Martin plans to announce tomorrow, the final day of the spring signing period.

1st 08 commit? Sounds like we're going to take the wait and see approach.

Jeter in the same "class" as Dan Marino, Major Harris, and LaVar Arrington.

i don't mind the jeter thing. nothing promised, but ksu has a foot in the door if he is needed. seems appropriate.

this was emailed to me, btw.

Jeter could be a good late signee to help soften the (expected) blow of NBA defections.

I agree, we are doing this well. We might have found a diamond, we might not, but we're not tied to anything. If he goes to JUCO and looks like he should play at Akron, he'll play there. If he shows he's a Big 12 player, we've got our foot in the door and he's likely a Cat. I think its a good move by Underwood.

I thought I read somewhere that he was an Oppenheimer recruit. No?

That was just me guessing, due to the Oppenheimer/Duquesne history.

FAN could really be guessing, too.

And we could both be right - maybe Opp made the initial contact, Underwood found him a quality Juco?

Just going by this:

But Kansas State assistant coach Brad Underwood called Jeter recently, and Kansas State urged the 6-foot-3 guard to attend Hutchinson for a year.

I wouldn't be surprised that Oppenheimer knew about him also from Kent though.

aahhh...I totally missed that one fan.

This Frank Martin guy is one hell of a recruiter.

Did Jason Bennett's 5-stars make him a good basketball player?

I'd say they helped him about as much as Cole's McDAA appearance.

ksutwisted · May 15, 2007, 01:02:32 PM

No, the stars didn't make him a good bb player. I bet a smooth argyle sweater and a bottle of wine would make him look pretty cool, though. Anyone know where I can get a picture of a douchebag in an argyle sweater sipping on wine? Anybody?
