This guy is the 3rd best player on a horrendous team (8-24). Surely there is better options out there
RECRUITING: A transfer to keep en eye on
- Thread starter ChrisMWilliams
- Start date
We need a 4/5 that can put a layup in when Monte passes him the ball, in that regard this guy is more than serviceable. The days of getting a worldbeater through the transfer market are over for ISU.
Ok - so your argument is that he is not good enough. Can't argue with that, because I don't know. It is just different than your original beef.
Too be fair, our staff signed Ernst and Carter so it isn't like our staff wanting them means they are sure fire Big 12 players, might just mean it is the best they can do.
He was their second best player behind Johnson. Mussini is awful. I'm guessing the staff is just keeping their options open but his athleticism intrigues me. Livingston is my top want but Davis, Jones and Dembele would all fill the need and I don't really have a preference which one it is if it's not Livingston.
Yeah there are better options out there and I'm sure we've inquired about all of them.
Do you struggle with everyday logic? Do you not understand that every freshman doesn't contribute right away, especially big men?
Your thought process is embarassing.
Yes. I know it's not in person. But he doesn't look all that tall. Or like the banger everyone is hoping.

He's taller than everyone else we're bringing in so you're saying a 6'7 player can be a bigger impact for us than a 6'8 guy?
The way the staff is recruiting, they may feel confident in the abilities of Ernst and Carter. Just spitballing here.
There's a huge difference from a grad transfer big and a sophomore big who barely played in the non con last year.
We just need a grad transfer or JUCO big for next season. I don't care if he's 6'7 or 6'9, we just need the best available.
