Oh crap, I didn't even realize what date it was. I'm Ms. Goodie-two-shoes and have never smoked a thing in my life.

Im not a smoker either. Just facebook feed filled up with the same 04-20 jokes as last year.

Where does Wesley Johnson fit into this discussion? Wasn't he a highlight touted recruit out of high school?

Thanks. I didn't follow ISU MBB closely back then, but assumed he was a bigger deal coming in than he was.

Yeah, he was a definite diamond in the rough. Came in my sophomore year with no other major offers. McDermott and TJ found some good guys.

Just couldn't do anything with them.

McD could and can recruit talent that wasn't the issue. Just couldn't keep them on campus long enough to get them to build a team.

It was hard to get too exited about Brackins because he was the third highest PF in the big 12 in his class, IIRC Durant and Griffin were in his class. Big 12 is nuts
Sign me up for the 3rd highest big 12 PF every year.

2016: Cam Lard

They had no seniors right? Did they sign anyone? With everyone back next year, they had almost no PT to offer either way.
Plus that run happened after almost all of the 2018 recruiting had taken place. Any recruiting impact that run will have will likely be with the 2019 class the most.
