There are a number of incoming Nevada recruits—-a half dozen in total—-that the Pack faithful are waiting to see anxiously.  There are also four additional players who did not suit up last year that will play next year, which is why SilverandBlueSports felt it was time to give fans a scouting report (SR) on each [...]

Recent Nevada addition Kevin Panzer, a 6-foot-9, 205-pound shooting forward from Capistrano Valley high school in Orange County, was one to watch on the AAU scene this past summer. We first caught him at the Cal Elite Camp in Northern California, and you can see why we didn’t miss him.

He was probably the top surprise addition to the Nevada roster for the 2010-11 season, but East Chicago point guard Derrell Conner will quickly be a Pack veteran. As one of just three upperclassmen—-all juniors—-he will be looked up to immediately for leadership by Nevada head coach David Carter’s second Pack squad.

When we first saw Kevin Panzer this summer in Northern California, he wasn’t the first player who jumped out at us.  That distinction would go to Bakersfield (Calif.) athlete Jordan Burris.  However, Panzer wasn’t far behind, and coincidentally enough both he and Burris will play together at Nevada.

A little more than a week ago, Nevada hosted two Junior College prospects on official visits, including the already signed Australian big man Illiwa Baldwin. The other visitor was a former East Chicago (Ind.) high school point guard named Derrell Conner, who decided today to sign with Nevada as well.

SilverandBlueSports caught up with the Pack’s tallest recruit a year ago in former Paramount (Calif.) high school standout Devonte Elliott.  Listen in to the future member of the Pack speak about what he’s been doing the past year to get ready for his first season at Nevada.

SilverandBlueSports caught up with the Pack’s most recent basketball recruiting addition, former Compton (Calif.) Centennial guard Deontè Burton for a sit down.  Listen in to the CIF Southern Section Division III Player of the Year speak about a handful of subjects.

Although he has signed his National Letter of Intent with Nevada already, one player who is still a bit of a mystery to Nevada fans is future Pack backcourt prospect Jordan Finn.  SilverandBlueSports caught up with the former Etiwanda star for a two-part video interview to introduce him to the Nevada faithful.

Just minutes before he signs his National Letter of Intent with the University of Nevada, SilverandBlueSports.com spoke with Deontè Burton, the talented Compton (Calif.) Centennial high school star for his first statements regarding his decision to play for Pack head coach David Carter.

Following the path a number of prep standouts have taken, including two early 2010 NBA Draft entrees, Centennial high school high-rising scorer Deonta Burton decided to bring his game to University of Nevada.
