Rashad Vaughn - Not going to ISU

[Althetuna]

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Tuesday

I do not know the name of the recruit in question. I was simply told by this coach that RV wanted this other recruit WITH him because without him apparently he felt UNLV would be weak, too weak. That might get him to ISU. The coach did recruit him but got nowhere and turned him down to even visit. He is just very sure that RV is going to the Rebs. He even went so far as to say he feared playing time in Ames because of the talent Fred is getting. Then the very next sentence was he also was noticing how many prime time games the Cyclones are getting and how that peaked his curiosity.

i love the Cyclones, and have had season tickets for years. I want us to get him but this coach convinced me different, subject to a couple of things. That's all.

and CycloneErik, I know you are attached to the program, more so than I, but my business travels permit me to meet and befriend several college coaches and AD's. I'm not trying to pull a power thing here, I was just chiming in. I should've put more facts up in the first place. My personal thoughts are we put wayyyyy to much energy I to guys like this and Harrison Barnes, she we should continue getting the Ejims of the world and assemble a team, just like now.

Yup, lack of confidence is a common trait in potential "one & dones".:skeptical: (If he can't crack the starting line up at a major conference school, maybe he isn't ready for the NBA.)

I'm calling B.S. You might be right and RV goes to UNLV but at the end of the day you know about as much about it as I do.... which is absolutely nothing.

I suggest you put up or shut up.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Tuesday

The network on which he is making his declaration is more telling than who he follows on twitter.

You would have thought Cyclone fans would realize that how and where a recuit makes his decision doesn't give away where he may go.

*cough* Harrison Barnes *cough*

ESPN's Director of Basketball Recruiting:
@PaulBiancardi: Rashad Vaughn will be announcing his college decision tomorrow night from 6-7pm on CBS Sports show, Inside college basketball. UNLV or ISU

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Tuesday

Rothstein: Monday Morning College Hoops Notebook; Virginia, Arizona State & More « CBS New York

- Findlay Prep’s Rashad Vaughn will announce his college decision on Tuesday and will commit to either UNLV or Iowa State. The 6-6 shooting guard is the top uncommitted prospect in the Class of 2014 and has Ben McLemore type ability. This will be an impact freshman to watch next season in college basketball.

Rothstein seems to believe that it's a done deal to either UNLV or ISU. Maybe he misspoke, so take this like everything else in this thread, basically worthless.

The Star Tribune link 'Package deal' for former Cooper star Vaughn draws scrutiny | Star Tribune seems to imply the Las Vegas odds were against any school other than UNLV from the beginning. Feel free to figure out the implications.

That should have been obvious. I still think he may come here, but moving to Vegas clearly made UNLV the favorite to get him.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Tuesday

RV is not coming off the bench if he comes to ISU.

Pretty sure MccloNe was being sarcastic...

Right?

The ugly side of what is going down. I will be totally stunned if the kid chooses ISU.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Tuesday

So people who follow recruiting for a living are saying that neither Rice nor Hoiberg knows anything.

We have people on this board saying Vaughn has already told Hoiberg he is going to UNLV.

UNLV fans are sure he is going there.

He unfollowed Hoiberg and Matt A on twitter some undetermined time ago.

Cyclone fans are arguing about where he will go and calling each other idiots when in reality, no one knows yet.

Vaughn is set to announce tomorrow at 5:30 CT on CBS Sports.

That about cover it?

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Tuesday

It could be he is playing in Nevada and that is the CBS Sport that is covering it. If he was playing on the East Coast do you think this same CBS affiliate would be covering it?

You may be posting about a future Cyclone here. Feel free to wait a day to post things like this.

It's one day people, a little patience !!!

Media is saying Rice and Hoiberg don't know, but I can promise you they do. Or, at least Hoiberg and his staff do.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Tuesday

Simply out of respect for the kid. If I was Fred and I lost out, I would still keep it quiet. Who knows, they may run into each other down the road.

It's a no brainer for Fred, but all these people that seem to know details are vague. They heard it from somewhere so obviously people are talking or else these people are full of crap.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Tuesday

How do we have so many people posting on CF that have insider knowledge of what is otherwise a very private announcement? Either RV's inner circle has a bigger leak than Deepwater Horizon or some people are just making **** up. The same goes with Fred and the coaching staff as we have had multiple people claim that they know for a fact what the staff has been told.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Tuesday

Sounds like he might be concerned about playing time here. Could be solid off the bench though.

You might consider connecting yourself to a different coach. That can't possibly be what happens.

It's like this everywhere. Fred tells staff, staff tells people close to them, people close to them tell people close to them. It's an extremely slow leakage, but a leakage none the less.

RV follows Peter Jok on twitter.


He's a Hawk guys, time to move on.

I'd say if Hoiberg knows then Rice likely knows too.

I think no one knows right now but RV will probably call whichever coach he is going to play for before he goes on tv.

Just like the Harrison Barnes announcement. Roy Williams knew HB was going there before the announcement was made. He wouldn't have had his whole team on Skype if he wasn't expecting the call.

Except 98% of it is complete ********.
