.com

Everywhere four-star forward Joey Hauser went during the months of April or July, Steve Wojciechowski was right there with him. It paid off.

WOJO'S PERSISTENCE PAYS OFF
Joey Hauser
Power forward
4 STARS
Stevens Point
Stevens Point, WI
Ht: 6'8"
Wt: 210 lbs
Class: 2018
-
POSITION
43
NATIONAL
-
STATE
Commitment status:
VERBAL COMMIT
Marquette

When I spoke to Joey Hauser on Saturday, he admitted that he was real close to making a decision. I asked him if rumors that he could decide before playing in the Adidas event in Las Vegas this week and he would only commit to saying on record that he could decide in the next few weeks. Clearly he was ready to go as he committed to Marquette on Sunday night.

Yes, Hauser's brother is there and has been a solid player. But, it wasn't just family ties that got him to say yes. It had a lot to do with the effort of Steve Wojciechowski and the time he took prioritizing Hauser. Wherever Hauser and the Iowa Barnstormers were in April or July, you could count on Wojo being right there and you could usually count on him having an assistant or two with him.

Hauser should be a terrific fit in Milwaukee. He's a tough and skilled player who can give minutes at the small or power forward and he should arrive on campus ready to produce from day one.

To add to some Badger tears I present this tweet:

https://twitter.com/blak_adonis/status/889526937076600835

Coach Fish is the coach of George Conditt, a three star prospect who some were postulating as Bucky's backup in case they didn't get Hauser.

There were many Badger fans, including some who came here to post, who bragged about how Gard made Joey his only offer for the 2018 class. Honestly, that seemed like a dumb and desperate tactic based more on trying to guilt Joey into committing than impressing him. Seemed like a low reward, high risk tactic to me. Some of that risk might end up biting them in the rear.

EDIT: I also add this tweet convo:

More evidence as to why fans shouldn't tweet at recruits.

6) UW no because of not great feelings about staff/administration.  JH liked most of the players, but it was not the "Families" first choice, but Joey was encourage to make his own choice.
7) Everyone knows that Sam was a big part, but don't underestimate how much Markus was too.   The 3 are really close.
8) Yes QG is still a target and they are now have another strong point to share with him on why MU would be a great choice.
9) Said it before, will say it again.  Theo is a bad man on the court. That was a sentiment shared by JFB, so it is not just my impression.
10) Have heard a lot in the last 24 hours about Herro.  He was convinced JH was coming to UW with him and now frustration there is no plan b or c.  The all in strategy with JH was a poor one, especially in light of the significant obstacles that were in the way for a successful recruitment.

I have to get this in too.  Wojo has developed a very good sense of where they stand with recruits.  He knew Joey was close so Wojo put the full court press on "pun intended" to close the deal.  So when it comes to QG he is not wasting his time, unless he feels that there is still an opening.  Landing Joey was big on itself, but it was step one of a 1-2 punch.  QG was told the plan and now delivering on the plan can only help.  I still don't think we are in a strong position, but we are in a better one and I think we should at least get a visit now.

That is the next hurdle for Wojo is getting a 5 start that does not have any "special" connection to MU. 

Stan seems really excited about  one "big time" recruit for 2019.  No name, just that he is really excited about it. 

Finally if anyone knows who stated that Joey had given a "soft" commit to UW please call them on it.  That was total BS.

Over and Out....

Huge get boys. It didn't look good at one point. Still kind of bitter sweet though since UW has Herro. He took apart the NY2LA Summer Jam field this weekend and continues his push towards greatest Wisconsin high school player ever.

I actually have a lot of NBA sources and they say they would never touch Herro.

They usually note that he just doesn't have what it takes to be a winner. All around poor skills. No clutch gene.

1 scout even said to me "is basketball really his sport of choice?".

You're as bad as Herro's daddy.

Just remind them it's Bo Ryans fault because he was cheating instead of recruiting Sam.

Actually, that's not true...what i have learned from the badger boards in the last day or so is that UW COULDN'T offer Sam, because they needed a PG in that class, and that was communicated with Sam, and that he understood. I'm serious, that's what many are claiming... ::)

Regarding the 2019 class. Ideally, I'm hoping the two high school teammates from Texas are a package deal of sorts. One fills the need at PG and I think Wilson is very talented as well. I know Stan is lead recruiter for both.

My understanding is Bo asked Sam to wait until Spring to commit because he may have had another scholarship to give then (which he did, when Riley Dearring transferred).  I guess Sam wasn't interested in waiting to see if he could be someone's second fiddle.

That goes without saying.

The interesting challenge comes a year from now when Joey shows up on campus. As best I can tell, we have the pieces in place for the beginning of something special. Depth is emerging at every position on the floor and on the bench. Our guys are now Wojo's guys.

