    Jarod Snydergaard

    Not that it is a big deal (and it may have been talked about before), but I was looking at the bios of some of the guys that are redshirting this year. Turns out Jarod is the nephew of one Randy Kraayenbrink.


    High School: A 2010 graduate of South O'Brien High School ... averaged 18.0 points, 8.4 rebounds and 2.0 assists as a senior, while earning first-team all-conference honors ... first-team all-conference pick as a junior ... second-team all-league selection as a sophomore ... qualified in four events for the state track meet as a senior (4x100, 4x200, 4x400 and long jump) ... placed 7th in the state in the 4x100 and 8th in the state in the 4x200 as a senior ... lettered in football (4), basketball (4), track (4) and baseball (4) ... batted .403 and 29 stolen bases in baseball ... honor roll student ... high school coach: Kiley Yates.

    Personal: Born Dec. 3, 1991, in Sioux Falls, S.D. ... son of Jody Syndergaard and the late Mike Syndergaard ... has a sibling (Kaleb) ... majoring in sports medicine ... his uncle, Randy Kraayenbrink, played for UNI from 1982-86 and ranks second on the Panthers' all-time scoring list.

    Why doesn't he play instead of O'Rear?

        lol 6'1"

        On a side note according the roster Kwadzo weighs about 20lbs more than Nate Bus. I sure hope he is hitting the weight room big time!

          Watching Snydergaard during warm ups and during the shoot around for the Red shirting players on game day (happens every game about 2 hours before doors open) he has some skills and has very good fundamentals, IDK if he will ever play but I hope he gets a shot.

                With the team we have now, i want size. No need for guards..

                  Nate Buss actually warms up with the Guards, not the Post players. Looks like he will be playing the 3 until he gets stronger.

                      I believe it was the Register that had Buss listed as 6'9. If you had a big guy in the middle and two 6'9 forwards that can shoot the three, you might just have something there...

                        You might be on to something here. Think about next year for a moment.

                        Koch will be a junior RS, standing at 6'9" 255 lbs (Which i expect him to put on more muscle weight),

                        Chip Rank will be a 6'6" sophomore who's currenly at 222 lbs. I know it might not seem like it now, but he could possibly fill the roll of O'Rear in the coming years. I watched a little bit of Luke's high school days on youtube, and I'd have to say that Rank is bigger in size than luke was. Rank has the minutes, and the experience of playing down low. Just get him in the weight room and bulk him up, and he could be bigger than Luke (size wise)

                        Throw in Buss in the mix at 6'9, as well as Tuttle next year (6'8") and dare i say it... Pehl at 6'10 (I hope hope hope he greatly improves) and you'll have five guys who can play the post positions. It'd make us wonder how we were ever short in that area in what would be "this season".

                        I don't mean to take this off the topic of Jarod, but that last post made me really think about what we could possibly have next season. Throw in all the guards that we'll have, and we could have playing (assuming Coach doesn't redshirt any of the new five guys, which I doubt is the case): (And please correct me if i'm wrong on any of this, or you have a differing opinion)

                        Bohanan, Matt; Grade 88 Guard
                        Buss, Nate; Grade 86 Forward (See Article)
                        Humpal, James Walk On,
                        James, Anthony Starter
                        Koch, Jake Starter
                        Lange, Tyler Averages 3.7 min/g with the recruits coming in, i dont think that'll change much.
                        Lyle, Jevon Grade 84 Guard
                        Martino, Max Grade 83 Guard
                        Mitchell, Deon Grade 87 Guard
                        Moran, Johnny Starter
                        Morrison, Matt Averages 5.2 min/g (see Lange)
                        Pehl, Austin Possible Starter
                        Rank, Chip Starter
                        Sonnen, Marc Possible Starter
                        Singleton, Marvin Grade 86 Forward
                        Syndergaard, Jarod Walk on
                        Tuttle, Seth Grade 88 Forward

                        Minus the walk ons, that's 15 players who could see time. Take out the 5 recruits, and we're still 10 deep with three guys at 6'8" or above. I don't want to be too overly optimistic, but we could be pretty dangerous come next season.

                          I see us next year being about where we are now..3-5 in the conference. I would expect BenJ to redshirt two or three of those freshmen. If I had to guess I would say Bohannon, Lyle, and maybe Singleton. Jake seems to have made it clear that he intends to play Mitchell from the start. We're just going to be too loaded with guards that it wouldn't make sense to not redshirt Bohannon/Lyle when we have the chance. I think its 2012 when we can really be dangerous:

                          Matt Morrison Jr/Deon Mitchell So
                          AJ SR
                          Sonnen Sr
                          Koch Sr
                          Pehl Sr

                          Rank Jr
                          Buss So
                          Tuttle So/Fr
                          Singleton So/Fr
                          Bohannon So/Fr
                          Lyle So/Fr
                          Who knows what we will get out of the walk-ons

                          We will have 6 guys with 2+ years of playing experience and 3-4 guys with a year of playing experience. No one in the valley will have anything like that with the exception of Drake who will have no depth in the backcourt unless something changes.

                            If it was me coaching this collection of players next year I would throw out the three guard line-up and have Buss, Rank, and Singleton compete for the 3 spot, with JK at the 4, AJ at the 2, Moran starting at the point with Mitchel backing him up. Sonnen backs up Aj, Tuttle either has to play the 5 or backs up JK at the 4. Pehl and either Tuttle or JK would have to play the 5. You could have a starting lineup with 6'10, 6;9, 6'9 across the front.

                              Lyle is a redshirt for sure.

                              Singleton is a specimen already, his body is ready for big time basketball. There is no way he redshirts and probably takes aDunham type role.

                              Bohanon is the wildcard, it depends how much Jake feels we need the shooter.

                              All in all, the future is extremely bright...
