I hope your right. Go GophersHe was there with his family. He went into the locker after the win to listen to Pitino speak.
I think it's only a matter of time.
I think the Wayzata kid was there too - Heide? It was good to see Damien, Mbakwe and Humphries there too.He was there with his family. He went into the locker after the win to listen to Pitino speak.

I like your input of what you see and hear. I am to watched the football championship game and noticed the same type of person you mentioned in your commentsLot of things going for us in Walton's recruitment. Having a local star in Oturu front-running the Big 10 POTY candidates certainly helps. Not to mention Walton has been to two straight home games and has gotten to witness a winning locker room atmosphere in person.
On a side note I watched a little of the Minnehaha vs Hopkins game highlights the other day... Walton's persona is very different compared to Suggs. I think it had to do with how arrogant and cocky Suggs was compared to Walton, who quietly came in and handed Minnehaha the loss without show-boating after every basket.
Not saying we don't want kids with passion but I think Walton's personality and game fit the team a lot better than Suggs does. I'm sure Kerwin realizes that he'd be a good fit here as well.
Tre Holloman - sophmore from Cretin was supposed to be there also, but I forgot to look to confirm. Watching him throw lob passes in Cretin games should make any wing want to play with him- he is fun to watch.I think the Wayzata kid was there too - Heide? It was good to see Damien, Mbakwe and Humphries there too.
Doesn’t even hold an offer from UW per 247 and there is little evidence they have recruited him. They also already have 5 commits in their 2020 classBadgers or a catholic school is my guess

I saw what the Islanders did to Hopkins. It was my first time seeing Walton in person. I hope the Gophers land him, but he and the Royals got thumped. I have no idea how that team beat Minnehaha. They’re athletic as heck (and Walton maybe the most of any of them), but didn’t play organized at all. They were just terribly off all night. I would’ve liked to have seen Walton call for the ball more and try to take over- De La Salle often had their smaller point guard (who was impressive) on him and he had a real size advantage.
His Twitter shows North Dakota as his only D1 offer so far. No 247 page, for whatever that is worth. Also saw this:Is Cade coming to the U to play basketball?

Walton or Haskins are you talking about?He is unselfish ALMOST too much. He rarely takes a bad or forced shot. Moves the ball and finds the open man. He can flat out stroke it.
Also when the opportunity presents itself I have seen him bang on some people driving to the rim.
yeah that's what I noticed too. he gets his shot off quickI like his high release and he has a pretty quick shot.

I know nothing about him except for the video posted. High/quick release. Does anyone know about his overall athleticism? Sounds like UND won't be his best offer for very long. Purdue always seem to have kids like this on their roster.He's not an unknown to the U, there was a tweet about Conroy watching him in early December, no offer at this point though whatever that means.
That what she said....yeah that's what I noticed too. he gets his shot off quick
