Re: On campus recruit
Just to clarify, with this coaching staff, they bring a kid on an official visit and THEN offer him if they feel he's as good a fit as they had hoped. Jakub Karwowski left here with an official offer.I.M.Noone wrote: ↑May 7th, 2019, 7:03 amHe runs the floor very well for someone his size. He's active underneath, jumps just fine, rebounds, blocks shots. They didn't let him shoot from outside, so that's an unknown. He almost averaged a double/double, and if we can find a big post this late who did that in heavily guard oriented JC ball, that's pretty good. Smith has an eye for talent, and a talent for player development. If he offered the kid, he sees something there.

Re: On campus recruit (Jakub Karwowski)
I believe he was 9/22 in 2017-18 and 3/7 in 2018-19 == at least according to the NJCAA's website.hipsterdoofus21 wrote: ↑May 7th, 2019, 11:13 amBtw I was wrong about 3 pt numbers, not sure where I got 9/22 from.

Re: On campus recruit (Jakub Karwowski)
I'd pronounce it [kar vov ski], but this has a different opinion:
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Agreed, the only way he is a back up is if Queta comes back.

Re: On campus recruit (Jakub Karwowski)
This is fabulous! The internet has changed everything. Who would have guessed in a million years that there would be a site called PronounceNames.com? BTW, I have no problem pronouncing the name hospital administration has for me, I just can't say it in mixed company.
And I'm still going with "Smith" for the Karwowski kid.

Re: On campus recruit (Jakub Karwowski)
How is there nothing else out there at all about this kid? There's no other information about other teams offering him or other team's fans discussing him etc. On that video he sure looked like a big man a lot of teams would have an interest in. Seems odd.

Re: On campus recruit (Jakub Karwowski)
I guess I should've been more specific. Only having 1 other offer and it being from Mercer is my exact point. no other even G5 level teams with an interest in him. There's 0 mention of his name on twitter outside of USU as well.ChicAggie wrote: ↑May 9th, 2019, 8:44 amCould be that you haven't thoroughly scoured the interwebs.

I’m aware. His name even isn’t talked about though.

Re: On campus recruit (Jakub Karwowski)
Yes, I saw those tweets. Now show me a single tweet outside of USU of someone talking about his recruitment and him being a D1 basketball player.
There's just typically a lot of buzz around guys like that. All I was saying was I found it peculiar there's nothing out there about his recruitment or being eligible now or anything.

Just teasing you because of your use of absolutes in this thread about his recruiting, offers, and tweets. Your point, that this kid seems to be flying under the radar is probably still a valid one. That happens sometimes.

Much like the recruitment of Queta? Didn't hear a lot of buzz about him until we signed him.

Re: On campus recruit (Jakub Karwowski)
It's not all about you, bruh. Just making fun that almost all athletes announce stuff via Twitter, so clearly he won't be able to announce his commitment because Twitter is the only means of communication.

Re: On campus recruit (Jakub Karwowski)
Thanks for that article, it explains a lot. He was 1st team all Region 9, and there are close to 20 JC teams in that region. He played against a number of players who went D1 from Region 9 and were being watched by D1 coaches. So he is a known player.
Warning! Don't read this post. It's garbage.

Interesting back story.
I liked what I saw in the highlight videos, so am unconcerned that he flew under the radar.

Re: On campus recruit (Jakub Karwowski)
So Jakub has an official offer from Utah State. I didn't read he had signed an official letter of intent. Seems apparent that Jakub remains on the market.
