The UNI Panther's have offered their final scholly to Vas'hun Newborne, a 6'7 PF Juco from Chipola JC, Florida.
The St. Louis Billikens are also recruiting Newborne heavily and have offered a scholly as well. Newborne visited St. Louis this past weekend and should be making his decision soon, and from what I've heard (hearsay, secondhand, rumors, etc.) it's down to UNI and St. Louis.
It's kind of ironic that the coach for St. Louis, is former Wisconsin coach, and UNI Head BB candidate/finalist, Brad Soderberg. Not that he ever had a shot at UNI's coaching vacancy, but he sure didn't help his cause, when he said that trying to rebuild the UNI program would almost be impossible right away with the 5/8 rule. He almost acted in his interview that the UNI job wasn't for him. Was he ever right.
