Let's go. 6'9 Kid from Germany. Already 20 years old and has played on some good German teams.

That looks like a redhead Georgios Tsalmpouris.

Well that's interesting.

Well that's interesting.

We lose a lot this year. The more bodies, the better.

He seems more solid. Tsalmpouris was all of 7'0" and about 190 soaking wet

We lose Chatfield and Gilbert for sure. We most likely lose Curtis Jones. And... that's it.

We have Jamrion Batemon, Killyan Toure, Xzavion Mitchell and Macari Moore coming in. Plus now Pleta.

We above the scholarship limit? Tj must expect some early departures if so.

We are allowed more scholarships. So basically we can take a flyer . Not to mention foreign players don’t get NIL their first year until they get a green card to work. I think that’s the rule

No, they added 2 scholarships to MBB this year

Edit: the ncaa allows for 2 more scholarships. That doesn't mean we're going to use them

Don’t we lose Jackson as well? Im also assuming Lipsey explores the draft as I always assume the worst in such things.

No. Jackson and Jefferson both have another year. I can't see Lipsey being drafted at this point.

Same. Lipsey is a great college point guard, but I’d expect him to be an UFA if he decided to go after this year unless something really changes.

OK. I saw R-Sr and assumed that meant he was out of eligibility. These transfer guys make this so confusing.

I agree on Lipsey. I think among the players on our current roster, only Milan really has a shot at being drafted. And unless he ends the season on an absolute heater and a deep ncaa run, it will be next year at the earliest that he would declare imo.

Keshon, CuJo, and Tamin will all get G league spots when the time comes, should they pursue it. But can't imagine any of them being more than 2 way guys.

That is 100 percent not true on the NIL front. And Iowa State is not planning on increasing scholarships. Any increase in a men’s scholarship requires an increase on a women’s scholarship. Iowa State needs as much funding as possible to help with revenue sharing and won’t be increasing scholarships as those cost money.

I'm not a believer Watson will be returning. Hope I'm wrong!

Looks like a grown-up Macaulay Culkin.
