UNI gets recruit

It's just been announced that UNI signed Carlton Reed. 2004 Mr. Basketball in the state of Iowa. Transferred from Iowa, and is from Waterloo. UNI now has one scholarship remaining.
 
Regarding the Stephen Jones signing for UNI: Jones' H.S. team (Bethalto Civic Memorial) is in the same conference as my alma mater. I had a chance to see him over Winter Break at a shootout back home, and I wasn't overly impressed by him. Solid ballhandler, good decision-maker and floor leader, but nothing really stood out IMO. Then again, the team he played in that game featured three D1 recruits, including Thaddeus Young (one of the top seniors in the nation; I think he's committed to Ga. Tech) so maybe my opinion was a little skewed. I don't think Jones will be an all-conference player or anything, but I'm sure he'll fit in well with UNI's system with what he brings to the table.
 
Thanks for the first hand observation. I don't expect Panther fans to think he is the next star at UNI. Probably very much like John Little...4 solid years of steady basketball (maybe even hit a hot streak in his senior year when we need one). Blue collar guys (a self described blue collar guy) fit well into UNI's system.
