I would suggest that to say he will be "playing" for Taylor, may be a bit of a stretch...

Sittler is a point guard that will be a hard worker for Patterson. A good academic student and the type of player that’s never bad to have on a team. His father played for Patterson.

That is correct his father played at Taylor, his mother is athletic as well, I think she still teaches at Columbia City.
He is a good kid and agree on the good to have on your team post, I'd like to see Jake stay with it and finish out 4 years in that program regardless of playing time.
Yet another former Tiffany's 17-U player under Coach King playing in the MCC. I think that is the 7th player total from the same team.

Sittler is a true point guard. Averaged 3 pts and 3.5 assists as a junior and 6 points and 4 assists as a senior. He's a pass first and pass second guard, however, he has the capability to knock down the three when need be. Has a great basketball IQ and can read the floor very well. In case you were wondering his mom played at Central Michigan. I will circle the Taylor IWU game and couple extra times on this year's calender since it'll be against my boy Jake.

I wish him the best...Simply saying that Taylor has a strong returning group and has brought in some strong transfers and other recruits.
His mom could have played in the WNBA, but if he still had those numbers, it wouldn't instantly make me think he would get much time, if any, as a freshmen.

Anyone know about another big guy HU is taking a look at? I heard he might redshirt/be a practice player his first year .... did anyone else hear anything about this? Or did i just create that in my head?

I don't know if this is anything...But I honestly don't think it matters, so I will share it, if this is what it is...
Back in December I checked out a kid from Yorktown for the coaches (not Kampen), but I don't think that went anywhere. However, Yorktown was playing Delta the game I went to. One coach indicated that the big kid from Delta (only 6'5 or 6'6) was planning on coming to HU and was going to play but wasn't getting money, but that may be who you are hearing of. I am not really sure. He played ok against Kampen, seemed to be kind of a hustle guy, not a lot of offensive ability that I saw in the one game. I can't even remember his name. He would be behind Kennedy, Stoffel, Lash, and Nafziger for sure on the depth chart as freshmen.
Not sure if that is what it is or not. That also was from December...the kid could have changed his mind. But I think it is safe to assume anyone else at this point is a walk on with no hope for money. I think we are stretched there to the max.

I think Jennings is on the radar, because I too heard that name in a conversation with someone. But, I don't know any more than that, despite my reputation for near omniscience.
