2016 guard Tom Wilson on his SMU commitment: "They ticked all of the boxes."

I hope they use the last 2016 scholarship on a big.

"Despite offers from Connecticut, Gonzaga, Boise State and California, among others, the 1.93m guard decided to commit to Southern Methodist University (SMU) to play for the legendary coach."

Isn't he on the national team with that SMU legacy Big man-thought there was speculation they might be a package deal. Any way under the circumstances getting a kid with offers from UCONN, Gonzaga and Cal is a positive

Nice get. This kid can shoot and I know Hoopmanx is high on him.

BTW, I don't like the "Despite offers from...." Makes it sound like SMU is a lesser option.

Yes, we want his best friend Harry Froling who has twin sisters playing on the women's team

Billy is crediting this all to Jank

for those that hadn't heard some of the scuttlebutt about the guy before here is some background on his experience playing as Captain for Australia in the FIBA U19 and U17 World Championships

Doubt we would've gotten his commitment with a postseason ban hanging over our head for next season

Yes. McDowell, Wilson and Froling would be a solid class.

Damn fur'en-ers and their communist metric system.

1.93 meters = 6 feet and 3.98425197 inches

Here are a few of the highlights from the FIBA U17 World Championship game. Wilson is #7 taking the ball to the hole a couple of times. No highlights of his outside jumper....

This is the full game. I believe Wilson was the game's leading scorer with 23 points.

averaged 12.3 points 6.6 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 7 games in the FIBA U17 Championships including a big performance of 23 points 6 rebounds and 7 assists against the United States team. There are also links to all his prior FIBA participation

And the propaganda continues.

so I guess you were wrong if he had offers from UCONN, Gonzaga and Cal among others. Looks like he has competed at a very high International level and performed best against some of the best talent in the United States

And the idiocy continues

10:15 mark of the full game clip, that's him beating the #1 player in the 2016 class, Josh Jackson, to the hoop and getting the +1
