Great article in the Cleveland newspaper on Pardon, his family and his decision to commit to NU.

Well spoken young man. Good luck to him and his team against St. V's!!! LBJ will be watching......

This is probably the best way of putting it I've ever heard. "You can't fall and break your education."

Father (Donald Pardon) knows best.

That's a fantastic quote.

What a great talking point for NU! Every NU recruiter needs to hard wire this quote into his/her very being, especially Chris C. and Fitz.

Seems like exactly the type of player NU/CC is looking for.

Don't want to heave too much expectations on the young man, so if Pardon can be a bigger version of Skelly next season (work around the basket, grab rbds and pass to open teammates), I'll take that.

If CC & Co. can land another true center (high demand, low supply) in the next recruiting class (or the one after that), the 'Cats should be in pretty good shape when it comes to bigs.

After Olah leaves, that would leave Pardon (and new recruit) at the 5 w/ Skelly having the flexibility to play both the 4 & 5 Spots; so Skelly, Falzon and Tap (who can play the 3 or 4 spot) at the 4 (Lumpkin can move to the 3).
