Recruiting as of 7/15/25

[Newsdreams]

I cannot believe Hank didn't bring me onto the team in 1980 based upon my outstanding play in intramurals.

I mean, I once made 2 shots in a row. Pretty sure that's better than anything Greg Shimon ever did!!

But could you dunk in high school?

But could you dunk in high school?

Yes ... on an 8-foot rim. Also, Nerf basketball.

OK...and?

The coaching staff has at least gone to one of his games I believe. He is a potential MU target.

We live in a performance based society.  If the kid can ball it shouldn't matter who else recruits him

The sad part, at least as it relates to the quality of MU basketball while I was there, is that I watched Roman Muller practice post moves (by himself, unguarded) at the Rec Center, and I know without a doubt that I was a better basketball player than he was.  And I wasn't good.  Unfortunately I also wasn't 7' 1".

Well done.

[GB Warrior]

Well done.

I don't want him unless SLU wants him.

I couldn't believe we recuited that Markus Howard kid when he had an offer from Central Arkansas...or that Sam Hauser kid with his UWGB and Drake offers.

I mean powerhouse Rodent was not very interested in Sam. But that was probably academics related, hey?

Davante was offered by a grand total of one other school: South Florida.

Stupid Buzz.

USF did show him a good time at the Cheesecake Factory.  So Buzz did have to overcome that.

Remember when MU had to beat out Illinois State and Bradley for some kid named Wade?

He would have crawled on his hands and knees over hot coals to go to Indiana though.

BS.  Sam is smart.  Much smarter than any Badger.

Guess should have used teal 

[Stretchdeltsig]

Definitely.

Guys

Wade is greatest MU player and once in a lifetime get. If UWM is recruiting the kid, 99.9999% a pass for MU.

Umm is that teal? Uwm has offered every high major kid from the Milwaukee area in recent memory. Herro, Looney, Stone, Poole and why wouldn't they.  Doesn't cost them anything.   Polk is a 2020 6'3 pg in our backyard, not sure why we wouldn't be tracking him closely and having him at every game.

I wouldn't say that. Polk is a 2020 kid.  A lot of low majors try to land kids by being the first school there with the longest relationship. Most players who end up at high majors were also recruited by low majors...especially this early in the process.
