Can I get a TLDR?

Collin Sexton article talking about recruiting. http://rvls.co/SextonVisits

He mentions Iowa State and Florida but says he's not sure what he's going to do with those two schools.

Has 4 officials basically locked in but doesn't know about the 5th. I guess Iowa State could still technically get one but in all honestly I've moved on to Wigginton.

Interestingly, it does make it sound like his decision by the start of his season isn't necessarily expected like a recent article hinted at. The quote "not sure what I'm going to do with them" (meaning Florida and ISU) is confusing to me. Its like he hasn't ruled us out but hasn't ruled us in either. Hmmm. Guess I've never seen it worded quite that way before. You wonder how both parties have handled his recruitment. Perhaps he wasn't giving us enough feedback so we thought we had to attack elsewhere, yet he's keeping us there just in case. But I agree we'd be very pleased if we could pull in Wigginton. Interesting rest of the month for recruiting to say the least.

@RyanJamesMN: The Iowa State staff will be in tomorrow to see 2020 standout Jalen Suggs of Minnehaha Academy/Grassroots MN

Probably a bit early to make a 2020 thread but this kid is legit. Already has multiple P5 offers. Looks like the next big MN prospect.

We offered.

Isaiah Stokes got 2 Crystal Ball predictions for Tennessee on 247 last night.

Interesting. Maybe this isn't over with Tennessee.

My oldest daughter graduates in 2019. This makes me feel really old.

He's an important cog to this class. I really hope that he makes it next weekend.

I have a feeling Sexton is going to either Alabama or KU. Just a feeling. Didn't sound to impressed with NC State visit. Georgia Tech and Pastner stink. Oklahoma State doesn't run a great offensive system.

 

[rholtgraves]

Stokes will visit and commit

I don't know about the competition he is playing but Suggs looks like Steph Curry in his highlights. Wow.

From watching his highlights, Steph Curry is probably the last player I'd compare him to. He looks great but much more like a Russell Westbrook type player.

This is the video I watched. He has great handles and a quick/deep 3 pt shot... that's what reminded me of Curry.

Agree his release is very simular to curry. Let's get this kid!

He shows off his jumper more in these highlights than the videos I watched of him in AAU. I'd definitely still say he's more of a slasher than a shooter though.

Steph Curry to Iowa State confirmed.

You didn't say to what school so I would agree 100%.

This is potentially obnoxious:
