Who's Mike Tisdale?

[4everwarriors]

The Illinois center looks like a total dufus but is kicking ass in the Big 10. Where's he from and what was he rated coming out of high school? Why can't we get a cat like this?

Mike Tisdale is a very skilled, finesse player.  I don't think he would help us take the next step in the Big East and I doubt he could bang down low with Lazar Hayward.

Mike's not a banger, but he always had his heart set on Illinois.  Pretty much begged for a scholarship, and Weber was hesitant for a while before offering.  I'm sure he's glad he offered now.  I know the family - good people.

#125 overall by Rivals in 2007, #12 center. Think Scout had him fairly similarly ranked.
