Great! Can he devise and effectively coach football running plays that can get 3 yards? two yards?

Why would you hype a player that you're not gonna get. After one of our recruits shows obvious preference to attend another school they are hardly spoken about here..

Ah yes...the age old standby. We really didn't want him any way. Did you tell Bill Self that before he went out there two days ago?

Definitely NBA talent..put 20lbs on him and he's gonna be unstoppable. Iowa State doesn't rebuild anymore..we reload. I'm thinking 16'-17' could be better than next years team. Not even worried if Monte goes pro, but him, Jackson, Burton, one of the three bigs recruited, and Malou would be fun to watch..

A little worried about any further forward recruiting. Look at the scholarship chart and 2016 is starting to look forward heavy. Might be hard to sell minutes.

Carter, Ernst, Malou and Young. All unproven. Ernst isn't even fully healthy.

I seriously doubt 4-stars like Cook and Curry are going to find that too intimidating.

If Carter and/or Ernst blows up this year then it could be a little bit of an issue but that's not a bad problem to have.

Malou and Burton look excellent and Carter and Young look interesting to say the least. And remember, we put four players on the three point line which Prohm called "three guards and a big guard". Our version of a power forward (Niang) is more like a small forward.

that's the strangest thing to worry about that I can imagine. It's going to be hard to recruit because we got too many recruits?

That's just because of Niang's game/play style. You tailor your lineups/offense according to what you have.

Forwards were the biggest concern following next season and Prohm and his staff took care of that. A point in case Monte leaves after next season was also a concern..took care of that. I think the coaching staff knows what it needs for the future and are taking care of business.

I owe you an apology. I assumed (apparently incorrectly) that you were a KU fan from the post I responded to previously. Sorry about that! :)
