Not to be a jerk...but why? While I'm sure he's a good player and CU would be happy to have him there's nothing in THIS video that's all that exciting. Even a few missed chippies.

I'll assume with the programs that were after him that he's a heck of a player. Just wouldn't be able to tell it from this vid.


Really, what were you watching? Did you see those dimes?! Did you see him keep himself between his man and the rim on D?! Certainly a different skill set than DMD.

Missing a few shots isn't a biggie although a strange addition to a YouTube. I'm sure someone created a video of nothing but made shots if that's what will make you happy.

Im no scout nor will I ever try to pass myself off as one, but Uthoff's quality clearly showed through during those 2! games Poneman had video of.

Im sure if someone followed him around all summer you would not see missed bunnies.

LOVE HIS GAME!

Gordon Heyward 2.0? Sign me up.

To me, I see an incredible passer with really long arms and a monster wing span. IT would appear as though he's got Gibbs-like Bball IQ, plus 4 or 5 inches of additional height.

Uthoff was McDermott's #1 target in that class back when Mac was first hired.

Don't hate.

Whoever is on campus needs to show Uthoff some major love when he comes. He has no other visits planned so far, we need to seal the deal when he comes...hopefully hanging out for a couple days w/a First Team All American will help.

Woo...just saying it wasn't the greatest highlight video I've ever seen. Other than the nice passes...and there were some it just wasn't all that exciting. Like I said, with the schools that recruited him I'm SURE he's a good player.

Good article from Piv with interesting quotes from Uthoff - definitely shows why Wisconsin has such a low recruiting ceiling despite tons of W-L success.

Wow, Bo is either really pissed or he loves Creighton. Virginia asks to speak to Uthoff and as a result, Bo puts all of the ACC on the restricted list....also, sounds like UNI is out.

I don't know if anyone is following the shit storm on twitter over Uthoff, but its pretty interesting. Everyone was hating on Bo then Dan Dakich apparently said somethings on his radio show and people are backing off a bit. Cowheard was even talking about it on his radio show today.
