He will be tough to land but I sure hope we can get him. Reminds me of several of those guys that McDermott went after early that ended up at Wisconsin and now are in the NBA. Jon Leuer type player w/ perhaps better ball skill at this age

Nice quick shot. And a quick step and good second bounce for put-backs. Don't expect any of those things from someone 6'9" and 200 lbs.

In addition to ISU and 3 schools mentioned in the article for unofficial visits, others on 24/7 list: Stanford, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Purdue, Northwestern, K-State and Davidson. Stanford is only one listed as “warm,” the rest are labeled cool. Probably too soon to worry about that.

He's running!

Hope they can get this kid locked up early since he is a legacy recruit!

Was his dad a basketball player? Just curious if his dad attended the Alumni weekend Prohm had.

Yes, his dad Marc played 2 years for Orr. Played in 9 games his 1st year and averaged 4.1 ppg his second year in 93-94. Originally from Ft. Dodge. I don't know if he transferred when Tim Floyd came in or came in as a Juco. If Tim Floyd ran him out, that could be a concern. He did tend to do that to a lot of guys.

He transferred to Iowa State for his final two years.
