Congrats on being Frantrum free, Peter Jok. Hopefully those Hawk fans will quit bagging on you at some point.
I have a little More Respect For Peter Jok

Mods can we just close any hok mega threads that the few 100 posts per day hoks won't let die? Season is over, they can come back when school starts at the end of summer.
Normally I'd disagree. But this thread rally became unfortunate fast.
They close threads when they get nasty or 10,000 posts. Whichever comes first.
Yeah this is how it went down. After Fran watched Jok at the open gym, he decided they wanted him, not Hogue or Morgan. That pretty much lines up with what I had heard. I had just forgotten it was Hogue. Good move by Fran.

It's talked about quite a bit in here.
I'm not sure too many fans really believe this or if its more wishful thinking since they still played well when he was hurt.
Jok is a classy kid, or at least was from what I saw from his days at Roosevelt and Valley. I was disappointed with the Moore debacle.
Imagine the depth and experience at guard if Jok was on this season's ISU team — and it was already good anyway. (Assuming all other things equal).
That raises a question: When Jok went to Iowa instead of Iowa State, what other players were in the recruiting mix during the cycle who ended up in Ames? My memory isn't good w/ recruiting history.

Jok is one of those opposing-team players I find it impossible to dislike, even in a "rivalry fun" way, because he's an outstanding player with no distracting negative qualities (off-court or on). Buddy Hield is another example of that (although Hield obviously is higher on the ladder than Jok for full college career).
When we self reported Moore doing what he shouldn't, Fred backed off to avoid any big issues. This occurred when Fred first arrived so things were kinda in flux then.
I was off by a week. Fran went and watched Hogue the week before Jok's visit on a Friday, Fred went Sunday, Fran knew he was out and offered Jok on Monday
OK, I just quickly skimmed through that thread and didnt see it mentioned.
I did see a poster refer to Monte as a combo guard so that made me chuckle.
Nice try.
You should really stop making stuff up to try and make yourself look like you know what you are talking about.
