****Official Class of 2016 Recruiting Thread****

ISU has gotten two crystal ball picks for Kostas:

I heard that ISU was no longer recruiting him anymore so this is a strange turn.

Why does a 4* kid with that high of a national ranking and blood line like he has only have one offer? Is it because hes possibly going the overseas route instead of college ball? I know hes "RAW" but what gives?

Also props to cyrocksmypants for not giving up on this kid.

Prohm seems to have a different recruiting philosophy than Hoiberg.

Neither has been able to land the very top of the top talent.

It seems that Hoiberg would go for the second tier guys with the well-developed skill set (Morris, Thomas and Niang). Prohm seems to be going for those with raw, athletic potential. Yes my choice of adjectives is kind of a joke but it does seem to be true.
I think it's too early to tell how Prohm is recruiting, but he's done very well while coming in late to the recruiting process. I don't think we can determine what type of recruit Prohm prefers off of such a small sample. It does seem he's targeting our exact needs however and that is all we can ask for.
 
Agreed. All though i know kostas is a potential guy i would be absolutely extatic to get him

ISU staff is clearly putting it out their that we aren't recruiting him anymore. Maybe misdirection (but cant think of a rational reason why) but folks that talk to ISU staff are all singing that song.

My guess is we aren't recruiting him anymore and Evan Flood found out today he was off Marquette's board so he picked ISU by default seeing he had an early offer from us.

Or maybe we are recruiting him and you're just too stubborn to admit it
 
Baagoe can you confirm or deny if we actually are recruiting kostas?
 
Evan Flood usually has his finger on the pulse of Wisconsin High School basketball recruiting. I trust him more than some random poster here. He was the first of the 3 to make that pick this morning.

Things change, again, I hope there might be something to this smoke.

That said Evan still has Charlie Moore going to Iowa.
