Don't know if this has been posted, but Doug is rated 85 by espn.

He is actually the #67 power forward. His grade is 85.

I'd hope we could get him to walk-on. He may eventually be worth a scholarship, but having a free one can only help.

In my opionion, if he comes to ISU it will be on scholarship. I don't think he will walk on here. No inside knowledge, just a feeling.

I'd be extremely amazed, but happy if he walked on at I-State. It say a lot about him and his love for his dad and Iowa State. But despite money probably not being a problem for the McDermott family, I can't see him turning down a free education to play bball at a mid-major somewhere.

As a child of the university, is he eligible to go to school at ISU at a significant discount. I think that employee's children used to be able to go for free.

No, I don't believe so.

Used to, but not anymore. If he walked on he would pay the same as any other student. However if he deserves a scholarship he should get one IMO.

I don't get why there is still speculation on whether or not he will come to ISU. If his dad is still the coach here, he will come to ISU, it's that simple.

Still think he follows in Dad's footsteps and goes to UNI.

Not what I heard. It's just not that simple. I think it's leaning that way though.

Couldn't disagree more. He will only come to ISU if he can earn a scholarship. That means he needs to improve.

Otherwise it's UNI for Doug.

I'm sorry you feel that way, but you are wrong. You can take that to the bank!

I remember reading an article that Doug stated that he did not want to play for his father.

Do you think it will be as a walk-on or scholarship?

No clue and I don't think it really matters.

I am not sure where Doug will end up, but did any of your see where the NCAA has told Greg he can't attend Doug's AAU games during the quiet periods because it will be a recruiting opportunity (not so much Doug as other AAU players).

Total crap by the NCAA, do you think if Roy Williams had a son good enough to play AAU ball the NCAA would tell Roy no AAU games?

I'd like to see this article.

No you don't

No you don't

Maybe he remembers reading that in an article he wrote for a blog he never bothered to upload to the Interwebz.
