USD Welcomes Terrell Brown

[Coyote Fan]

Just got a verbal from one of the best high school players in Colorado. Looks like the football recruiting has bled over into basketball for Colorado recruits. Go Yotes!

USD got a verbal commitment from Terrell Brown, a 6-4, 185-pound guard/wing from Colorado on Sunday. Brown already has more than 1,000 points in high school, playing at William J. Palmer High in Colorado Springs.

According to various internet reports he is one of the top high school players in Colorado this year and was being recruited by other small and mid-majors.

Brown, an all-conference player last year who averaged 17.9 points, 5.8 rebounds and 2 steals a game while shooting .840 from the free throw line, was second-team all-state and first-team all-conference.

Brown joins Nimrod Hilliard as a Coyote recruit from the class of 2011.

It looks like Boots is starting to like athletic/slasher type players. Boots used to rely alot on big beef in the middle and finess outside shooters from the outside. Now it's defense, toughness and athletisism. I like it.

Hilliard and Brown are huge gets for USD. Let's hope we can retain them.

Looks like coach Boots is done recruiting for this 2011 class as only two seniors this season. Looks like three scholarships to give for 2012.

I wonder if that was Mr. Brown with the coaching staff at Red Steakhouse after the football game. I'm guessing so. DDays was a good day to have a big time recruit on campus. Great timing if that was him.

I thought I saw Boots and the rest of the coaching staff with about three kids at the tailgate area on DDays. They weren't drinking of course.

Also, how great of a recruiting place will Red Steakhouse be? I think it will be great to bring a lot of recruits there.

I will tell you that when you have one scholarship left, & u wine & dine 3 kids, the best players do not want to be left on the outside looking in, & grab what is offered before somebody else does.

USD is becoming the place to be w/ our facilities, schedule, coaching, & campus.

USD is doing a good job recruiting despite the Dakotadome not because of it. For football different story. The rest of the campus is getting a major facelift so that is not hurting things. Great job by Dave and Joey to get these supposed nice players. Imagine if a new arena becomes inked. Depending on how long the groundbreaking would take and the constrution some of the recruits that are signing on now could be far enough out to have a chance to play in a new facility. At least we can only hope so.

The campus has been transformed in the last 5 years. It looks great and even though current students will complain about the removal of the parking spot in front of the MUC turning that area into a green zone is going to be great. If we can get a new BB/VB arena and practice facilities I can only imagine the tragectory of both teams will continue to go up.
