Lol, I know that. Just looking for some more info on him. If anyone has seen him play ect...., I will be looking online to see what videos if any are out there on him.

 

[Ricker]

there is a whole thread here on him. scroll down a bunch or search thread titles

He plays on the Adidas circuit but is trying out for the Serbian U 18 Eurobasket team this week.

The stretch forward spot will likely be a big need by 2025 with Alex and possibly JS going to the league. We might only have Abraham at that position by then. I like this kid’s game.

Ugh! Thanks Ricker, I did a search and found it. I don't know how I missed it awhile back.

Ricker specializes in the 4, send future 4 inquiries to him.

It’s us and Michigan St right now for visits, MSU has put lots of time into him. But you have to like our odds.

Sounds like he's a fan of our culture and Dan. Great fit for the Program

Top 25 senior Niko Bundalo cuts list to eight, schedules visits

The No. 24 overall recruit in the 2025 class broke down his final down with 247Sports.

Connecticut: "Coach (Dan) Hurley's intensity, man. There's something I really like about how Coach Hurley holds guys to that standard. He's a really high-level coach for a reason. I think he holds his guys to a standard that is unimaginable and that's why he has so many guys coming out of his program and going to the League now, even young guys. He just does such a great job of pulling the best out of his players and really helping them get better as men and basketball players."

he is speaking the language

That is music to my ears to hear.

 

[Mr. French]

He was given the script!

And he wins a little too.

My number one big want

 

[auror]

UConn, Michigan State, Ohio State, and North Carolina are his currently setup visits with more possible.

 

[RuffRuff]

My number one big want

He’s up there

Thomas and/or Mullins
Ament
Bundalo

Hit even 2 of those 4 and we’re doing alright.

 

[Kembacity]

Something about that comment makes me really strangely confident he’ll be in National flag blue, unless he’s looking for the biggest NIL

I think UNC is the biggest competition. Sounds like he’s visiting msu begrudgingly just to show some appreciation due to all the time they’ve spent recruiting him. And sounds like he’s only visiting OSU because it’s his state school

When he says “big want” I assume he means among “big” men, and ament and bundalo are 1a and 1b in that regard

Would be curious to what recruits are feeling about Izzo these days - old school grinder, seems a bit out of touch with the new gen. He hasn’t won anything recently nor has a long list of pros. Has some Boeheim feel to him with how he left.
