That program is in shambles. He could possibly get 2 years but as far as I know they haven't been accepted into the conference yet. If they do get in they are going to get pounded by those team. The northern sun is one of the best D2 conferences in the country.
I think they would do just fine in the northern sun. Their recruiting class for this year is excellent with BK and Nik. NDSU made a mistake not offering Nik. He is better than a majority of the players on the roster right now.
BK is a long way away from being able to compete in the Northern Sun. He can't hold his own against a 6'4'' post what is he going to do against 6'10'' - 7' kids that he is going to play against on a nightly basis. From the way it sounds, alot of what he has to improve is above his shoulders. There is a reason that UMary quit recruiting him.
With that said, he does have great base and could become a good player if the light comes on but based on what I saw last weekend he has a ways to go. I do hope that everything works out for him - I just question why choose USF if they are entering a new conference and aren't going to have anything to play for a couple years.
