Hey all. First time poster, long time lurker. Just thought I'd share a little tidbit on Jarvis. Spoke to a friend the other day who is very well-connected to the program (around the team/coaches every day), and said "we're sitting very well with Jarvis", and also added, in regards to 2015, "we're going to land some big time recruits. Bank on it."

Know it doesn't mean much, but considering the guy that I talked to is so connected, I place some stock in his statements.

Jarvis and Thomas Package deal?
 

One of our 2015 targets is off the board. We weren't a finalist, so no surprise here.

HS obviously young, but when I watched him play he looked bad. Supposedly a shooting guard, but airballed/badly missed about 4 shots just that game.

Eli Thomas just tweeted... "I'm at home.... No where else."

*If he really is in Minnesota, this is a great, great sign!

Ryan James tweeted that Thomas was there then deleted and said he saw a Timberwolf that he mistook for Thomas. I kind of doubt he's there.

Yeah I don't think he is. Bummer. That "home" tweet would've said a lot haha.
 

The Gophers version of having a former NBA alum "run into" a recruit on a visit. :D

So did anyone else see Sam Neumann's 39 pts and 9 threes(3 or 4 of them NBA range)? The kid can shoot. I hope the gophers show some interest in him, maybe as a safety pickup.

I was there as well. He absolutely put on a show with his shooting, and I can't remember one shot he took that wasn't contested. With that being said, I kind of doubt that he could play the wing position in the Big Ten. His defense, rebounding, and passing leave a lot to be desired for a 6'6 player. There's no doubting his shooting ability though!
