Regarding Cunningham, I saw an interview with him where he mentioned that for his high school he plays the 4 and 5 out of necessity but plays the 3 for AAU, where many feel he has a much higher ceiling. Apparently throughout the spring he showed increased range out to the 3 point line and more of a dribble penetration game. I wonder if he wouldn't be used like Clyburn was as a 3/4 combo. Seems like it would be a good plan if he can bulk up a bit.

This is exactly how I see him as a collegiate player - prototype wing/ SF.

Grandstaff #52 and Jarvis Johnson #55 in latest 2015 ESPN rankings.

ESPN Basketball Recruiting - Player Rankings - ESPN

Eric Davis is in there as well but I consider him a MSU/UM guy.
Ellenson comes in at 29, we are still recruiting him right?
Also diallo is 11 or something, I think we were on him early, but doubt we have a shot with him

Also noskowiak comes in at 56, although he's a marquette man, worth noting

Aren't we also recruiting 2015 ESPN60 #10 Cheick Diallo and #29 Henry Ellenson? I recall seeing their names in the past but I'm not sure if we're still recruiting them.

Look up four posts. I didn't expect ellenson to be so highly ranked but I'm pretty sure we've been in on him for maybe a year, same with diallo.

So totally glad we got Custer, very happy about that, but now I'm looking forward and trying to see who is the next "likely/probable" commit? And honestly I have no clue! I'd like to see everyones opinion on who they want and who they think will commit. Out of Vaughn, Abu, Terrell, Cunningham, Moore, O'Mara (don't want), Macura, Travis, Zabo, Davis, Colson.

I would say Cunningham is our next commit. Just a hunch. Nothing really to support that.

I would say Grandstaff would commit a few months later.

I really feel good about Cunningham too. Not sure he will be our next commit, but the staff has apperantly made him a priority, "calling him nearly every single day."

I have a feeling we end up with Davis and Cunningham. I don't mean that in a bad way at all, just a hunch. Would love to be wrong and pull Abu and Vaughn but no sense in expecting that at the moment.

Don't know much about the kid, besides the fact he's a big. Why don't you like him?

From a free rivals article:

Austin Grandstaff: If Grandstaff were playing quarterback, he would be described as a gunslinger type who is always looking for the deep ball. As a combo guard, that willingness to attack serves him well. He's proven himself as a top 50 player in 2015, and he is a capable playmaker off the dribble with good size. One thing he does well that mostyoungguards don't is he shoots just as well off the dribble andmove as he does spotted up with his feet set.

No real idea. I suppose the players that have stated planned visits coming up would have the most potential. Jaylen Johnson and Austin Grandstaff.

I doubt Vaughn commits anywhere till next spring. (I feel he really likes the attention). Note: ESPN list ISU as the dark horse for his commitment in the recruitingbattles update yesterday, behind UNC and Kentucky.

Abu wants to commit sometime in the Fall, and has been mentioning ISU in recent updates recruiting him and Terrell hard. Fingures crossed we get a visit from both. Abu had one planned last year but it fell through.
