    BB-

    You beat me by a couple minutes on getting his profile up. I'm going to add a few things to it. Very excited.

    Previously committed to Boise State, but he was let out of his LOI after a coaching change and the offers have been rolling in. Visiting CU this week.

    Okay, what's the story on this guy? He's a 2010 recruit but not committed/signed anywhere?

    edit: nik and I were posting simultaneously. Thanx nik!!!
    We should have listened to Colorado fans.

    Me too. He would be a great late addition to this class. Hope Coach Boyle can close the deal this week.

    Arrowhead High coach Craig Haase on Mills: “The great thing about Ben is that he works hard every time he takes the floor, whether college scouts are watching him or if he is in the gym by himself. People who notice that are then willing to offer him because they see that he is going to continue to get better. Ben knows where he is at as a player and knows where he wants to be and that drives him every day to work on his skills and strength.”

    MaxPreps Profile

    Some great photos on MaxPreps, but they're copyrighted. Check them out, though. Much better than the one in his profile.

    Here were his senior stats:

    PPG: 17.3
    RPG: 11.2
    BPG: 1.4

    Wow, Boyle and crew arent jerking around that's for sure. Like alot of guys we are looking at, including this one. Not worried about his weight right now, has plenty of frame to fill out.

    Lets just put him on a steady diet of meat and potatos while living in the weight room for the summer, and he should be good to go. But my question is, he is from Wisconsin, I thought they are all corn fed up there, must just be the ladies.

    Could be metabolism I guess or when he stopped growing. My cousin went from about 6' to 6'6 in a matter of months, was wierd, his weight caught up but it took awhile before he filled out. 7'1 and has nice numbers, like he can score and rebound we need it.

    there is no way this kid is from wisconsin, everyone I know from there eats at least 4 pounds of cheese per day.

    Kid looks physically very young, has the face of a jr. high kid. With all the growing he has done he may have a metabolism that burns energy like a rocket. Looking at him he could put on 30-50lbs easy once he matures a bit.

    I am glad to see Boyle in on some of these kids with some size. They may not be McDonald all-Americans but if he can develop some inside presence to go with the wing players we have the future could be bright. If we get this kid and the kid from Texas they could work against each other in practice and develop even faster.

    I don't think we need McDonalds All Americans for big men. We need guys who can give fouls and get some rebounds.