The challenge: Getting them to play defense, to play as a unit and to grow. My biggest rap on the Hillbilly was that when he recruited four star specials, it took a very long time to get anything close to their potential -- unless they were juices. Coach Wojo has to get the most out of these guys and fast!

I hate the red rodent as much as anyone in here. But I give ole Dracula credit. He took three star recruits and made it to the Final Four. Several of those three stars ended up in the NBA. If Wojo does that and we make it worth his while, we'll have a tremendous run!

The Miracle Worker Tales of Bo continue. In fact, Bo was a great recruiter, especially for his system. I never knew why his cultists downplayed his recruiting chops with this revisionist myth of him recruiting 2-3 star players and making them into NBA players. I think this hurt him (Tokoto, Blue, Stone, Looney) more than it helped him (Gasser).

Isn't it pretty much widely accepted that ESPN is the worst of the rating sites? Obviously they were more correct on this one but all the same we can't knock people who source that sometimes and accept it others

I'd say a better example of Bo working with three star guys is Taylor. Don't get me wrong people vastly overrate his coaching up abilities but let's also remember many of his four star guys were rated similar to our four star guys that were pretty much duds (Williams, Jones, Taylor, Anderson)

I must have missed Taylor's NBA debut. The OP several of the Final Four three stars made it to the NBA.

Dekker was a Top 20. Fact is, a RSCI service had Frank, Nigel, Ben, Koenig as a four star. Only two have made the NBA from that team yet. Koenig does have a two way but a four star. Gasser was a bigger overachiever than Frank, IMO.

In dgies defense, he didn't say explicitly that several FF three-stars made it to the NBA.  Maybe that's what he meant.  Maybe that's what we interpreted, but Imma gonna go all logic & grammar police here anyway because someone switched out the decaf with the full-leaded stuff this morning... a conjunction is not an if/then, so there's three statements there.

Statement 1: "[Bo] took three star recruits."  True.
Statement 2: "Bo made it to the Final Four."  True.
Statement 3: "Several of those three stars ended up in the NBA."  Forget statement 2... it's an independent thought from Statement 1 and therefore irrelevant to Statement 3.  The only mention of three star recruits prior to Statement 3 were in Statement 1, ergo the object of the preposition in Statement 3 are the three star recruits alluded to in Statement 1, or in other words, just the plain ol' three-stars that Bo recruited (not just those that went to the Final Four).  Otherwise, if the three stars  in Statement 3 were meant to be three-stars in the Final four, statements 1 and 2 would have been combined into a single, non-conjunctive sentence, i.e. "He took three star recruits to the Final Four."

So the question is did several three-stars that Bo recruited during his career end up in the NBA, and the answer is: who the hell cares.

Here's where you lose us. You claim to be realistic and then say that Herro is the greatest basketball player that the state has ever seen. That is so far from realistic that I don't know where to start. He's not even rated as the top player from Wisconsin in his class (that would be Joey).

Here's where you lose us. You claim to be realistic and then say that Herro is the greatest basketball player that the state has ever seen. That is so far from realistic that I don't know where to start. He's not even rated as the top player from Wisconsin in his class (that would be Joey).

Some other famous names that might disagree: Terry Porter, Fred Brown, Jim Chones, Don Kojis, Latrell Sprewell, Caron Butler, Nick Van Exel, Henry Ellenson, Kevon Looney, Diamond Stone, Devin Harris, Joe Wolf, Tony Smith, Kurt Nimphius.

Nationally he is ranked higher then Joey and in the mind of many many D1 programs. Some Wisconsin Mark Miller ranking is insignificant really. That is a nice list of players no doubt. Some great players on there. He is doing more things on a national level then anyone on this list did at the same age.

I live in New Jersey and am connected to a high school program. I've never heard of this kid, much less seen him play the game.

The only things he's doing on a national level are taking place between your ears.

Like what?  What things is he doing in a national level that no other player on that list has done?

And no. Herro is rated below Joey on national rankings.  247composite combines all the major services and has Joey at 35 and Herro at 40. So the local and the national rankings disagree with you.

If you're (yes, I think you're Tyler Herro and not his Dad) as good as you think, why are you going to Wisconsin?  It's Wisconsin!  It's not ' Dook.  It's not UCLA.  It's not Kentucky.  It's not North Carolina or Kansas.  It's flippin' Wisconsin and they blow almost as much as ND. 

Good luck at Wisky without Joey.

Very sad how I get bashed by my fellow Alumni here. I think my posts are very informative and straight to the point. I am happy about Joey bottom line. I am not a troll. I want to beat UW bad the next 4-5 years. I love MU.

I am also realistic about Herro's greatness and realize getting by him is the main hurdle for MU's program. With Herro and Hauser brothers I think we could have seriously contended for a National Title.

