    Boys State Basketball

    Just a question on the teams that are in the tourney this year, 1A-4A. I know there are going to be 3 or 4 players in Des Moines that are going to be heading up to Cedar Falls next year but the only one I know the name and the school he belongs to is Jordan at Bellevue.

    Who are the others playing this week and what team are they playing for?

    Thanks for the help, I am heading down to Des Moines latter this week and want to watch some future Panthers. Can't wait for Friday, take down Georgetown.

    Kerwin Dunham - Bondurant-Farrar
    Jordan Eglseder - Belleview Marquette
    Brent Barz - Johnston (Class of 07)

    Wisconsin State Tourny
    Adam Koch - Aschwabuaon or something like that

    Haven't heard if Kwazo's Tartan team made it to the Minnesota State tourny.

          PTTB, does that website always update? Like when the Bellevue game is over will it automatically go to the next game?

            Yes it will.

            Jordan finished with 31 points, 13 boards, 14-24 shooting, 4 assists, and several blocks (team finished with 8, so I'm guessing he had the majority of them---if not all of them).

              I went to the game.

              Jordan was the only decent player on his team. He is slower than I had heard and did not jump quite as well as I had hoped, but he is huge with a realtively soft touch. He will need some work.

                Who else are we recruiting that's playing in the state tourney, aside from the obvious kids we've signed or have given us verbals. What about Caleb Stout or McGriff? I've heard that Joel Quick from Johnston is a good athlete, but not sure if he's good enough to play hoops at UNI's level.

                  Joel Quick is a very good athlete and is currently undecided for next year. Leaning toward football but track and basketball are still possiblities.

                    I went to the game and agree with this assessment. Thought he had good hands. I wouldn't look for him to be a dominant player next year.

                      Did he look slow b/c he played 32 minutes or slow b/c they were playing on a collegiate regulation floor, or slow b/c he is just "slow"? I saw his basketball game on tv a few weeks ago. I thought he was pretty mobile for a 7'0".

                        I saw him play on tv as well. It was what I expected. A huge guy that is totally raw and needs a great college coach to take his game furher.

                        Back in the good ol' days of Dean Oliver and Mason City High School basketball we were fortunate to have 2 seven footers. The were never quick but they dominated. One of them washed out at Nebraska b/c he was kind of a messed up kid and it was Nebraska. It sounds like Big Jordan is not like this.

                        The only quick seven footers you are going to see nowadays will only be in college for the 1 year they are required. I'm not worried about his quickness. I'm not expecting him to be a force for at least a year.

                          I hope Marquette makes the finals...I'd like to see that kid on TV this weekend.

                            I saw him play last year against NU High (my HS) at sub-state in CR.....NU High won, but I thought Jordan played great. Made his FTs....which really impressed me. But the one thing NU High did was run the $hit out of him. He was extremely winded......that being said....he will be a stud at UNI!!!

                              He will take some time to develope. Most big guys do. The thing is I've heard he has tremendous work ethic which will help a great deal. He has made great strides over the last two years and that will continue. Give him time and he will be really good. IMO.
