  • Re: Deon Mitchell

    Deon was in the large school classification, I believe. The newspaper in Austin named him POY for the region (Class 1-5).
    The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

      Still trying to come to terms that he will be a Panther!!! I know we all have confidence in our program, but for a kid in the middle of Texas, who was recruited by bigger named schools, to take notice and choose us is still kind of like a dream! Can't wait to see him play in Purple and Gold!

          Good read about Deon Mitchell and his transition from HS in Texas to UNI.

            A few things I noticed. CO talking about wanting to go to a program with a good PG to come in with, looks like thanks to getting Deon we got Chris. Thats great for building chemistry with this class when they all respect the talent of their peers. Also Mrs. Mitchell's comment about snow for four months...if we're lucky it's only for four months. I hope she packed a couple PJ's for Deon

              I lived in Texas for 4 years. I also liked the "cold" days in Texas better than the warm days... however, their "cold" days are NOTHING compared to Iowa's! ha...

              With that said, I'm not worried about Deon adjusting to the cold. He will do just fine! I can't wait to see him on the court!

                On Senior Night, remember when this guy became a Panther...(enjoy the thread)

                  What a great year in conference Deon is having. His 3% shooting is outstanding and even his finishing near the rim has gotten much better. He still makes some foolish decisions, but as a whole a great Panther.

                    Deon has played great in calendar year 2015. He's become a great contributor

                      Probably the highest profile recruit to sport the purple and gold.

                      • His emergence this year is a huge reason we are ranked 10th in the country.

                          Perhaps the lesson here is that Coach Jake and staff were pretty stinking smart to stick with Deon as starter when he was struggling a bit early in the season.

                          • Actually, they were smart to limit his playing time until he figured it out. Being a starter means very little on Jake ' s teams.

                              I already like next year's duo of Wes and Lohaus.

                              Mbo is back
                              Koch will better, alot better
                              Jesperson
                              and that Morgan kid!

                              All with experience...this will be nice to have plus everyone else!

                              Wes already plays starter minutes so its not like we are losing anything there....just gotta get our post players some valuable minutes!

                              • Ted Friedman is a wild card that I am excited about.
