Good, they must be reading the message boards to get their facts straight.

Last Saturday night 8/26/06,while at a local watering hole, I heard from a "source" that we had 2 bigs interested. One was a 6'9" kid from Alaska, The other a 7'1" beanpole, roughly 190lbs, from Texas.
Well the kid from Alaska verballed. Wonder when, or if, The Texan commits?
Interesting.

I was talking with that same source and alls he told me was "take a cab" .....

7'1" 190...I heard he has to run around in the shower just to get wet.

Grassman, I'm 6'4" and 190 (bout the same as you )

I think this kid sounds promising & agree with what was said about the fact that Bo Ryan was after him generally means the kid is a pretty well rounded recruit.

What I like the most is that the mini-recruiting drought is finally over and with some more visits rumored for this weekend, maybe there will be more news soon.

If Will is reading the board, just want to say welcome to BU.

I'm also glad that the 5/9 thing is over with!!!

Alaska has produced 5 DI players since 2002, the most recent being 5 star recruit (and the focus of some contreversy) Mario Chalmers of Kansas. Mark down Egolf as #6. Looks like he should be the top player in Alaska this year.

Here are the names I can come up with from Alaska:
Mario Chalmers, Kansas, 2005
Chris Devine, UCSB, 2003
Ray Schaefer, Oregon, 2003
Doron Perkins, UC-Santa Clara, 2003
Marcus Watts, McNeese State, 2002
There could have been others, maybe some walk-ons or little recruited players.

Carlos Boozer, Duke led Egolf's school, Juneau-Douglas Crimson Bears, to back-to-back state titles in 1998,1999.

Duke had Trajan Langdon in the 90's

Can you tell me who the other four of your 5 since 2002 are, BB?

If anyone is interested about this, I came across another Alaska kid that has been playing Div I in the US for the past 2 years. Doug Hardy has been at Idaho State of the Big Sky Conference for the past 2 years. He is originally from Anchorage Bartlett high school. He just transferred back to Div II University of Alaska Anchorage for his junior season.--

The 7'1" beanpole is actually 6'10", and it's down to us and SMU. We're currently the leader according to Scout.com, here's the discussion. He would be a major recruiting victory.

Will Egolf has been impressing someone. Scout has raised him to a 2-star recruit since last week!

Thanks for the link to Will's page. I'd like to see more video clips of Will's play. It looks like he likes Eva Mendez, too.

ha, yeah. hes in alaska i'm sure hes just painting a picture for everyone up there. we're alot closer to chicago than juneau. by the way talked to him, seems like a good kid. hes also psyched about the 08 recruiting class. says theyre gonna be huge (after my complaints about needing some size)

[mrcoachdude]

I heard that folks at BU thinks he will be a BIG help next year and be a solid solid player for BU in the future......
