Official 2024 Panther Basketball Recruit List

Thanks for laying that out. I've been wondering and can't believe we could have Nate for two more years. I can only hope he wants a masters and sticks around.

That's painful to see Courbat using a scholarship for another two years. Good kid. Great family. But that hurts.

Secondary question - I've seen nothing on Tanner Jacobson. Is he a walk-on like Hunter or is he going to go outside UNI for college?

He's walking on to run track at Nebraska.

Jake confirmed today that Cole Henry is not using his COVID year as expected. There's Hornseth's ride.

Jake also mentioned in that news conference what a huge deal it was to have a crowd like that. He also made sure to say it's on the team to bring fans to McLeod which I don't really disagree, however, we certainly could've been doing a lot more as a university to market and sell our products.

One other note, does the asterisks denote a redshirt? If so, Rubin would still be considered a freshman with Hornseth. and Peksari could throw an asterisk on his name, too. Love the breakdown though. It will be interesting to see what guys like Heise do after next year. I'm guessing they will have some good opportunities. Our scholarships could fluctuate quite a bit the next couple years.

The asterisk represents the complete and total bat**** situation that is Nate Heise's eligibility. Jess Settles, Grant Gibbs and Jordan Bohannon are jealous of the amount of time he gets to spend playing college basketball.

I think Born and Anderson are virtual locks to come back next year just because they mean a lot more to this team than they could elsewhere, but I am interested in what possible looks Nate could get. I think he has opportunities that Tytan and Born don't just because his skill set can pretty much seamlessly translate anywhere.

All speculation but could take another year here and ride out with Anderson/Born, could explore those 1-2 years elsewhere who knows. I'd imagine he has the level to play at some pro level so that could be a priority to him as well starting earlier rather than later.

Hate to be that guy given we're not even at the end of this season, but there were whispers last year, and I only imagine they grow louder this offseason.

You are 100% correct, and it will be something to look watch for this offseason. Bottom line, he is going to have options if he chooses.

How did Redek and Hornseth finish up their HS seasons?

[PantherAlum09]

Redek was 1st team all state, and Hornseth won player of the year, defensive player of the year, 1st team all conference, and all defensive team. They both had very good seasons. I am updating their stats on the first post right now, so that will be end of season stats.

We're going portaling, and this is arguably one of the biggest off-seasons Jake has had. A lot of things need to change.

Cade Courbat just committed... What in the wide world of sports is going on? I didn't even know we had an offer out to him.

So... any chance this is as a walk on?

Is he a Valley-level basketball player?

[PantherAlum09]

Who knows? I watched some of his senior year highlights and he certainly doesn't look bad. He's 6'8", has a nice looking shot, handles the ball well, and finishes around the rim. He looks solid enough, but his best offer was North Dakota. I attached his highlights below if anyone wants to check them out.

His offers were North Dakota, NJIT, and UMKC. I believe the most recent of these was last August, so I'm guessing his senior season didn't really turn any heads.

[Wxcpanther]

In my mind, it all comes down to the "cost". If we got him as a walk on, that's great value. If we had to burn a scholarship, we reached likely out of panic.
