Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Saturday

Adam Zagoria@AdamZagoria 4m On the recruiting front, I talked to a few people close to the @ShowtimeMr situation who think UNLV has a real good shot here.

To be fair let's add in Zagoria's follow up tweet.

Always thought ISU was in good shape but sounds like UNLV has made inroads. IF he went there, would be part of a class w/ Morgan & Okonoboh

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Saturday

Look, if the kid doesn't want to develop in college and doesn't want to play against the country's best competition while on the biggest stage, that's on him.

We've all been up and down on this for over a year. Just make the decision - we can take it.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Saturday

I'm worried. REALLY worried. My question for RV is what do you see at UNLV? Iowa State has much more to offer.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Saturday

Guys, it's ONE player. Will I be elated if he shows up a Cyclone? Heck yeah!

Will our team fall apart and miss the NCAA next year without RV? Heck NO!

Get some perspective.

BTW - I think all the nervous nelly's need to go do a shot or something. That gives me an idea......

Calm down guys, we still have a great shot despite what the UNLV people want us to think.

We will be fine regardless, folks. Just assume he isn't coming.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Saturday

I don't think it's as big of deal as others make it to be. If he comes here, wonderful. If he doesn't, Fred will find a great player who can contibute multiple years rather than just one. Also, if he goes to UNLV we can rest assured there was nothing we could do once he left the Midwest. In that case, the $ got to him.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Saturday

I don't know why people are acting like UNLV doesn't have anything to offer. They've been getting Top 50 talent for years now. Obviously, they have something to offer.

Nah, I'm going to assume that he's making a decision this weekend. I don't need to mentally prepare myself for whatever his decision is. Just glad it's almost over.

look...As much as I'd like to have the kid..i have 100% faith that CFH will acquire every bit as good a fit for our team if he doesn't come.

hes projected one and done.....would anyone trade George's niangs college career for nerlens Noel's? I wouldn't...I'm glad we have George's for 2 more years.

we could very well miss on him and get a great player anyway. THAT'S where this program is now. I don't say that dismissing the impact a player of his caliber would mean for the program....but it's not going to be back breaking if he doesn't.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Saturday

I still have hope that he will commit to the good guys. That said, if he doesn't pick us, I'd rather have him commit to UNLV than Huckleberry Hound, Calamari, or KU. I am just glad that the announcement is coming this Saturday instead of March or April. This way, if he doesn't commit, Fred has more time to implement "Plan B."

I completely agree. RV gave us a solid look and that is what you can hope for. If it is indeed UNLV, no worries...the staff did everything they could. We will be fine if he does indeed choose another school.

Agreed. It's not like he owes us anything. Not a local guy, and even if he was he still wouldn't. And if we don't get him I hope we don't use the classic Iowa line. "WDWHA"
