JettFlight5 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 His status is pending Can he be un-tooled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiseAndGrind Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Bizarre. I wonder who cancelled it in the first place. Either way, can't imagine the odds are in our favor. *Neufeld promptly commits* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VeniceMenace Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Neufeld=big man, year of prep school... Same with Agbeko, Jolly, Welmer Seeing a pattern here, our coaches like that extra year of seasoning for big men at the prep schools. Wouldn't be surprised if we get Neufeld.

thetorch Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Not many option for us going forward. If Neufeld doesn't commit I think we save the scholarship for next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVBilliken Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I see he is not rated by ESPN, Rivals or Scout but shows up on Verbal Commits as a 2 star. He had a pretty good looking list of schools to visit in St. Mary's, Colorado, and SLU (Clemson was cancelled by Neufeld I assume). What other schools showed interest in him? Anyone see him play? Is he a good get if we get him committed to SLU? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doowop Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Yeah, that's exactly what most on here said about Jolly. On his initial showing on YouTube he did not look good. Later, while at prep school, he looked a lot better on his videos. Greatly improved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thetorch Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 On YouTube he does not look impressive. We don't need another player like him imo. He was a low major recruit before he blew up in the summer. For a late bloomer he was getting some high major and Pac 12 looks. We were lucky we saw him early. With Grandy and Manning gone after this season, more big men is exactly what we need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwayne's_World Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Just saw a tweet from Ben that Neufeld is deciding between SLU and St Mary's by next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorB Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 There have been recruits in and out of campus in the past week or so, I've seen them in the golf carts with staff. There will not be any "saving" of schollies anymore, unless it's for the springtime. Sorry no new names; but there are still very big, athletic-looking guys visiting, believe me. so much weeping and gnashing of teeth, by adult men, over the whims of teenagers!! Kind of sad, really .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were lucky we saw him early. With Grandy and Manning gone after this season, more big men is exactly what we need. To further what torch said, Ben reported that in late July neufield had offers from Washington and Clemson for 2014. Not sure exactly what led to him choosing to go to prep school and turn into a 2015 but when he did the Washington interest dried up. Still had visits scheduled for st Mary's, Clemson and Colorado which aren't scrub schools. He'd be a good get and a fit for our system.

RiseAndGrind Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Seems weird, and unlikely, but Neufeld's AAU coach posted on Facebook today that Duke has "interest" in Neufeld.

Still had visits scheduled for st Mary's, Clemson and Colorado which aren't scrub schools. He'd be a good get and a fit for our system. Also saw a report from a few months ago indicating that Gonzaga was recruiting him heavily at one point. Maybe he is not highly rated on some recruiting sites since he has played HS in Canada and is a bit of an unknown, but he has a solid list of interest/offers. I'm surprised Carleton is not in the mix. He is now going to a place called Sunrise Christian in Kansas. They have players from all over the world. Never heard of this place, unlike some of the more high profile prep school on the East Coast like South Kent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLU_Nick Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 People who said that they didnt want Neufeld... did you watch this video? I am very hyped for a player like this. Should start the party later this week... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
