AJ Green Leaves the Portal - Staying in Draft

[cyclones12321]

Please be true, this will take alot of sting out of the TH fiasco.

Much needed

My sources are telling me that we have one assistant who has been frequenting AJ's family home the last 13 months. Promising if true

My source said NCAA may look into the situation since our assistant had been paying AJs cell phone bill the last 5 years. Could be in for compliance issues .

I'd be more than surprised if it wasn't one of those two things.

Surprise @1UNI2ISU

If we get Green and Vander Plas, it would definitely take the sting off of surprisingly losing Hunter. This is only 11 scholarship players too; there would still be 1-2 more spots to fill, whether that's Gabe returning for a 5th year or adding Basile, Abogidi from Wazzu, Souley Boum from UTEP, or another name not yet in the portal.

Even without AJ Green. Vastly improving the 4-5 spots goes a long way

Efe Abogidi just cut his list and we are not on it FYI

True, and besides that...reporter Bain said from the 'get-go' that he would test the waters and maybe there's the possiblility of a transfer but it wouldn't be ISU. I'm not hanging my hat on just one source, but I'm also not expecting him here at all.....so at least I'll be the happiest surprised fan if he does.

Maybe at the time it was "not ISU" that was a real thing Bain was hearing. But there's been a bit of a development that seems logical that it changed that.

thats Premium content. Banhammer.

"We landed on the moon" is information that is out everywhere and you are a fool for not know it. You aren't helping your cause trying to denigrate the plebs who don't pay for premium.

Maybe his 'we landed on the moon' reference is that this is already a done deal.

 

[Cyclad]

Could this have anything to do with Hunter leaving?

No

Gabe has to be counted until he's not

 

[allfourcy]

No

Agree. Green isn't a pt. guard anyway, correct. A shooting guard.

Jeff Borzello saying a 'rumor' doesn't mean anything. We've bantered the same rumor for months.

Doubt we get both BVP and Basile.

Williams
Green
Kalscheur
BVP
Basile

That's a nice starting 5. I like Jaz off the bench if it means we can land both as his defensive intensity and ability to play 4 or small ball 5 is NICE

Yeah I feel like it's less about rumors and more about stating the obvious. His dad coaches here

 

[PantherCyclone]

I’m giving my money to NIL deals. Getting players is more important to me than finding out ten minutes earlier than everyone else that we got that player

I think it would be naive to think that funding and supporting CF wouldn't lead to NIL deals for athletes in a way that also has its own perqs for the users.

I dont know why, but for me, I feel better about giving indirectly to NIL than directly to the players. It feels closer to what the NIL court ruling was supposed to accomplish rather than pay for play withoug any regulation. I may be in the minority here, however.

 

[Cyclad]

Why is everyone so sure we will get him? I get that his dad is on staff, but what if he gets offered 350k from some team? Will we offer NIL?

If money matters, we lose.
I have posted multiple times for months - my sources say Green to ISU. I think it has been likely, not certain, for a long time. Fingers crossed.

LMAO I can hear this GIF

 

[dirtyninety]

Remember when Rhoads got busted by the NCAA because some entry level staffer was calling recruits after nappy time or whatever??....good times.

 

[Shawker]

You guys have nothing to worry about. It's a done deal. Get the champagne ready to pop.
