Need him to stick around and get his little brother to commit as well.

shocked jlb didnt break this news \

What a slap in the face to [insert team I don't like here]!!!

We'll see if Hoiberg's strategy of recruiting the older brothers of 5 star recruits continues to pay off.

It will be nice when Fred fills out the roster with guys who can shoot. I'm not sure I will be able to handle it.

Is it true his little brother is a 5 STAR??????

 

[TruHusker]

Nice pickup, now get some bigger guys! Are we going to be running 4 guard offense?

NICE! Too bad he has to wait 2 and half years. How many years does his older brother have left?

All 4 if this year doesn't count

Yes, it would awesome if they could play together!

CJ Wilcher is a great fit for the Nebraska offense.

 

[Scat_Back]

CJ Not the most athletic, still probably sneaky good, kind of reminds me of Teddy Allen the way he plays. 4 star 133rd ranked player in the 2020 class. Only 4 power 5 offers but people raving about his shooting ability. We’ve heard it before but on paper I’m optimistic about him fitting in Fred’s offense. Kid’s got a nice quick and high shot release. Lot of contested made jumpers in his highlights, hopefully not too many misses. Physically he looked like a grown man in high school.

Is Trey going to move over to PG?

 

[saltsdogg1]

One more....

Edited: Xaviers final 3 games (vs Georgetown, (started) Marquette and Butler), CJ Wilcher played 20-32 minutes and averaged 7 points per game. GBR

played both guard spots this year. I would think the starters next year would be both McGowens, Lat, Walker, and Banton. Then they can bring in this kid, Kobe, Andre, and Breidenbach off the bench.

I'm digging that music

They didn't offer this kid just to get his younger brother but if he chooses Nebraska too that would be great. LOVE the guard recruiting Fred and his staff are doing.

Do you think he could fit into the NWMSU efficient and effective offense? That is the real measure of whether the guy is any good....

 

[Harry Caray]

He looked like the real deal on his high school film...I'm curious as to why he hardly played all year at Xavier, until the last 3 games? It's not like Xavier was a very good team this year.

Did you see that video! My god...I mean...they got an open 3! ****...never seen that before.

Might be defense? I don't know for sure but I know Xavier has/had a rule with their last coach that if you did not turn everything back into the middle and if you did not put your foot on the baseline while guarding a guy trying to go baseline, you would not play.

Maybe it was just something like that.

He was also a freshman. We have seen our fair share of Husker freshman that we feel should get more time. Sometimes they just don’t get the opportunity until late in the season

he was a true freshman on a solid team. I wouldn’t exactly say “Xavier wasn’t very good”. They went 13-7 with wins over Oklahoma, Crieghton, Marquette and Butler. It seems like his minutes came harder to come bye early on (maybe he had trouble adjusting at first?) and then it picked up as the season went on. He even started the Marquette game.

I like it. They were looking much more like a team at the end of the year.

 

[Lincoln100]

Dude likes to flex a lot.

 

[saltsdogg1]

its doesn’t show it on the post but that tweets picture has CJ Wilcher on there towards the bottom sitting at a .9546 4 ⭐️ rating.

all your brothers of 5 stars are belong to us.

it's not the worst strategy, so long as big brother is made happy

Easier than hiring the kids HS coach...like ASU just did to land a 5 star.

And USC not to long ago.... “USC has hired Eric Mobley, the father of two high-profile recruits, as an assistant basketball coach.”

forgive me but I don’t see how this can’t be viewed as an NCAA Violation? I mean come on now, you know why USC hired their dad?

So with this news, there's a pretty good chance that Fred will get a 5 Start first before Scott... good thing I'm not a betting man or I may have lost money

He already has, Bryce McGowens is a 5-star

Fred's already inked one this year in Bryce McGowans. should immediately start at the 2/3 next year.