I think Herro's dad gets bad rap on here also. He made his kid work from third grade up. He wasn't some helicopter parent that was constantly coddling his kid. He didn't let his kid ever receive a participation trophy. No entitlements or privilege here and that my fellow Alumni is why Tyler Herro is great and most likely the best player this state has ever seen.

Looney was rsci 11 stone was rsci 7 ellenson was rsci 9. Herro is impressive but not some generational talent that has never existed in Wisconsin before.

He is certainly a part of the considerable upgrade of talent Wisconsin has seen lately but the state has seen multiple players of equal or greater talent lately as well.

I'd like to apologize to you Cheesy on behalf of the board here.  I get hammered too and at end of the day I am an MU fan as well.  Way so over UW.  I agree with you on Herro to an extent but he is committed to UW for now.  Rumblings are he may opt to switch out and as Freeport said I think earlier in week he will go to much more prestigious program than MU if he goes.  I'm hearing Kentucky, Duke or AZ as well if he opts out.  Again, I look over to the left and see only 4 teams below MU in conference from last year and Fischer at top of player of the game from last season.  Why would Herro come here???  These guys are way too into a program that carries that record.  I'm an MU fan but not a die hard like them.  MU sweaters are a little too tight and they get a little too warm and fired up during "jump around" song during games with their alum leader......"sir dork" (guy always on tv)

His neck has improved. Unfortunately he suffered a broken tibia playing in the U 20 in Greece and may be out for the season.

Wojo did not have the opportunity to sign Kostas because of his academic issues and we had Ike , Theo and Frohling already in the mix. I think it was a case of our needs and Kostas circumstances not lining up.

Hopefully we can be in the mix for his younger brother Alexis.

This is simply wrong. Kostas committed in June 2016. Ike Eke committed only 4 days earlier, Theo John wouldn't commit for another 3 months, and Harry Froling hadn't even enrolled at SMU yet, much less been "already in the mix".

Marquette didn't pursue Kostas because they didn't want him. Maybe academics played a part, but MU never had serious involvement, and if they thought there was a high level talent just a few minutes up I-43, they would've at least looked into getting him eligible.

Maybe Kostas will surprise, but based on the involvement of high major programs (or rather lack thereof), it seems a lot more likely he simply isn't that good.

Texas Western was Dawson's brother, I believe. Either Dawson or some relative of JJ. He was also Ners' primary source when Ners became the Dawson Family Insider.

Wasn't Nevada233 a part of the Dawson clan?

Yeah, I think so.

Interesting note on Texas Western...his last post was on February 19, 2015, about a month after Dawson transferred. Two days later, MUFINY created his account. Coincidence?

No coincidence, it is pretty well documented that MUFINY is Texas Western, as well as having several other aliases such as Gus Ganakas

no idea if this is a little "chico derangement" going on.  i would suspect it more with the vermin, but we do seem to have a few of the same types round these parts as well, hmmmmmmm. 

  my well placed sources tell me this is a bunch of hock-looey and chico hasn't been sighted in those parts for a long-long time.  his influence must hover like a specter over there as well.  keeping in mind that some of those posting over there held timothy leary in high regard

Rocky/Topper... is there a way to make the IP analyzer public (e.g. the "this username might be the same as this username" report) without actually disclosing IP addresses?  Otherwise, what the hell, make the IP's public and let people draw their own conclusions?

That's got to be a sign of a troubled individual, right? Like someone who has two separate families at the same time. Why would you do that? Who has that kind of time? How do you keep it all straight? Not normal.

Just to take it back to the topic:

Almost every Badger fan I know, and it's a lot, was sure Joey was going to UW.  They couldn't see any reason why a player of his caliber would go to Marquette.  Haven't heard from them.

First time I've seen Joey. He's very fundamentally sound. On defense they had him playing under the basket as the rim protector in a 2-1-2 or 2-3 zone.Very ineffective down there, hope he can guard on the perimeter.

Welp, bad news is D1 Minnesota doesn't get to play Iowa tomorrow. Good news is Iowa's game is at noon pacific, but would have been 9:20am... 9:20am game would be difficult for me to see much of... noon I plan to be there.

More bad news... Iowa faces Yes II Success, who lost to Minnesota, but won the Gauntlet a couple of weeks ago. Their stud Charles Bassey was held to 8 pts (zero in second half) tonight and he'll be in attack mode against Joey and company. (btw, former uw-madison player Hennssy Auriantal was recently fired from his HS asst coaching job due to his dealings with Bassey.. tsk, tsk, I'm really a badger fan?)

Making the noon game very interesting for me... is that in the same building that Joey plays... down a couple courts Quentin Grimes will also be playing. I may do a little jogging between courts over the noon hour.
