RECRUITING: Elijah Brown to Oregon

Who do they share the CBI Tourney facilities with?
Abdelmassih? He's the guy that brought Rashad Vaughn, our first 5 star since Fizer and superstar juco Darien Williams to ISU
For how long coolerifyoudid, for how long? Off topic and on to football, Paul Rhoads promised us that positive vibe, and we bought in after those early wins, but then reality struck in even though most of you POSITIVE people were in denial when most of us knew Paul could not recruit big 12 calibre players, let alone develop them. There was a dude who went by the name of duffer44 and he always commented on how Rhoads could not recruit good DL and OL. He was blocked because his criticism was always on point. Of course you and I remember how Sam Richardson always ran for his life all the time during games. Now Matt Campbell is fixing that and watch how we will start winning games. Point is, we want to be positive, but there has to be results to go with it. I hope Prohm succeeds and continue to make us legit, but after how Fred had this program trending upwards, we should not be losing recruits to pathetic UNLV. Infact, Prohm came with a reputation of winning at Murray State and developing those "lottery pick" if you call them that, so he should not struggle to recruit at ISU, we should be pissing on KU's heads by now, but I'm afraid, it won't be happening. We should also not be NIT calibre team at this moment. Every year should be NCAA and ranked in the top 15, only Iowa should be going to NIT, not us and I hope we don't go to NIT next year.
Hang in there, you, too, can get there!
Nobody thinks it can happen to them, but one wrong coach can do that to you.
People need to realize the grad transfer market and transfer market in general, looks nothing like it did 7 years ago. Comparing to what Hoiberg did when he came to what Prohm has to compete against isn't fair. That said, it seems like Prohm is the guy doing the recruiting with the other guys doing legwork. If that's what he wants, fine, but I do think improvements could be made. He has a staff opening for that as well.
Too bad we couldn't lure Mann back to take a spot... he seemed pretty happy and quick to go to Mizzou
Havent checked in here in a while since its the off season but good to see those over analyzing things again and being negative for no reason. Our coach is doing a great job in recruiting and looking forward to the future with the work theyre doing.
Yes, very sad that USA basketball, NBA summer league hang out here, too.
True, at least they can get some actual basketball teams to use the facilities.
Why are you here? Seriously. You aren't going to convince many Iowa State fans that going to UNLV to play basketball makes sense. And why even bother to try?
I'm not telling anyone how to be a fan. I just said why some of us don't choose to focus on the negatives. But, to answer your question: I'm remaining positive for as long as I'm a Cyclone fan. Jim Walden would have crushed my spirit had I been any other way.

No thanks.
I think a lot of fans forget that the majority of Fred's impact transfers were classified as "high risk." CSP would be a fool to induce unnecessary risk into a promising young roster, so he's targeted safer kids but unfortunately a lot of other programs are doing the same thing. Fred had the luxury of playing with house money but the program is past that. IMO, we can have a down year and build with youth and have a more sustainable future just by balancing out the scholarships.
I'm just amazed to hear that Las Vegas is the only place in America that you can play close to professional basketball players and scouts
This is the seconded dumbest thing I've read today. The first was posted by you earlier.
