Aimaq would solve our big man issues. Not sure if we are even going to be in the mix for him, but I hope Otz can work his magic. Considering our delta in win changes was +20 from last year and a Sweet 16 birth this year, that is a good pitch. Every big name school will be going after him, so not getting my hopes up. Delaire and Gainey are next on the list of what I'd like.

Basile reminds me of Ryan Hawkins from Creighton. A couple inches taller and more of a stretch 5 than a versatile 4 like Hawkins. But Basile certainly can handle it a little as well as step out and shoot.



Basile went 20-42 (47.6%) from three as a Sophomore. This year he was 39-137 (28.5%) as a Junior. Moral of the story, he's a legit threat from outside but he should not be leading a team in three point attempts. His usage got a little high everywhere this past year. Offensive rating as a junior was 124.6. For reference, Jaz is our current team's highest at 118.8.

EvanMiya.com has transfer rankings that can be filtered by HS recruiting rank, transfer status, class, position, offensive role, possessions played, etc.

Grant Basile currently ranks 8th overall. He's a 4 star transfer per the ranking system.


Having Blake Hinson as a 4 star doesn't exactly give me confidence in his ranking system

Gonzaga, and Kentucky have offered him. TJ is a hell of a recruiter but I'm gonna say we don't have much a chance.

How do you know that? We have not even seen him play for Iowa State. Can't tell if he was playing the defense the Ole Miss coach wanted.
Can't, won't really doesn't matter. It's what he showed in practice and bolted when he was informed he wouldn't be in the rotation because if it.

Is this what was speculated about Javon Johnson bolting, too?
