According to both Travis Hines and Jon Rothstein on twitter, Diallo will unofficially visit ISU this weekend. If this is already being discussed in the huge recruit thread, feel free to delete this.

Edit: Didn't even notice in those tweets that Kassoum Yakwe will also be visiting this weekend. http://sports.yahoo.com/ncaa/basketball/recruiting/player-Kassoum-Yakwe-145660

This man deserves his own thread.

My expectations for Fred have always been sky-high. He keeps exceeding them. I am blown away by this development.

 

[CyArob]

Yes please.

 

[Rhoadhoused]

Just having the #8 prospect visiting is awesome.

Big name teams to compete with. If we get Vaughn I think it could even help with recruiting this kid and more in the future

 

[ianoconnor]

Want.

Recruits like this don't even sniff schools like Iowa State unless Fred Hoiberg is your coach.

 

[SoMinnclone]

Yes, and Kassoum Yakwe is #21 in the class of 2016 for ESPN rankings. Rivals has on 2016 rankings yet. Both are excellent players.

 

[CycloneErik]

I'm blown away that he's paying for an unofficial visit.

This kid is big time. Really exciting that he is coming for an unofficial!

Wow, big time recruits!

 

[kucyclone]

According to this, his birthday is tomorrow. Show him the love, folks.

 

[BuffettClone]

Wow, he's listed as 6'8" and has a wingspan of 7'3"...long reach

So after Vaughn commits do we have to switch to diallo avatars?

My sentiments exactly!

 

[helechopper]

I can't say enough about what a great job Fred is doing on the recruiting scene. He's a tenaciously clever player-getter.

Let's get started on the road to 2,000 posts.

Yes!

I don't know much about his game. Is he more of a traditional big man, or is he a more versatile player like Niang?
