Nigel Williams-Goss to transfer

[madcityCY]

sorry to fan flames, but I can't help myself:

#EatorGetEaten

...or whatever Rashad Vaughn used to tweet.

Everybody needs to relax a bit. The staff has their targets and they're executing behind the scenes. Some names will become known (NN) while others won't (for good reason). NWG is a great player and will make a great addition somewhere, but not at Iowa State. That doesn't mean that we don't have other options we're looking at, because we certainly do - some are quite exciting.

Regardless, just relax and know that Fred and crew are working their butts off and things are lining up for another great offseason. You won't see everything that occurs and won't know the decisions or understand the thinking behind some of what does surface, but that isn't a bad thing and you just need to let it go.

You're such a tease

With the exception of NN and Boucher, I would not consider existing options that exciting.

Thats one way to interpret it, but I'm pretty sure its the wrong way.

I understand you're conditioned to seeing people flip out but some people merely mock those others

Want. Would be a huge grab.

Spill the beans!

I assume you haven't read the entire thread.

It isn't that ISU couldn't have gotten him. I don't see ISU going after him. In fact, I know ISU won't. Don't think Otz is interested in doing that to Lorenzo Romar.

Is there a not-so-subtle insinuation here or am I reading too much into this?

Thanks for asking for calm and reassuring tone. The season just ended Monday and the open recruiting period just started today. The staff is in the vetting process and will be selective. In fact, other than Nick N. situation I'd assume we may not know who's filling the open roster spots until late May or Summer. Still a fun and exciting couple of weeks as the possibilites become known and clearer.
Patience, we just have to hold off on setting the '16 rosters for a couple of months. :twitcy:

We didn't call Darien for several days after the Matt A thing went down. It's sounding more mutual than anything.

This. As I wrote earlier in the week, there's no way Matt would have taken Darien without Fred's blessing.

Ya, and you were not the reason for the NDSU loss last fall!!!

Because the exciting options aren't out there yet...a lot of behind the scenes work

 

[CycloneErik]

I don't know. Are you?

I can't tell. I need to be told.

Gotcha.

 

[CycloneErik]

Doesn't make a lot of sense to be honest. I've seen a dozen people do much worse in a business environment this morning alone. Maybe I'm completely immoral, but I don't see how recruiting a guy who left a program on his own accord would be ethically wrong in any way.

I have no concept of what Otz would be doing to Lorenzo Romar in this case, either.
The guy is available. Shouldn't be any professional lack of ethics to pursue him now.

 

[ILikeCy]

It isn't that ISU couldn't have gotten him. I don't see ISU going after him. In fact, I know ISU won't. Don't think Otz is interested in doing that to Lorenzo Romar.

Unless Romar sees ISU as a good fit for NWG, and steers him this direction with his blessing. I know, it's a long shot. A very, very long shot. But it's the only shot we have left to play for NWG.

 

[Cyclonepride]

Guys......I have an idea. Let's not post any recruit speculation of any kind. That way Chris can't come along and crush our dreams.

 

[Cyclonepride]

I can't tell. I need to be told.

I'm sorry, what was the question again? :twitcy:

 

[Triggermv]

They don't even let us have fun anymore
