Nice. Very nice. Thanks for staying obsessively on top of things, sir.

2013 big man Tony Nunn has committed to North Texas. Tennessee was interested.

At some point, I'll do some housecleaning and updates in the recruiting forum, too.

Not a lot of elevation... Granted, the guy is somewhere in the mid-200's, and not everyone is going to be above the rim like Tony. He'll definitely be able to push his way around in the paint.

UNT90 · July 8, 2012

Nice size. Anyone know anything about his game?

It looks like we aren't just recruiting locally anymore.

Maybe a little out of shape in the video? Hard to tell from the angle of the camera.

If he can score in the low post, I welcome him with open arms.

260+, man... You may have to stretch out to execute the hug.

Offers from charlotte, cincy, wake, Tennessee, Wichita state, and ECU.

That's encouraging... I was worried, not finding any decent photos, that we may be getting a guy built like incoming UALR recruit Andrew "His name is Robert Paulson" Poulter.

It looks like we aren't just recruiting locally anymore.

Outside the kids we have listed from WV & Chicago, I found a few more ( that we have yet to offer) from Georgia,Arizona & California. This staff seems to be looking all over the country

NT03 · July 8, 2012

Coleman & Nunn, sure will be a lot of beef in the middle

greenminer · July 8, 2012

UTEP signed a 7'1 kid. If we can't out reach'm, maybe we can just shove him out of the way?

*edit, and a 6'8 guard.

Nice like the size!!!

Cooley · July 8, 2012

Like what I see down low; albeit against smaller guys.

Lebron James is 6'8 260, so not a bad size at all. Excited to see him play. Looks like he had lots of good offers.

When is the next signing period? Like the fact that Michigan State looked at him.

NT03 · July 8, 2012

I wonder if he is related to Kendrick ? Kendrick Nunn is one of the top SG in the nation and a former Texas A&M verbal. Bendord recruited him @ Marquette , signed a former teammate of his there (top player in Illinois in 2011) & we currently have an offer to a current teammate , Pollard, from Chicago.

Just a thought ...

Cooley · July 8, 2012

I'm thinking CUSA helped with this commitment. Hopefully we can hold onto this guy. Stock appears to be rising.

After a little more reading, seems like a very out of the blue commit that could blow up his senior year. Nov 14 can't get here quick enough.

Nice get, Coach Benford.

MeanGreenHoops · July 8, 2012

Really love this pickup. Like his moves and touch down low.

TheTastyGreek · July 8, 2012

Used to be over 300 pounds? Wow.

oldschoollefty · July 8, 2012

Good to see a post player who plays well with his back to the basket. Didn't see many defensive highlights on those videos, so I'm hoping he can defend the paint as well.
