Recruiting as of 1/15/26

[Zog from Margo]

For the record, I didn't say Kager is Steve Novak without a jump shot but Steve did have superior skills. In HS, Steve had more elevation on his jumper, set his feet quicker, and had a quicker release.

Kager shoots more like Ben Gold, except not as flat.  Good shooter but not as dynamic as Novak (or Sam Hauser or Milan Momcilivic) in HS.

From the little I've seen, I don't get the Novak or Momcilivic comparisons. Knueppel seems to play more of a ballhandling role. Given that Novak is either the best or second best shooter in MU history, it doesn't surprise me that he doesn't shoot as well as Novak. Knueppel moves better than Novak. WLHS is way better than Novak's Bown Deer team so WLHS is not dependent on Kager. I only saw Hauser as a senior so I'll have to wait until next year to see if they compare. Zens appears to be the leader on this year's WLHS team. Kager isn't a one and done so maybe his brothers will join him wherever he goes.
