Next Year Potential Lineup with Rival's *star* system

[isucubs]

Monte Morris..4* (96th Nationally) Monte Morris - Yahoo! Sports
Matt Thomas .. 4* (54th Nationally) Matt Thomas - Yahoo! Sports
Gorges Niang.. 4* (69th Nationally) Georges Niang - Yahoo! Sports
Clayton Custer.. 4* (90th Nationally) Clayton Custer - Yahoo! Sports

Hopeful

Rashad Vaughn.. 5* (7th Nationally) Rashad Vaughn - Yahoo! Sports
Josh Cunningham 4* (80th Nationally) Josh Cunningham - Yahoo! Sports


The only thing that tempers my excitement is the fact we would still be a really small team even with that major upgrade in talent. So imagine this, lets say we get custer,vaughn, and Cunningham. That would make six 4 stars or higher and ALL of which are top 100 players. The awesome thing is we'd have a player that good sitting on the bench trying to GET minutes.


Agreed on the Nader post (forgot about him somehow)

Abdel Nader...3* (no rating, but look at the offers) http://rivals.yahoo.com/iowastate/basketball/recruiting/player-Abdel-Nader-108022

 

[CyTwins]

No way Nader doesn't start next year

 

[coolerifyoudid]

Just as long as we stick to fundamentals and do things the right way still

 

[cyclones12321]

Crazy. Really looks good when u lay it out that way. Way excited for isu basketball

 

[WastedTalent]

Custer doesn't start. He's a possible redshirt.

 

[Cyclonic1]

I like Custer a lot but he won't be replacing Morris next year or even likely to be in the same lineup.

 

[cyclonedave25]

Fred is building a monster.

 

[isucubs]

I just really hope somehow Fred can find a 6'10-11" guy who doesn't have to score whatsoever, but if he can bang against big bodies we'd have a pretty decent "complete" college team for next year. First things first, go get Vaughn and go get Cunningham. Go clones!

 

[bosco]

Hoibergstein's Monster. Because it was named after the creator.

 

[bawbie]

Custer doesn't start. He's a possible redshirt.

Wow. No way. I bet he's one of the first guys off the bench

 

[clone4life82]

Don't forget about Jameel Mckay (still a possibility but falls in the same category as RV and JC)... he was a 4 * out of HS as well. Jameel McKay - Yahoo! Sports

 

[NATEizKING]

Custer won't RS, Morris is the only true PG on the roster this year and next year.

 

[RustShack]

Lol no way Custer RS's. Morris can't be the only PG on the team.

 

[Cydkar]

Fred is building a monster.

I'll respectfully disagree until I see this recruiting class shape up.

 

[gocubs2118]

Wow. No way. I bet he's one of the first guys off the bench

Exactly. He'll be doing what Monte is doing this year.

 

[Stumbles]

Adding Vaughn and Cunningham to this class would be the ****.

Smaller team, but you could make two pretty darn good starting 5s out of that. Almost be like a total line change.

 

[RustShack]

Morris-Thomas-Vaughn-Nader-Niang

 

[Bewilderme]

Even without Vaughn:

Morris - Thomas - Hogue - Nader - Niang

bench:
Long
Percy
SDW
Custer
Edozie

That's a pretty sick team. Add in a McKay or Vaughn here or there and wow!

 

[bringmagicback]

whats with Niangs offer list, at his ranking to have a kinda poor offer list. Plus he is a smart likeable kid that from what it seems is no risk of being in trouble

He committed to us pretty early and before he blew up from what I remember.
