Dragons get commitment from SDSU transfer Broden Lien. Lien (cousin of former msum player Aaron Lien) is a 6’8 forward with three years of eligibility remaining. Msum recruited Broden heavily out of high school and will hopefully give the dragons a nice front court next season with Zimmer coming back for his senior season. Lien and Jenkins also provide the dragons with the potential for a strong front court in the future.

Dragons get commit from Colorado State transfer 7’1” center Jacob Jennissen. Another front court player that was fairly highly recruited out of high school. He has had some injury trouble the past few years and has 3 years of eligibility remaining. On paper it’s been a good week for the dragons’ friont court, which is shaping up to possibly be one of better msum front courts in years. If dragons pick up another guard or two (which they have a number of offers out at the moment) they should be strong again next year.

He played 6 games and 7 minutes TOTAL in three years at CSU.

Oof.

I just looked it up, because I was curious how similar the situations were. Former Mankato big man Travis Nelson was a rotation player both years at Wyoming (a CSU conference rival) and started 16 games.

Yes, but my understanding is that injuries were a significant issue. I believe he had 2 acl injuries. I think if he is healthy he will help the dragons this next season. We will see.

Yeah until that third ACL blows out…..

I sure hope not for his sake. I’m sure he’s worked hard trying to rehab from the 2 prior injuries (just ask Parker Fox whom is apparently going to give it another try with the Gophers), but you’re right…there is always the possibility of injury. It’s rumored he is back on the court this offseason without any injury restrictions/limitations. If that is true, and he can remain healthy in the future, I believe he will help the dragons. Don’t see how dragons taking a bit of a gamble on his injury is a bad idea. We all know how hard it is to find big guys in d2 basketball.

Jennissen is a gamble for sure, but 7'1" guys are rare and is worth taking a chance on. The Broden Lien transfer is a great get.

I wonder if Parker Fox has eaten any humble pie since his heady days at Northern.

Moorhead gets commitment from D2 transfer 6’4” guard Ja’Kair Sanchez. Sanchez was third team all-ECC last season and has two years of eligibility remaining. Won’t be surprised if Dragons add another transfer guard to the 2023 team.
