Don't disagree about that lineup. But not sure if the new transfer rule will make it easier for HS players who signed LOI to get out of their commitment. Or if Nebraska would be able to prohibit McGowens or Breidenbach from transferring to ISU.
That said, McGowens is going to Nebraska to play with his older brother who transferred to Neb from Pitt. Sure both could come to ISU, but they could just as easily go somewhere else.
That said, Fred is not coming back to ISU. It is just wild message board chatter.
I would have to assume Nebraska would let them out if they requested it -- no point in being spiteful at that juncture, and it might be used against you in recruiting later on. We released Darien Williams without much of a fuss to St. John's when he wanted out after Fred left, after all. Why try to force a guy who doesn't want to be there anymore?
Assuming those two are in it for Fred...
Trey McGowens could come, too, with the new transfer rules. He is a fine player (at least as good as the other guards we have on the roster except Bolton), and I would not doubt we'd have the space for him.
Yes, they could just go be a package deal somewhere else, but I'm assuming they are on Team Fred given they went to ******* Nebraska in the first place. No other reason to go there outside of those dreamy blue eyes.
Is this rank message board speculation at its worst? Sure is!
That's what makes it fun.
