RECRUITING: Wheeler impressed by Iowa State visit, eyes May 6 decision

Hope none of our recruits do it. However, I want to see some kids just say "I thought the school would be much better than it was", "The coach was kind of a jerk to me and the team underachieved last season, so it's a big no from that school". Just think it would be funny.
Glad Wheeler had a good visit. Now hopefully we can sign him up.

Is this quote from his dad or Sahvir:
“Obviously, a world-class guy. He’s a great, great guy. He cares about his family. He’s genuine. He cares about his players. He’s a great guy, a guy you want to be your coach,” Wheeler said. “If you’re looking to hire a coach, you look at Coach Prohm. You look at his core values, the way he runs the program, how his players think of him. Coach Prohm extended a couple of quotes about what his previous point guards and his previous players have said about him, all great things. You can’t ask for a better coach.”
That, by the way, was about as glowing of a review as you could hope as a fan.

It sounds like we're about 50/50 on him, between Georgia and ISU. He'd be a great addition this late in the game.
That is from Sahvir. I haven't talked to his dad. His voice really lit up when I asked him about Prohm. Could tell they've really created a good bond already.
Seems like a really well spoken kid. I'm liking the guys Prohm is in on, hopefully they can land any combination of them.
I'm sure the Georgia assistant will be a big factor, but so is Prohm being under Kennedy at one point too. I'd almost lean ISU.
He certainly walked away from the visit very high on the program. Gut feeling I'd say he ends up in Ames but I guess you never truly know in recruiting until it is a done deal.
My bet would be yes. His link to Georgia was a TAMU assistant moved there. Now that assistant is the head coach at Kennesaw State. Our link is Prohm and Kennedy.
(These are my thoughts and I have no sources. I am using public media info.)
Don't really have a point to make here but more of a side note... That assistant has had his name all over the FBI investigation today.
I really hope this guy ends up a Cyclone. He just seems to get it.
As I said a few days ago, don't put anything past Tom Crean. He's a snake. This should be a no brainer for this kid but nothing would surprise me. No offense to snakes.
I might not have a good understanding of how much $11,000 cash is but those had to have been some pretty big shoes.
I bet you could fit 110 one hundred dollar bills in a pair of basketball shoes without too much trouble.
Accepting donations if anyone wants to test this theory with my size 16s. For science, obviously.
