I work at Joker's here in Cedar Falls. Seth Tuttle came in tonight with another kid. Jokers has a rule that if you are not 21 you must provide college ID. when the other kid was asked seth jumped in and said the kid didnt have one because he was a transfer on a visit from Virginia, kid then took out a student ID from Virginia. any idea on who we may be getting? kid looked to be a couple inches shorter than tut.

6'6 guard from Wisc. According to rivals, ranked in the top 150 in his class out of HS. Had a TON of offers including Minnesota, Notre Dame, Arizona State, Butler, Iowa and many others.
"Jesperson started 33 of the team’s 35 games this past season and averaged 4.7 points and 2.2 rebounds per contest. The sophomore from Merrill, Wis., shot just 36.1 percent for the year, but he hit 37 percent of his three-pointers and Bennett valued his defensive skills on the perimeter."

Re: New basketball recruit?
nice player, we would definitely take him
i am a bit torn on posts like this...very common on the boards of bigger schools, but feels a little dirty here because CF is such a small town.Comment

Re: New basketball recruit?
Tigges tweeted that St. Louis and UNI are a couple of the schools he is considering transferring to.Comment

Re: New basketball recruit?
He's not really what this team needs, but you never turn down a big strong guard.
His stats aren't great, but he played 36 minutes in the win vs #3 Duke last year, so his coaches obviously have a lot of faith in him.Originally posted by TH1974Comment

Re: New basketball recruit?
I'll take someone who puts those stats up against ACC competition over someone who puts up those stats against MVC competition. No offense to those players but an upgrade is an upgrade. His scoring/rebounding stats are nearly identical to Bohannon (4.7 pts, 2.1 rpg, 39% FG, 36% 3 pt). That certainly doesn't mean he relegates Matt to the bench as Matt is a strong player, but it wouldn't bode well for Marvin, Max and Nate...possibly even Knar (I'm assuming Jeff is a SG though, not a PG. Is this correct?)Comment

Re: New basketball recruit?
Looks like the plan was to red-shirt him his first year, but they needed him after 11 games and he played the final 21. He'll have 3 years to play 2.Comment

Re: New basketball recruit?
As for the stats, the look not so good (career high of 12 points). That said, last season he spent a good deal of time playing as a forward, not a guard, because of pervasive injuries on the team.Comment

Re: New basketball recruit?
Ah...valid point. Those guys would still be around by the time he is eligible though (except Max).Originally posted by BCPanther View PostComment
