Re: Norbert Thelissen
Of course it matters how things play out on the floor but Smith recruited 5 of our top ten ranked players since 2000 so it’s not like he couldn’t get anyone to come here or that he was recruiting scrubs. Four remain on the team and it remains to be seen how their careers will end and the other one (Fonz) was a very solid player. And these don’t include Queta or Worster.
Could he have been better? Probably. But to say he can’t/didn’t recruit isn’t totally accurate either.

Re: Norbert Thelissen
I don’t know who you have as “5 of the top 10” players since 2000. Please share this list. My guess is that claim will be hotly contested.bluegrouse wrote:Of course it matters how things play out on the floor but Smith recruited 5 of our top ten ranked players since 2000 so it’s not like he couldn’t get anyone to come here or that he was recruiting scrubs.

Re: Norbert Thelissen
I never claimed the list panned out that way. Just that these guys were highly ranked at time of signing.
Some highly-rated guys don’t work out and some low-rated guys go on to be stars. Just saying that these guys were highly regarded when they were being recruited.

In all seriousness I don’t think transfers are on that list. But you are correct he would have the highest ranking coming out of hs on that list.

Re: Norbert Thelissen
I thought James Walker III was up there, wasn't he? It seems like when USU got him, he was our highest rated recruit up to that point.

Re: Norbert Thelissen
Because of his age and pro experience, I think Thelissen contributes day 1. Not a typical freshman.

Re: Norbert Thelissen
I do wonder how long Thelissen is going to want to stay given his age too. If he has pro aspirations, he’s not gonna stay four years and start his career at 26.
I did read he wants to be a doctor, so maybe if he doesn’t want to pursue a pro career somewhere, he will stay all four years.
Just stuff to think about.

Re: Norbert Thelissen
What is his connection to USU? Was Odom recruiting him before his Utah commitment? I think he’ll be a great player for us.

Re: Norbert Thelissen
I'm mostly interested in Thelissen's story because he seems like a great addition to the team, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't interested about how a scholarship is available for him haha. But I am more than happy and content with the fact that he's verbally committed.

Max source level: Coach Odom will pay for him out of his salary, but when he sells him for more next year, he's keeping the profit.AgMan21 wrote: ↑May 11th, 2021, 11:27 amI'm mostly interested in Thelissen's story because he seems like a great addition to the team, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't interested about how a scholarship is available for him haha.

Re: Norbert Thelissen
What about Hamoda? He's not listed on the official roster yet either. Is he taking an "athletic" scholarship for 21-22? Also any news on Potter? Still wondering how the scholly numbers add up.

Presumptuous and ill-informed.
Re: Norbert Thelissen
Why is the school not releasing any of these signing? This is PR game and seems like USU is way behind. I thought news was slow to come out when Stew was the coach, now we have nothing. Other schools are producing hype videos.
