His Grandfather played for the Hawks and he is from Eastern Iowa. No chance in H he comes to Iowa State. There is a reason why we've invested zero time trying to recruit him. Let Fran keep stockpiling the lifelong Hawk fans. I'd rather pull recruits from Oak Hill, Simeon, Wisconsin and Michigan...

Damn, how many descendants of ex-hawks are there?

I thought I read somewhere that he grew up on the Illinois side of QC and moved to Bettendorf in the last 3-4 years. If that is the case, not necessarily a lifetime Hawk (but he still could be).

FFS the hawks get recruits gift wrapped, and still can beat us in recruiting or on the court.

I don't know why any good PG prospect would choose to go to Iowa when there are other options. I can understand if he went to Wisconsin or Marquette, but it would be a shame for his development to go to Iowa.

Geez, another one? Is there any young Cyclones fans in this state that are good at basketball?

Yep sorry to break the news. I guess I thought it was widely known why he was a heavy Hawk lean. His Grandfather was a pretty good player for them from what I have heard. If Cook transfers and the bottom falls out of that program who knows.

Iowa States program has been in limbo so many times when we had a chance to land program changing recruits who grew up Cyclone fans. Collison, Hinrich, Barnes, McDermott. Some luck has to fall back our way at some point. That Hoiberg guy worked out okay I suppose....
