    ***Official 2024 Transfer Thread***

    I’m guessing most of us are “okay with it” because the last three years in one of the best 3 year runs Iowa State BBall has ever had on the heels of the Steve Prohm debacle and in an NIL era where we are clearly at a financial disadvantage compared to many of our peer institutions.

    ***Official 2024 Transfer Thread***

    It’s a little late to fill AJ’s spot in June with another competent option. And I’m fairly certain the staff didn’t feel like strong-arming AJ and his dad by threatening to take a commit from a plan B. If I remember correctly that squad still got to the NCAA tournament.

    It’s not bracketed that way. Generally fairly random other than probably having UNC and Uconn on opposite sides. I suspect that people are going to be fairly surprised by our pre-season ranking next year. We will be in the Top 7 and likely the Top 5.

    We will have plenty of opportunities for resume wins in Maui and the Big East challenge. Maui teams are Dayton, Colorado. Memphis, UNC, Michigan State, Uconn and Auburn.

    Sounds like Will Wade to the SEC isn’t going to happen. Issues with Sankey and the show cause from his time at LSU.

    Omaha enters the transfer portal (confirmed)

    Or perhaps 21 years old are typically stronger and more developed than 18 year olds. Did the staff bring in Milan, Curtis Jones from Buffalo and Gilbert from UNLV? Did they have a problem identifying talent with Gilbert and Jones because neither one of them were the “top level” of transfer...

    Never felt better after a tournament loss

    Absolutely no where close to that feeling. Prohm consistently underachieved with that squad and we only got to the Sweet 16 by beating Iona and Ark Little-Rock and we were not competitive against Virginia despite playing in Chicago with a great fan advantage. Prohm tan this program straight...

    Tamin is an f’ing warrior. Coleman Hawkins length really disrupted him tonight.

    *** Official #10 Illinois vs #4 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    29-8. Second most wins in school history. People act like we are in Year 10 with T.J. In three years we have three NCAA tournament appearances, 4 wins in the tournament, two Sweet 16’s and a Big 12 conference tournament title. He took over 2-22. This is the healthiest this program has ever been...

    Been watching non Big 12 basketball lately...

    I understand that Painter hasn’t been to a Final 4. But they have been a #4 seed or better in the last 6 NCAA tournaments. They have won 4 Big 10 titles in the last 8 years. They are definitely a Top 10 program over the last decade. I guess that’s my definition of a Blue Blood.

    Been watching non Big 12 basketball lately...

    Exactly. The level of defense played in the Big East, Big 10 and ACC is in a completely different stratosphere then the defense played in the Big 12. Outside of the blue bloods like Duke, UNC, Purdue and Uconn I would absolutely love to play these teams in the NCAA tournament. Could we lose...

    Houston just lost Tugler

    Probably very similar to us losing Hasan Ward for the rest of the year. It certainly is going to have an effect on depth, rotation and their interior defense.

    Because you seemed to imply that because he has a gf at Madison that there is a possibility of him transferring. I was simply explaining why that doesn’t make a lot of sense for him. You also seemed to double down on that thought by saying that he never received an offer out of high school from...
