Recruit Lists v2.0

While we will remember Ejim for his highlight reel dunks and fairly consistent threes as a senior, he had a very good 10-15 foot jumper, gasp, a mid range game. Hoiball had plenty of room for that. What Fred hates is the J on or just inside the three point line which he calls the worst or lowest percentage shot in regular offenses.
After watching both this video and his rivals video, I like this kid a lot. The kid has nice stroke, nice height, and a nice frame. If I can compare his play and his body to anyone, it would probably have to be Chris Babb. Is he built like a brick house like Babb yet? No, not even close, but I'd say the frame is there where this kid could really add some weight and muscle to, and a kids frame has as much to do with adding strength than anything. SDW is the perfect example. While SDW has added quite a bit of weight and muscle on, the kid is never going to be a super strong kid. He just doesn't have the frame for it. To me, AJ does have that possibility and could be a pretty deadly weapon with a bunch of strength added in there, just like Babb was. Count me in for this kid.
One thing I notice with every kid Fred recruits…. Excellent in the transition/fast break game...
@TravisHines21: Iowa State has received a commitment from 7-foot-1 Greek national Giorgos Tsalmpouris, per a source.

Cheick Diallo really attacks rebounds with both hands at the highest point. Then he changes ends like a sprinter. #eybl

Diallo taking over on both ends with his activity and aggression. Has led Team Scan back and has them in a good spot in OT vs. NY Lightning

Diallo fouls out and NY Lightning turns a four point deficit into a two point lead in the blink of an eye. #eybl

Hope Diallo still is looking at us. Seems like all the gurus have him going to Kentucky already. Dang it anyway. The only part of college basketball I just hate is programs like Calipari's ( and KU, UNC, etc.) getting all the elite guys every year. Then they can do it again the next year because the elite talent goes to the NBA. If you ask me, no way is the college game based on a level playing field. But then again, what in life is? Does the Greek commit indicate anything concerning our chances with Diallo? Hopefully not.
I've read alot about UK as a favorite, but not Kansas (yet). Isn't there ever one top 10 recruit that just once they wouldn't be on our same list? Geez.
Just like all the gurus had Vaughn going to UNC... obviously he didn't come here, but he didn't end up at UNC either.
Good point. Except...not sure RV's recruitment scenario will be duplicated again. He had everyone guessing, didn't he? (maybe even Kaffey -haha)

Just re-opened his recruitment. Specifically mentions ISU as a place he wants to visit.
