Iowa State Transfer/Recruiting Class 2024

[CYDJ]

The 130th - 150th ranked transfer is a big time commit?

I trust all the people who makes these lists a lot more than coaches who choose them and coach them and things. Their jobs are more important and they are always accurate in their ability to rate players' capabilities in a vacuum.

We need more 5*s dammit!

I’m glad my wife didn’t look into the single people rankings 14 years ago!

I would have never made any lists. I was safe!

Also before she knew about the WWW. So, I have that goin' for me too.

Jesus, Dishon Is a big time commit. I have it on good authority that a certain former coach couldn’t believe we got him

When can he sign though? Nowadays nothing is for sure until they sign.

Tell me where Omaha was ranked and if you considered him a big time commit. I’ll trust the coaches over a recruiting websites ranking

Exactly! the best offensive year under TJ we are a below average P5 offensive team.

What's considered average?

This past season it improved immensely while the defense remained the same.

That's really good from an overall program standpoint.

Big time in the context of our returning roster and needs, for sure.

The same rankings that had Tyrese Hunter ranked as the #1 transfer a couple years ago???

Feel like he screwed up his career by leaving isu

Improvement is not enough!!! Top 2 in the Big 12 is not enough, keeping all the most important components of a sweet 16 team is not enough, picking up what look to be nice hole fillers is not enough, having highly regarded freshmen coming in is not enough, not having every "best player available" when you are only one of 30 or 40 pretty good options with money to spend is simply not enough, ESPECIALLY when transfer season isn't even over. What in the hell are we even doing here?

TJ needs to get off his butt and do SOMETHING. NOW!!!







Not a comment on Madguy's post. Just a pile on.

Is it too much to ask for ISU to be elite in every aspect of the game?

Same goes for football. If Marvin Harrison Jr takes a bubble or slip screen 70 yards by out running everyone including his own blockers, why not ISU!??

The same rankings that had Big 12 1st teamer Hunter Dickinson as #1 last year. Must not be that bad.

You're maybe proving the point since KU didn't have a typical season.

It's not always about ranking as it is about fit.

I think Dishon signed yesterday

This is probably the most hyped Iowa State team in history for next season.

I don't see why Watson can't play the 4 quite a bit. He's long enough and athletic enough to play taller than he is. He has a knack for rebounding. His body transformed a lot from year one to year 2. There's no reason to think that won't continue. His 3-point shot looks pretty good (small sample size problems of course) but he does need to develop some sort of inside game.

He’s fine physically playing the four. There will be some guys that are size mismatches, but so be it.

Like this season, I think that’s where his minutes will come. Well, I guess I could see defensively Milan guarding a 4 and Watson guarding a wing depending on matchup.

People do need to chill about this off-season. ISU is a non-starter for a lot of the betters guys because ISUs needs are limited and specific. If you need the ball in your hands a lot, ISU is not a good choice.

Ya I'm a big fan of Curt. Such a perfect glue guy but so much more.

In the last 7-8 games he was our best player. The way he progressed towards the end of the season was remarkable.

It was great to see him live up to the offseason hype. Once he adjusted to the league he was money.

CJones actually played well all season. He handled the ball and defended great. The one thing he wasn't doing well until that Lipsey sat out was make shots. Once he settled in and got his confidence back, he became the go-to scorer.
