Ray Kasongo transferring

[srjclone]

I think there is a player we haven't heard of yet, that Iowa State is waiting out for. Prohm's comments in Halsted's most recent podcast were somewhat cryptic, and it even made the hosts' question if there was more than what they had heard there.

Either that, or we are going to win an NCAA appeal and land Mikyle McIntosh

Jacobson wouldn't be the worst addition from an Iowa St perspective, but do you think Jacobson would like it?

He's a sit out, so no playing next year, then in 18-19 he's probably behind Solo and Lard that we know now, and hopefully Race as well. Plus, no matter what, any guy Prohm brings in for the front court, is probably automatically ahead of Jacobson.

If he's ok with that, great bring him on. He provides Iowa St a pretty nice safety blanket in the front court.

I'm not sure why it would automatically make him behind Lard, Young, or any recruit brought in since we've only seen one of them play. I wasn't a fan of bringing Jacobson in when we had 4 schollies available, but with a fifth opening up he's an upgrade over Kasongo.

Does that mean Kasongo will have to sit another year somewhere else and then only have one year left to play?

Mark me down as one of those "Kasongo just needs to be given a chance" guys.

Damnit, Ray. Now I will go eat crow.

I'm not sure how this works either I was going to ask as well.

Om nom nom.

 

[inCyteful]

Wow it's like he wasn't here. He literally just wasted a year for nothing.

Sure glad I never wasted a year at a college for nothing.......

or two

or three

Ray, we hardly knew ye.

I thought you didn't have to if you transferred down a level...

I do don't think it is a for sure thing he is behind Lard bc we know very little about how good Lard will be and Race isn't even signed and don't think he is an immediate starter type recruit.

At some point Ray has to look in the mirror and realize maybe it's not the program that's the problem.

2017-18 TBD
2016-17 ISU
2015-16 Tennessee
2014-15 JUCO
2013-14 Prep school
2012-13 HS
2011-12 different HS

Maybe this move is exactly that.

He probably read CF and decided that we don't like him and don't think he knows how to basketball and said FU and left!

Least surprising news of the Spring. Expect there to a talent upgrade by May 30th.

Id take the over on that in a heart beat

 

[dmdom]

Interesting. Can anybody speculate what happened?

Heard he was pissed that Prohm couldn't fill in the blank "Pork________".

 

[Snyder21]

No matter what Prohm elects to do with the extra scholly, this is a win for IA State

Sword?

Pistols?

I would be good with Jacobson. Lard, Solo, and Jacobson would make a good post rotation for the future. This would still allow us to sign a highly skilled 3/4 guy for 2018.

Two jacobsons?
