Is this a good get? I don't really know anything about him and it looks like the only high majors recruiting him were us and Xavier. Watched a couple youtube highlights and doesn't really seem too fluid or athletic to me, but it's hard to tell a lot from those kind of clips.He is 6'10" though, so that's nice to start getting some size on the board. Anyways, welcome to Marquette!!

Might be reporting from the same source, 24/7 updated as wel:

So we went from recruiting 4 star studs and JC all-americans with Buzz; to recruiting 3 star Kids from Neenah who were considering Lehigh and Drake?

Mark Miller @WisBBYearbook  ·  19m
Matt Heldt, ranked third in the state in 2015 by http://wissports.net, joins Nick Noskowiak in the 2015 recruiting class at Marquette.

If he's third in the state, I would think that puts him behind Stone and Ellenson and ahead of Noskowiak.

[Aughnanure]

ESPN ranks him as 4-stars, right outside top 100.

Welcome to MU, young Mr. Heldt.   May your career be productive, may your critics be silenced by your play.

He's 6'10" and can hit a three.  I like it but here's the lowdown from Paint Touches...

Can see him moving into the top 100 at some point during the season.

Yeah kids like Stone and Ellenson.

Geez.

Now we don't even wait for the kid to enroll before we say he's not good enough?

Where are you getting 3 stars from? Solid big who's on the rise and most importantly, he can shoot.

He's low on their 4 star rating scale with an 81.  Nick, for example, is an 86 but also a 4 star.  Heldt is ranked 4th in the state.  Rivals has him unranked.  Scouts and 24/7 have him as a 3 star.  Good news is that Xavier had recently offered.  Michigan and Indiana were starting to talk to him, so he is looked at as an up and comer in some circles.

[The Lens]

Can we take him and Ellenson?  Is that realistic?  Can I assume that he might be more of developing player who will look to start as an upperclassmen whereas Ellenson could be gone by then?

We could absolutely take him and Ellenson. They could play together in the frontcourt.

Good to see you wanting to point out our newest recruit's lowest rankings.

[WellsstreetWanderer]

6'10" and can shoot. That combination has worked out before so I am optimistic

Traditional U. I like it. Great way to go up against UW, hey?

[ChicosBailBonds]

Wait, did you really just say that?  WTF.  You asked where is someone getting 3 stars from.  The answer was provided to you, from two recruiting services.  YOU asked, then you make that kind of statement when someone provided you with the information?  I also called him an up and comer, by the way.

For the record, his lowest rankings is with Rivals, no stars.

"Heldt was receiving interest from Wisconsin, Clemson, Colorado, Gonzaga, Vanderbilt, and others.
Opting to end his recruitment before the July evaluation period later this month, the 6-foot-10, 225-pound center wasn't concerned with other offers that may have come his way."

"I'm not out here to rack up as many offers I can," he said. "I want to play at a school I really liked and really liked me. Marquette was a perfect fit. I could just feel it. It ended up being before the July period, but it's the right fit for me."
