I get excited about big time recruits. Then when we get an alright recruit I talk myself into liking them. Big difference. For the record Money and Bo are both 4 star guys. That is why we get excited. I would not get excited about a guy Ben Brust. He is being recruited by Missouri Valley schools. Now on the other hand if we got Mr. Brust I could probably talk myself into liking him. I just would not get excited about us recruiting someone like this.
Hawk basketball fans are getting desperate

Another Rising Stars Gold teammate who figures to be off the board at any time during the July evaluation period is 6'2 shooting guard Ben Brust from Mundelein High School in Mundelein, IL. Brust is considering Iowa, Butler, Northwestern, Stanford and Virginia.
Pretty weak schools to be considering...

Pot --> kettle
(ISU football in this case)
And for the record, Iowa MBB will be lucky to win 10 games next season.
Brust heads list of players ready to rise - City/Suburban Hoops Report
Chicago Hoops has him ranked as the 5th best player in Illinois for 2010. They had Colvin ranked as 3rd I believe.
I'm not sure it's possible to play high school ball at his level in Illinois and average 30pts per game being slow and unathletic. He also scores like that in AAU playing some of the best competition in the country.
He has offers from Iowa, NU, Davidson, Butler and will be offered by Virginia, Notre Dame, possibly Marquette and possibly Minnesota before th Summer is over.

Most of us have said we'd be lucky to win 6, and most place us at around 4-5. I fail to see the comparison.
Not the same. In football, we return nearly every starter on both sides of the ball. Iowa lost ~80% of their scoring last year in basketball. How is that even close?
Not true at all. The kid will go to a big time D1 school. Last I checked Stanford has a pretty good bball program
His blocks look athletic. Nothing else about his game looks athletic. Not very quick with the dribble. But as long as Iowa knows he is a SG and not a PG he could still be OK.
Very awkward shot though. Really sells the follow through. Whatever works
this is the type of stuff mac was recruiting till he figured out what you need to win in the big 12
Pretty much if Ben Brust is getting them excited I feel bad. Although I guess in Iowa's situation it's a good thing right now. So whatever works.
