Tom Oates: Wisconsin's abundant pool of high school basketball talent flows from a fountain of youth
Disturbing that there’s little mention of Wisconsin as active in the recruitment of these young players. DePaul, Arizona State, West Virginia, and of course Kentucky.
5 slots come open after next year and there’s a LOT of in-state talent. Is Gard asleep at the wheel? Is he out matched? I see the Badgers are successful in Minnesota, but why not in their own state? Brian Butch and Sam Dekker are the top “gets” in the Ryan era- both 5 star guys. Koenig was a 4 Star Guy. Gard got Kobe King (4 Star Guy) but this article says there are elite long wings abound in-state. And Wisconsin can’t get any of them?
