Recruits

Kid has a very long way to go defensively. Pure shooter/scorer. Seems to have the tools but won't crack the lineup until he gets active defensively.

With this commitment I'll assume the Badgers are out of the Diamond Stone sweepstakes...

And Alex Illikainen joins the class of 2015:

You assuming Bo is going to bank the extra scholarship?

 

Excuse me, three extra scholarships?

 

Though UW technically still has three more open scholarships for 2015, it won't use them all. Having struck out in a down year for point guards, only two outstanding offers remain and they are both to centers. I have accepted that Josh Sharma has probably moved on to either Stanford or Boston College, so Thomas sort of fills that developmental big slot that Sharma would have occupied. Wisconsin is entrenched in a battle with Connecticut and Maryland for Stone that will come down to the wire. Stone recently visited Oklahoma State and there are rumblings that Duke is no longer a serious threat.

Well, that's great news then! Until he signs with someone else...

Interview with Stone

Always be closing

It would be a great get to land Stone but something tells me it ain't going to happen.   It's such a non Wisconsin outcome to land a guy like that but who knows?  If he's another Brian Butch I will gladly take a 3 star guy instead they can develop

I like the Thomas kid - seems like a physical guy that has some ability

This has nothing to do with the Badgers, but I found it funny

 

Oops!!

Tubby in a nutshell... everything looks cool, then he wipes out in the end.
