Literally all of us during gronowski portal season and the haul of wrs in December!
Jaidyn Coon Storm Lake
- Thread starter mr12182
- Start date
I really feel like he's already committed to Iowa and we will see him announce it pretty soon
Would be an awesome pickup. Let's hope for a commitment.
Maybe Iowas most athletic player since Gerry Wright (sir jamalot). He transferred from USC.
He's athletic but there have been others too. Just to name a few...
Roy Marble
Ray Thompson
Ricky Davis
Sam Okey
Chauncey Leslie
Doug Thomas
Tyler Smith
Eric May
Tyler Cook
Keegan Murray
Gerry Wright and Tyler Cook are the two best dunkers I recall. Aaron White was a good jammer off the wing.
Adam Haluska belongs on that list...
In the recruiting prediction machine, Iowa just got an insider pick to land Jaidyn and a 96% chance to come here. He's definitely already committed just a matter of time of when he announces.
yeah, I'm sure there are others I've missed too?
Just rattled off some.
Time is on our side. Dead Period starts Thursday April 2nd and then Portal opens on Tues. April 7th. I expect we will know very very soon the good news on Coon
You dont think that is good? Remember David Thompson iirc from NC St ncaa champs who had a 42 inch vertical and he was a noted awesom leaper at about 6 ft 4 inches. A 34" vertical from a taller guy is really very good. A guy who is 6' 6" or slightly taller can reach to over 8 ft and add in the nearly 3 ft vertical and his hand is a foot above the rim
That's pretty dang good for a high school junior..
A lot of good ones to choose from over the years. Eric May was pretty damn impressive for his height.
No one, though, could throw it down like Doug Thomas.
Patience grasshopper. Kids want to do this own way, good news soon.

I demand that Jaidyn commit today.
Thank you.

Think all can play the 3. Sage and coon more 2 and Koch and Thompson 4. No clue about Harris but height alone would figure 3/4.
He probably asked for a couple of days to consider the offer. Does he have any other visits lined up (that we know of)?
Sage definitely needs to keep working on his handles and D so he can hopefully play more 2 to help us get our best 5 on the floor. I’m assuming the same about Coon if he comes here. Don’t know enough about Trey to know if the 2 or 4 is possible against good competition. Harris definitely seems like a 3/4 only
HS Recruiting dead period starts tomorrow, and the NCAA Portal opens on Tuesday. He wants to get his place on the team before the portal opens, no other visits planned. This is or will be done very soon.
Harris has very good handles for a player his size and is good at getting his shot off the bounce. He'd be more of a wing 2/3 than a 3/4. Thompson will be more a 3/4
Tate Sage they feel has the chance to be a big combo guard.
