Josh Cunningham

Both will commit here, and someone on the roster will transfer out who isn't getting minutes this year, and knows they will be even harder to get next year.

Take it to the bank, Vaughn and Cunningham will be Cyclones.

What does this mean? Does this mean you are willing to front some money?
 
Hoiberg will make the numbers work. He's not going to pass a chance to upgrade his roster. The only really safe bets to be here next year are McKay, Nader, Niang, Hogue, Custer, MM and MT. After that I wouldn't bet money on it.

The numbers work now so no need to speculate
 
I would have to assume a decision for Cunningham is coming soon. His official visits to Oklahoma and ISU are complete and he is visiting Bradley today. We'll probably know where he is going in the next few days.
 
When guys leave, our APR rating goes down and it's already low enough that our coaches have to be careful.

If I understand the rules correctly, you have to worry when you are below a score of 925, but I also understand there has been talk of lifting that threshhold. If you go to this website https://web1.ncaa.org/maps/tiwitytilamvmaprRelease.jsp you can search on schools or conferences. The last reported year there is 2011-2012. At that point ISU MBB APR was 949, so not at the point there would be possible santions. Oklahoma State was at 928, so on the edge, and former conference member T A&M was only at 912. Another academic year has passed, and if I remember correctly, Fred reported that the MBB had it's best GPA ever last year, thus the APR should be trending up not down (I believe it is a 4-year average). Bottom line is true that we always need to watch this, but it doesn't seem to be a limiting factor in the short term scholarship conversation...debate on.
 
Just posted this in the 2014 add/losing thread.
@ReggieRankin: Breaking News: ESPN 100 PF/SF Dante Buford has informed me that he is headed to Oklahoma over finalist South Carolina and Miami (FL)

One would think this would take Lon and Oklahoma out of consideration for Cunningham.
 
Buford's Crystal Ball prediction was correct although most choices were made yesterday so the prediction probably wasn't really a prediction. Four people changed their choice from South Carolina to Oklahoma yesterday. In summary, these Crystal Ball predictions are worthless. The choices look right in the end but they were wrong all the way up until the decision was made when his choice was probably leaked to them anyways.

Dante Buford's Crystal Ball Predictions
Oklahoma 71%
South Carolina 18%
Miami 12%

They are for entertainment purposes and based on the best guess of the people making them. If you are taking predictions as stone cold fact, you're the one that has the problem, not 247.

These crystal ball predictions are genius - the amount of pub and talk they have generated about 247's site has got to be invaluable in their industry.
