Billy was at the QC Golf outing and in an interview he said this area was an important recruiting area. He cited his 4 hour area he wants to recruit from. I really wish he would look more at high school kids from Iowa. Hate seeing them go to other Summit League teams. They seem to really be concentrating on Indiana. Just one man's opinions

He appears to be a 2018 recruit. Pretty talented kid at this point in his career just from looking at his highlight video.
Embrace the pace of the race.

Looks like he is a 2019 recruit.

Wow, damn....ok. I'm just so used to football where the furthest out that we're offering kids is for the 2017 season.

Looks like, according to some other sites, he graduates in '18, so he'd be playing college ball (wherever he ends up choosing) with '18/'19 as his freshman year.

I guess I'll start up a 2018 recruiting thread for basketball and move him over there.
