Yeah IDK. I've heard about this guy; didn't realize that ISU is targeting him.
Not to brag, but when I look at the talent MN puts out in Basketball compared to Iowa, it's ridic.
At the same time you've got to be careful. When I was 14, I was 6'2 and wore size 14 shoes.... I am now 25 and am 6'3 and wear size 14 shoes. I had doctors tell me I was going to be 6'7 or so...
The good news is that he's 6'4 and at that height, if you have the skills and hit the weights, you have a chance to be a high impact player.

It honestly doesn't bother me. But we need to be honest (especially in light of the Dykstra situation) that if they aren't developing we'll cut them loose. Nothing wrong with that as I'm all for doing whatever it takes to get talent within the rules.
Coaches with names that sound like "Juan Galloparry", "Willy Giuseppe", and "Melvin Simpson" would just have to start cheating sooner I guess.
Or a lot of time to get bigger, stronger, redevelop lost coordination, and become a super star.....
This happens every day in Houston. We had scouts at EVERY basketball and football game at the middle school I work at and to be honest..... we sucked at basketball.
