Corn Elder

[theu51]

Looks like he will be on the team next year, on a football scholly. Had an offer from Purdue. One of the main bball recruiting guys really likes him, but lots see him as a high-mid major guy. None the less it is an awesome pickup. He will be considered a walk-on on the basketball team and doesn't use a scholly but is another much needed body.

He was rated as a 2 or 3 star PG. Could be a solid backup to Shane next year.

Had an offer from Purdue for Bball and a lot of mid-magers if I didn't make that clear. Had a tonnn of top football offers including OSU, FSU etc. Ranked in the top 160 overall for football.

He's better at football but his heart is with Bball so we will see. Great to have a body on the bench though and not give up a scholly

Awesome! We need a backup PG, so anything he can give us on the basketball court will be a big help. Looks like he's a very good football player, too.

Am I missing something or isn't Deandre Burnett going to be our back up PG?

Dammit, that was my line. I saw this thread, then had to go teach, and was going to post that when I got back. But, seriously, his name is Corn?

He had offers from Jacksonville, Tennessee State and Middle Tennessee along with Purdue. Here is his ESPN profile

Nothing is set in stone, nothing matters at this point either as we haven't had one practice for 2014 yet.

I've posted this on the recruiting board but i'll put it here too.

In basketball my friend says he is a LOCKDOWN defender. This past summer he has locked down players like Solomon Poole and Kasey Hill.

He is super quick and fast but he is not really a scorer. As a walk on I think it is great. We'll see if he sticks with it or not though.
