Latest UW basketball recruit Khalil Iverson looks familiar

Madison — Wisconsin coach Bo Ryan had received a scouting report on Khalil Iverson from his staff.

He had seen video clips of the 6-foot-5 forward from Rutherford B. Hayes High School in Delaware, Ohio.

Then after seeing Iverson play last winter, Ryan was reminded of a player of similar size and athletic ability who fared quite well at UW:

Alando Tucker.

"He watched him for about 10 minutes," Hayes coach Jordan Blackburn said Wednesday, "and he said: 'Yep. Tucker.'"

Iverson signed a national letter of intent Wednesday to officially become the fourth member of UW's 2015 class.
