People say Niang as a comp, which I see it. But I see a lot of Darrien Williams (Texas Tech)
in his game.
****Official Class Of 2025 Recruiting Thread****
- Thread starter LLCoolCY
- Start date
in his game.
Williams is a career 39% 3P shooter
Mitchell is going to tough to keep off the court if he improves to that level
Fizer wasn’t a tweener in college. So you’re saying when guys move up, they can become ineffective tweeners
Odd post if you’re trying to be bullish Mitchell
Looks like Batemon won the division 3 state title tonight. 16 pts, 4 reb, 1 ast
As successful as we were playing small ball this year I wonder if Jefferson might get the bulk of his minutes as a five leaving Milan with Pleta getting a bunch at the four.
In that era of the NBA he was. He was not quick enough to play the 3 and was undersized height wise by a lot to be an effective 4.
lol, no.
He was listed at 6’8 265 in college. They fudged on his height, but they all do
That’s the epitome of a college power forward in the late 90’s and early 2000s. He was absolutely big enough to play power forward in college
It was short for the NBA
But that’s irrelevant anyway. Fizer had enough to get the job done in college, but didn’t have a position when moving up a level. What is a mismatch at one level, becomes an untenable tweener when up a level
Bringing that up as analogous to Mitchell moving up to ISU is NOT in support of Mitchell doing well in college
Toure definitely seems to be the one who's stock is flying up. I think that athleticism and point of attack defense could get him in the rotation early. We never know until these guys get on campus, but there is a ton of smoke on him being a real dude.
He reminds me of Gilbert with better pull up jumper and midrange game. He even showed step back 3 pointer off the dribble. I am really excited about this this player.
Guys. Please. Let’s not do this.
Sadly...I have reached the point where I don't get all that thrilled or excited by HS recruits! Don't get me wrong...they can form a very important part of a recruiting class or philosophy. It is just that it seems every HS kid that commits to ISU gets so much praise and hype on here...I feel like it is a letdown when they can't get on the court as a freshman...or in many cases they hardly get on the Hilton court ever! I don't know but I suppose this occurs with fanbases of other schools as well. I will read about the names we chase and a little bit about the commits...but I choose to just wait and see rather than get excited about what I read regarding the recruits.
I was just going to post the exact same thing. I used to get all excited and now I just can't.
There's a pill for that.
Cyalis.
No. The hope should be that we get a good transfer that can back up tamin or play with the ball well enough and then beat teams badly enough that he gets some mop up duty minutes. There’s no reason we can’t be more realistic about this.
