Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

And that was definitely a miss in recruiting. Iowa state would have loved to have the Jr and Sr year Jok. But we didn't recruit him at the time.
Because ISU couldnt because of some recruiting violations with him.
It wasn't a miss as much as it was us shooting ourselves in the foot
I like Garza as a player as he works hard. I wonder if his dads legal issues had an impact on his recruiting process?
Luka plays some horrible defense if you watch him enough.
JeBev tried to quit in the middle of "that" season?
It cannot be that hard to put up an ORTG <87 in the Big Ten.
I am pretty sure I could do it.
I think Beverly made it to Missouri before he turned around and came back if I remember the story right
Others have already said ISU couldn't. Here is the story...

Goddammit, guys! There's a reason they call him "Lefty"! - Norm Stewart, Missouri Head BB Coach
I'd rather not see Bowen Born lighting us up for 7 3's in a couple years. You know it would happen. It always happens.
I'd like to see Iowa continue to roll out 5'10 Iowa kids at PG that can't defend
Fair. Bowen could be hitting for for EIU, UNI or Iowa v ISU though.
His current offers are only for mid-major programs an unless he has a significant unexpected growth/speed spurt over the summer that is level he's be best suited to succeed. Iowa has taken those risks under in offering those type of guards with lackluster results. Even they haven't offered BB yet though it seems to be trending that way.
The ISU staff has been aware from Born for a couple of years now and has shown minimal interest I have to assume due to their evaluation. The staff believes they will or have better options at guard and or his strengths to match Prohm's system well. Considering their history of prep guard evaluation and success in college I trust it over Fran's.
I'm not saying we should be recruiting him. I'd just rather he go to a mid-major program we don't play every year.
So he got 2 visits to Iowa and is still working on getting a Drake visit. Fran wants him, but Drake isn't sure yet? I know Fran is bad at recruiting, but when did recruits start treating Drake as a better destination than a P5 school?
