Would love to get him and Frietag in the 2024 class but unlike since their essentially the same position.

2024 looks like a really good class in MN

 

[UpAndUnder43]

Asuma seems like the kind of kid Johnson should get.

 

[Holy Man]

Asuma seems like the kind of kid Johnson should get.

Why?

 

[UpAndUnder43]

Why?

He was hired to close the borders. Likely won’t be getting offers from blue bloods, a priority in the in-state class, has no ties to other major universities/coaches.

 

[Halsey Hall]

I want his 8th grade cousin, too

Not 'closing the borders' on Royce White and Trevor Mbakwe was devastating. We would have been the National Championship favorite.

But I'm perfectly fine with Coach Johnson and assistant Jenkins getting west-coast 5-stars, and guys like Christie...and evaluating guys like Ola-Joseph over media-BS-hype that says we need Winter, etc.

 

[Holy Man]

8th graders are too young for college basketball. Can he reclassify from 8th to 12th grade?

 

[USAF]

Geez dude. Phrasing.

 

[Swaggerson]

We aren’t recruiting Frietag.

Go Gophers!!

Tell me more.

He was not hired to close to close the borders. He was hired to improve recruiting and coaching, both of which he has already demonstrated

[RockChalk]

Does anyone on this board no where Cherry, MN is located, other than 2 posters I know of?

The fact that this kid is African American living in Cherry is something special. AWESOME

It's pretty close to Hibbing, I don't think it's that unusual .
