****Official Class of 2018 Recruiting Thread****

Okay, I'm starting to get sold on Green
I hadn't been either (just seemed to lack quickness/explosion and seemed like pedestrian skills from the early film I saw).
But performances like this are meaningful and as Georges taught us - you don't have to be super quick or explosive to be really effin good at basketball.
Everyone that wasn't high on Green evidently only ever saw film from his freshman year or something. I've wanted this kid just as bad if not more than Race Thompson for a while.
Everyone who was not high on Green thought he was a Hawkeye or UNI future player. Plus he's white and from Iowa. However his athleticism and shooting stroke got better when he visited us for the third time.
Yeah same here. He can ball. Whomever he plays for, the other teams he plays will hate him for four years ala forte, brooks Thompson, Jake Sullivan, Scotty christipherson and every other white guy who shoots three point daggers
I agree 100%. It also doesn't sound like there's much pressure from his dad to go to UNI.
And 7-of-7 at the line.
What's all this "white" chatter, what does race matter? We're talking about individuals with individual skills and talents. It just gets so old. . . .

Alex Halsted caught caught up with Lathon after this weekends visit.
Sounds promising and mentions that he may not take all five official visits and possibly decide in late June.

If they could get Lathon and Green to start off the class that would be huge.
I see Horton-Tucker is visiting some schools and ISU wasn't one that was listed. Wonder if the staff is still recruiting him.
I really like one of their latest offers DeMuth but it will be hard to get him out of the south I think but would fit really well into the offense as a versatile 4 man.

Flip side of that is I've heard some bigger name programs are interested in him. This has all been hearsay but it has been the same schools consistently mentioned to me since the fall (Gonzaga & Virginia). Though I have never seen them linked to Green from a credible recruiting source so take it for what it's worth.
People seem to think ISU is still a long shot but his visit pattern seems to point to ISU as one of, if not the leader if Green decides to leave UNI. Still conflicted on what to think on his recruitment but I'm in the camp that doesn't believe he will choose UNI.
The only reason people are bringing up Gonzaga and Virginia, through hearsay, is because he is a very good, white recruit and Virginia and Gonzaga have been linked with those types of players in the past. Kinda like how every white wide-receiver coming out of college gets compared to Wes Welker or Eric Decker.
We just grabbed a CB pick for Tyler Harris. Saw this on his twitter page. Dude is smooth.
