Pre Season Freshmen Of The Year

[bigdawg]

Notes
AAU Team: Illinois Wolves...Illinois, Wake Forest, Indiana, Iowa and Purdue also showed interest...Transferred to Bolingbrook for his senior year...Withdrew from Wisconsin following his arrest on charges of burglary and underage drinking (9/09)...Transferred to Southern Illinois...

Isn't the comment in bold on the ESPN anaylsis the reason he's at SIU? He might be a player, but he's got some serious baggage.

[WuDrWu]

going to go with UE newest recruit
Jordan Jahr: "Jordan can really shoot it. He has good size, good range, passes the ball well, and knows how to handle the ball.

Shouldn't you be able to make another conference team first?

[WuDrWu]

wrdrwu likely is referring to Odom I'd guess...RJ Mahurin (the other redshirt frosh) does remind my bro a little of Dane Watts so he could surprise some but Odom is a true PG w/ some quicks...my only question for him is will he get enough PT? He could if Jake Kelly plays off guard...

I think I'll go with Rayvonte Rice as well...easy pick yes but somebody has to fill in for Young as the go to scorer on the team.

Did Odom or RJ go to Europe LittleE?

R. Rice

[Shockerfan13]

Whats up losers. Making my first appearance here and going to be a homer. Since SIU should suck so much, playing time should be plentiful. I know he isn't eligible until 2nd semester but I am going to go with Diamond Taylor. He originally signed with Wisconsin, a Big 10 transfer, even one that never played should dominate the Valley right.

Tony Freeman round 2....

Jake Kelly is going to the NBA.

I guess you might have to look at who is going to have a freshman who is expected to play a big role for their team. My guess for now would be Rice with Drake since they will be looking for someone to fill Young's scoring shoes. I don't know that WSU or MSU will be needing any freshman to step into big roles.

SIU has Taylor who may be asked to do a lot, but that also assumes Lowery has figured out how to put in an offense.

I'll throw a name out there from UNI. Chip Rank. He comes in and may step into Adam Koch's starting spot at the 4 (Jake Koch can/has/does play the 5). 6'6" strong player with demeanor that has been described as similar to Lucas O'Rear but with a good shooting touch. We also have a RS Fr guard who has a chance to fill the Ali role, but I think he will be a reserve this year behind Sonnen and James.

Colt Ryan. Again.

He's just that amazing.

Sorry Wu...that was RJ...he was a little gimpy over there so didn't light things up much. I remember my brother speaking highly of him last year when introducing him to some people after the Drake away game...he may have just been in good spirits after notching the road W though?
