    Joshua Jefferson has committed to Iowa State

    Exactly my thought, with Heise getting 2/3 of his minutes backing up Milan (10‐12), plus some at off-guard. I think the biggest question will be the allocation of minutes between Watson, Chatfield and Rock.

    I feel better. A little. Kind of.

    If Jefferson isn't signed, there will be someone else. Also, this isn't about exact replacements, i.e. a new Rob, Ward or King. TJ and the staff will find a player that fits roster needs and culture.

    Tamin Lipsey has minor shoulder procedure

    I assumed he would have shoulder surgery after the season. Good news.

    One and done has taken on a whole new meaning. Maybe mid-majors will have top recruiting classes and have great seasons, only to lose early in the tournament to older, veteran teams from P5 (or is it 4?) teams. Reversal of fate.

    Iowa State Transfer/Recruiting Class 2024

    Milan definitely hit a wall. Big12 bball is a grind anf very few 18 year olds are strong enough to perform at as high a level as he did for the whole season, playing his mpg. He will be stronger and more able, physically and mentally, next year.

    Iowa State Transfer/Recruiting Class 2024

    CJones actually played well all season. He handled the ball and defended great. The one thing he wasn't doing well until that Lipsey sat out was make shots. Once he settled in and got his confidence back, he became the go-to scorer.

    Xzavion Mitchell commits

    Tyrese influence obviously helped. Another example of how getting guys to the NBA has longterm benefits.

    J'Vonne Hadley (Curtis Jones' cousin) to have zoom meetings with Iowa State & MSU this week

    So you're sayin there's still a chance? 437 posts, most of the last 150 of which have no connection to Hadley. Easy to lose track of who "he" is.

    J'Vonne Hadley (Curtis Jones' cousin) to have zoom meetings with Iowa State & MSU this week

    All these shiny objects. I'm happy to stick with the familiar. Watson may not have Hadley's skill set, but he knows the system and will work hard in the off-season to add more offense to his game.

    TJ has done great in his first 3 years, in terms of chemistry. I hope it continues this year, but it's a bit different situation. 4 big minutes players are already in place, plus Watson, who I think we all hope makes a jump and forces himself to be played. Now bring in 5 transfers (if Kyle and...

    Time for a Real Discussion About Caitlin Clark

    I have serious doubts that any of this is accurate, especially the last sentence. Bigger picture, a person can be a fan of high level sports. A repeat of the national championship game, with 2 of the biggest stars in the sport, for a spot in the final 4, can be exciting to a fan of the sport...

    Some have said take both. I suppose the coaching staff would, but would both want to? One says yes. The other looks elsewhere?

    Kayden Proctor discussion

    So why did Proctor leave Alabama? Seems weird he'd go back. Georgia? Clemson? Elsewhere?
