WVU continues to leak talent ...

[Halincandenza]

I thought WVU had a pretty highly touted big man recruit coming in. Could be wrong about that

Yeah, McDAA to pair with Culver

 

[GTO]

This is a completely false narrative. I didn't bring it up in this thread, you did. Nor have I in any others but to say he's talented and we haven't seen the best yet. I've never ever said Xavier was a sure lock/headed to the NBA. That's all straw man argumentation from ISU fans here trying to minimize his talents.

And as for Iwundu, this board went ballistic when I said he'd be drafted. Some of you have short memories.

Just the first one I found right off the bat. Don't have the time right now to look for more, but can, if you need me to.

Sims for sure and Culver I sort of remember as an athletic guy at TxT but not in X's class. Sneed is going to be a beast his junior year. Good kid too. Business major.

 

[Halincandenza]

Business major..? What does that have to do with being a good kid?

This is a completely false narrative. I didn't bring it up in this thread, you did. Nor have I in any others but to say he's talented and we haven't seen the best yet. I've never ever said Xavier was a sure lock/headed to the NBA. That's all straw man argumentation from ISU fans here trying to minimize his talents.

And as for Iwundu, this board went ballistic when I said he'd be drafted. Some of you have short memories.

Given Iwundu's ability to guard (well) multiple positions, I always thought he had a shot at the NBA. He was terrific at KSU. Guys with some size who have the speed to contest 3's are important to have in the NBA. I like Sneed as a player but in the games I've watched, he hasn't seemed to be at that same level as Iwundu (admittedly, I don't have enough data to be conclusive). Body types go a long way to getting NBA scouts' attention.

 

[DurangoCy]

@surly, can you update ISU to show Haliburton as a possible NBA Draft entrant. He's being listed on some big boards and Prohm things he's got a future in the league.

TIA

 

[Halincandenza]

This is a lie.

https://cyclonefanatic.com/forum/th...oard-posted-this-nba-draft-list.229224/page-4

One guy says "I wouldn't be surprised if he's not drafted".

Oh the disrespect!

 

[CloniesForLife]

Didn't Prohm say similar things about NWB? Coaches say that stuff all the time.

Again, Sneed is a nice 2nd, maybe 3rd guy to have.

If he is your go-to guy, your team probably isn’t that good.

Yeah, but they also have Diarrhea and Myween.

 

[GTO]

Yeah, but they also have Diarrhea and Myween.

Not good when have the Diarrhea and the Sneez.

 

[Cy$]

I wund who?

 

[GTO]

I wund who?

MyWeen.

 

[MartinCy]

Yeah, but they also have Diarrhea and Myween.

Mawien is bad

 

[surly]

Sneed will have a fine senior year if he stays at State. Last year at this time, I told you guys Wade would be preseason POY and State would challenge for the title. The reactions were similar at the time. It's why I love this site. Being predictable is a good characteristic of Iowans.

 

[Acylum]

Yeah, but they also have Diarrhea and Myween.

If my weenie ever has diarrhea just kill me.

 

[GTO]

Just the first one I found right off the bat. Don't have the time right now to look for more, but can, if you need me to.

Sims for sure and Culver I sort of remember as an athletic guy at TxT but not in X's class. Sneed is going to be a beast his junior year. Good kid too. Business major.

Bump for @surly

 

[surly]

Sneed had a very solid year behind three seniors. Honorable mention all-conference. Academic all-conference. Won a B12 championship. I'm not sure what the point is here? Did I miss where I said he was headed to the NBA?

 

[FinalFourCy]

The point is it’s hard to take you seriously when you post “Culver I sort of remember as an athletic guy at TxT but not in X's class.”

 

[surly]

Culver had a great year and will do well in pro ball, I suppose. Kids like him used to stay in the college game a while longer.
