Agree. He already knows the system and the the other players, and can build on where he left off this season.
2025 Transfer Options

Did Watson find a new team yet? Better get him on the phone and back in Ames if this all they plan on doing in the portal.
We have 3 very good players but the roster seems extremely thin now, especially if any injuries pop up. Hopefully at least 1 or 2 of the freshman are ready. If they end up being Omaha or Nojus level and not very good then we are in trouble depth wise.

Probably extremely unlikely, but I think this would be a great move.
Watson deserves a chance to play. He is a good player and he won’t see the floor again at Iowa state
Hard to see where all the scoring will come from if the roster is already set. Batemon better be ready to make a big impact offensively.
I would not be really mad if we went back to being a brutal defensive team next season with our lack of scoring
I dont think we'll ever be as bad as the first 2 years becuase Jefferson and Milan are elite offensive players. We also don't really know what kind of scoring Williams/Batemon of Toure will provide yet. We might be pleasantly surprised and one of them emerges as a legit scoring threat.
We have the star players, and we need role players.
I changed it for you. Good for Jefferson Good for us.
Jefferson, Milan, Lipsey, and Heise are worth at least $8m on the open market. The other three transfers we brought in are making around $1.5m combined (I don’t know the exact number, but would be surprised if that’s more than 10% off in either direction). So rolling into next year with a $10m roster plus 4 freshman doesn’t seem too bad in the current environment.
The problem is we lost Gilbert and Jones without replacement unless it's by committee. Then the problem is TJ only usually goes 8 deep leaving who to cover those points?
Milan and Lipsey are better not being #1 options on offense.
Unless we somehow land another shooter/scorer or Williams combined with Bateman can be a big surprise, our best plan for next year will be to slow the tempo and muck it up on defense.
Were better. People always neglect to recognize the growth in players that allow them to take the next step and be the guy. I've seen that growth in Jefferson, Lipsey and Momcilovic. That's a strong start.
This is pretty much spot on. We’re at best 6th or 7th in spending in the conference. In the salary era, that is going to have an impact
We’re a program that will have to fill holes with relatively modest freshmen like Toure and Pleta, and lower profile transfers like Mulder and Williams
His parents didn't want that long drive to his home games.A walk-on guard out of Wisconsin announced last week. Must like winter weather to de-commit from Hawaii Hilo
The Mormon vs Baptist Holy War has begun!
To be fair, Gilbert wasn’t anywhere close to 100% for the majority of the year.
Still an all- conference player. No matter how you cut it, that guy isn't on our team yet. Maybe one of the freshman. But would be very optimistic to say it would be next year
Not to derail the convo but Heupel called his bluff
I love it...
