I will be shocked if more guys in Rocks recruiting situation do go mid major. You’ve got your top 30 or so guys who can go contribute in this landscape. After that, with the portal it’s going to be hard to get time. Go the mid-major route, get some early PT and then transfer up and get paid.Honestly, losing Rock feels pretty bad. He came here young, and we put in the early development years with him, and now it's on to showcase what he has learned. I get it, the new reality.
TJ is going all in on trimming down the roster. There are some new players coming our way.It's on3

Especially the 2nd half of the BYU game in KC. Had 2 big blocks to end the half and then didn't see the floor in the 2nd half. Makes no sense.Never understood why Watson never saw the floor when spot minutes were available due to team injuries. Thought he was a good athletic defensive player.
Have to think he might have had a better chance sticking in another system. You'd have to be a pretty unique 7 footer to be asked to guard on the perimeterI will be shocked if more guys in Rocks recruiting situation do go mid major.

I believe Cade Kelderman is unrelated to the Kelderman Manufacturing folks. Not saying his parents aren't wealthy (maybe they are, I don't know) but it's not the same people.Didn’t have rich parents?
Positional arguments aside, he spent yesterday on the bench watching Kelderman play.
Yeah...I do trust in TJ and company for the most part, but something is up with our HS recruiting in that these Top 100 players we have brought it (and a Top 10 in Omaha) aren't seeing the floor. And I know that's part of the new college basketball game and all, but I'm old enough to remember the days when we would get really excited as a fanbase when these kinds of guys were signed. Now they sit on the bench (and it's worthy of legitimate debate on whether they should be sitting on the bench as much as they do or not; IMO we played our starters more than we needed to when we were up by close to 30 points against the low major "buy" teams in our non-conference schedule).
I thought Rock was a guy who could have stepped right into Chatfield role. Guess not.
You have got to be kidding me
Based on what?
Shame he couldn't play over a 5'7 walk on. Maybe he didn't high five hard enough in practice.Positional arguments aside, he spent yesterday on the bench watching Kelderman play.
That I can see. Probably S. Dakota State?Rock just announced
AuburnThat I can see. Probably S. Dakota State?
There’s a subset of IsU fan that thinks we have the second coming of Taurean Prince sitting there not getting minutes.
Tyrese HunterIt’s insanity. Has there been a single transfer out under TJ that has done anything, let alone meet the expectations of the fanbase, after moving on? Maybe there has been, I just can’t think of anyone.
Jelani Hamilton was a useful player at Georgia state this yearIt’s insanity. Has there been a single transfer out under TJ that has done anything, let alone meet the expectations of the fanbase, after moving on? Maybe there has been, I just can’t think of anyone.
