Per Alex Kline: Minnesota has offered 2015 SF Nate Grimes of Las Vegas Knicks (NV).
Go Gophers!!
Go Gophers!!
That final analysis is probably for the 2014 class.
Go Gophers!!
We picked up another crystal ball for Jarvis yesterday. We've now picked up 4 since the MSU offer.

How much interest do the Gophers have in Johnson? I have to imagine teams are beginning to cool on him with his EYBL play.
A lot.
A lot.
Is this seriously a question? Of course we want Jarvis. How many recruits have we landed with offers from Bo and Izzo?
I honestly hope we get a different (better) point guard to commit. I don't think Johnson is as good as he's been made out to be. He's not a top 100 player.
With that being said, I wouldn't mind if we got him. But I think expectations needs to be tempered.

Maybe wanna move this to the Sacar thread. Idk.
Can you paste Amelia's article? I don't click on any Strib articles anymore thanks to Soupcan.
thats what is concerning about Martin. He struggled against tougher competition and then posted superstar type numbers back at home. I would love to see some Summer league numbers from him this year to see if he is able to sustain that production.I think him and Mason will be a good duel at the position, as upperclassmen, not saying they'll be as good, but we could see something that the Pistons did with Isiah and Dumars. Also Martin struggled in the EYBL, but he recovered

I never really felt like Jarvis was going to go to Michigan State despite some of the "crystal ball" movement towards the Spartans when they offered him. That said, it feels like the movement away from the Spartans and towards the Gophers on the crystal ball is due to a belief that Jarvis' struggles have put him further down MSU's list of PG prospects as opposed to any real new momentum with the Gophers and Jarvis.
Gophers are "in" on some level with a lot of prospects who seem to not be discussed here more than Sacar Anim, but are more highly regarded/recruited such as Chris Clarke, KJ Walton, Kain Harris, Dupree McBrayer, Ahmad Wagner, Kenny Williams, and Nate Grimes. Those are just guys that profile more as wings and doesn't include (arguably) our top 2 targets on the wing in Trier and Whitt.
That's true, but that's because Martin grew about two inches. Johnson's issues don't have to do with his size.
If Pitino is looking for a team modeled after Louisville, both Siva and Russ Smith were pretty poor 3 pt shooters also and not very big. But they were the utmost competitors with tremendous quickness and toughness. If that is Jarvis great. By the way Russ shot a decent 3 ball by his senior season. Russ was a 2* per scout, and a 3* per Rivals.
