No one likes to be second. No one.

If you ain't first, your last!!! From the rock star that was Ricky Bobbie.

I would have to assume that we will very rarely ever see an early HS signing again (more than a year early) with where NIL is at. Most kids will want to see what the roster they are going to join looks like

No way this kid has not heard from Niko yet, right? No offers yet, but according to 247 the only schools on his list are MN and Colo St.

GOOD WORK COACH MEDVED!!

Beautiful form on his shot with a quick release. This looks like a very nice get.

Hadn't seen this posted yet, Niko sends out another offer for a '26. 4 star composite ranked Austin Brown a SF out of Texas.

Edit: Interesting to note he's about the same size as Ijadimbola and plays the same position, yet I haven't seen Niko re-off Dothan yet.

I'm a bit surprised to see this offer, but hopefully the coaches see something in Nolen at the BT level.

With 15 scholarships, I would bet his strategy will be to stuff the last 3-4 spots with local prospects who can develop.

For state’s best uncommitted boys basketball players, July recruiting period is key

Wayzata’s Nolen Anderson, Fairbault’s Ryan Kreager, Totino-Grace’s Dothan Ijadimbola and Cretin-Derham Hall’s JoJo Mitchell are among the state’s top seniors hoping to add scholarship offers in July.

What a change from the last 12 years.

I would have offered Micah Curtis, 6-8 230 physical speciman with wing skills, versus Nolan, he has a much higher ceiling.

Why not both?

I’ve seen Anderson play in several h.s. games for Wayzata. He is a pure shooter, relentless in getting open, can hit his shot under pressure and take the ball to the rim. Look for him to have a great Senior year and for his stock to rise. Hope he commits. Will fit in well with the Medved style offense.

Interesting to see if Nolan starts picking up high major offers. Seems like the kind of player we have offered too late in the past.

Thought Curtis graduated?

I really like Micah Curtis and I think there is a very good chance he is looking for greener pastures in a year or two, but he's in the 2025 class. He's going to UND before he portals to the U in 2027.

He just got a Virginia tech offer.

I hope so! I haven't seen anyone his size and skill level not rated by 247 and not without major offers. Built like Humphries, but skilled like Garcia. At lease in the few online games I have watched. One was against Wayzata.

I'm with you, I've only seen him online. There is a channel on Youtube that plays some HS basketball games and I tuned in to watch someone else and came out of it thinking "WTF is this guy?"

So I agree. I don't see how that kid isn't a high end D1 player. Like what is he missing?
