What are the odds that is Ike's actual uniform? I'd find it surprising if they just had blank one's sitting around. Remember when Abdou committed and they put him in David's jersey? :lol:

Don't a lot of recruits get their photo taken with a uniform on? I've seen it with football and women's basketball.

Yes, but those sports don't have last names on. Like football and women's basketball have closets full of left over "generic" jerseys that recruits can put on. I just have a feeling if they showed the back it would say, "Gassman." Nothing wrong with it, but an observation.

I'm all for a diamond in the rough, but I don't see where this guy is a PG. Isn't he gonna be in the Copeland mode as a true wing that Muller's gonna try to "make" into a PG? We've heard that song before . . . .

Just going by his high school and juco numbers, played in 18 games at Northeastern with 0 starts, about 5 min/game, he at least seems to be capable in the assist department:

HS: 18 pts./6 rebs/7 assists/2 steals per game.
Juco: 13.7 pts./6.6 rebs/4.0 assists per game. Team leader had 5.1 and another 6-4 guard also had 4.0 per game, seemed to share the assist duties. The numbers can be looked at in a variety of ways and also would reflect team personnel and coaching philosophy, but there at least appears to be a history of that skill set vs. not and DM hoping he and the coaches can add that to his game.

Really wanting to get him signed. Everything I have heard about him says he is a pass first defensive minded point guard.

I'd be a little surprised if we didn't get him. As I said a few days ago, I just have a feeling about this one. I'm not a fan of how its all playing out with the top 3 and everything, but that is todays recruitment game. Human natures says he probably knows where he is going already, and is just doing the top 3 for the theatrics. All just personal preference there.

2 Adidas schools and a Nike School. No shoe allegiance with this kid apparently.

I thought you had a feeling. Tough losing these guys to these big time programs.
