Another 2015 Offer Goes Out

by 3uconn

Tuesday afternoon, 2015 power forward Noah Dickerson broke the news that he had just received an offer from UConn. He started receiving interest from UConn a couple months back but since then there’s been no news about UConn’s level of interest until today. Dickerson joins 2015 center Jessie Govan as big men in the 2015 class to receive offers this week.

The 6’8″ 255 pound power forward uses his body and strength at all times to bully his opponents. Whether it be boxing out for a rebound or going down low for post score, his strength allows him to crashe the defensive and offensive boards. And when he gets the offensive rebound, he can go back up and finish the play through contact. Dickerson can score with his back to the basket making him a true post player. He isn’t a stretch power forward like UConn has been going after a lot in the 2014 class. He doesn’t have much of a mid range or long range shot at all but he still produces. He has to make sure he is always working on his conditioning as that will make him even better and be able to perform on a much more regular basis for his team. He is someone UConn could have used last year because he lives rebounding. He told Rivals that when he is struggling on the offensive side of the ball he “rebounds a lot more” to help his team out and get him back on track.

As I stated earlier Dickerson has been receiving interest from UConn for the past few months which led to an offer today from the staff. He also has other offers from Auburn, Georgia, Virginia, Tennessee, and Georgia Tech with interest from Ohio State and Michigan, among many others. This fall he will only be a junior so he has this summer and next summer along with two more years of high school basketball to improve his game and earn more scholarship offers. He’s said a couple times that he wants to commit during the middle of his senior year which is about a year and a half away. With that much time left until a decision many things can change in the fast moving world of college basketball recruiting.
