Wait to save yourself from looking REALLY bad down the line. I have to learn to add a little diplomacy instead of resorting to definitive, one-sided rants.
Anyways, here's some more love for Kelm from WSN's Mark Miller:
Kelm/Wisconsin Swing
Quote:
Kyle Kelm, 6-9, PF, Randolph
An extremely skilled forward who can sink perimeter jump shots as well as score in the lane … Best perimeter shooting big man in Wisconsin since Steve Novak graduated from Brown Deer in 2002 … Is gaining weight and strength, which has helped him hold his position in the post … Currently ranked No. 6 among state prospects in the class of 2010 by Wishoops.net … Has scholarship offers from Bradley, Iowa State, UW-Green and UW-Milwaukee as well as interest from Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota State, Nothern Iowa, Notre Dame, Providence, Purdue, Syracuse and Wisconsin, among others..(continued)

One of our most pressing needs for 2010 will be true power forwards. We have a disproportionate number of 7 foot (+/- 2) posts already. Kelm's description appears tantamount to Leuer skill-set. He potentially could slide into Leuer's role in 2011, after a year of seasoning his true freshman year. The most important part of his development with me will be his ability to continually add strength comfortably, as well gain frontcourt instincts.
We need to FINALLY take advantage of the talent in state for the '09-'10 classes. We're falling in love with outsiders like Badger fans used to accuse Tom Crean of doing.
