Size, shot-blocking, and rebounding give Northern Colorado a classic paint presence
At Northern Colorado in the 2015-16 season, Jeremy Verhagen was a true interior big who brought value through rim protection, rebounding, and physical play rather than flashy scoring. His high school profile showed elite blocking numbers, and his college role reflected that same defensive-first identity. He’s the kind of forward who can change a possession with size and effort, making him a useful fit for teams needing toughness, paint defense, and a low-maintenance frontcourt presence.
