RECRUITING: Elijah Brown speaks out about the factors that will lead to his college decision
- Thread starter JStanz51
- Start date
If goclones69 actually knows something about Juiston to DePaul then I really don't care what happens with Brown. Not that I don't want him, or think he could help us, but I need to go into nut cup mode and work on patience until 2018/19 instead. Every recruit/transfer/juco has their own story, but please don't try to change my mind as to how hard it still is to recruit to Ames, Iowa or ISU. They don't love it like we do. Wasn't any easier for Fred, either.

@cyrocksmypants give us the truth here, please. What say your sources?
I think the DePaul speculation might be a reaction to a Tweet that was juiston in a DePaul uniform. He might go there but I wouldn't over think that one tweet.
It's recruiting- knowing your "woe is us" the cup should have already been on.
Do you not understand the field always has better odds? A kid with a KU offer is likely down to ISU, DePaul, RI, and UNLV. Another KU target just committed to NU. Look back over the past 20+ years of ISU basketball. The worst stretch wasn't due to difficulty in getting talent here and arguably had more NBA talent than ever.
If you consider one's a**hole a source, I've got a couple doozies for you too.
Hey man i'm just passing along what my guy in the know told me. I probably should stop sharing these because I just get ridiculed for supposedly throwing random crap out there
I am hearing Brown is a long shot as well. If ISU does get him, it will be one masterful sales job by Prohm.
Brown or Alstork would still help a lot regardless.
We would adjust and play a little smaller.
And pray our young guys are good enough to contribute meaningful time.
Nah, I appreciate you passing what you know along. Your comments just seemed inconsistent, but I understand recruiting is weird.
Assuming it's DePaul for Juiston, I wonder what contingencies the staff has been recruiting. Thornton signed with Memphis yesterday.
We will see in the next few days how right you were, it seems.
Given that you have pretty much "put on the DePaul cap" for Juiston.
Stick around. If you are right, you will have a ton of credibility.
and that is all you need to say, that you had heard that from someone in the know. Thank you. No need to volunteer sources.
I don't give much consideration to the ******** of others. I'll leave that to you.
My sources are telling me that we are going to get all the recruits that I want. Unfortunately for you guys, the list of recruits I want remains top secret.
It was actually really surprising for me to see what the Ducks still have left considering they lost so much. Their returning pieces are similar to us with a similar recruiting class.
