Rothstein can make valid points from time to time.
Rothstein (see above) is right on point for ISU anyway. Our top priority was to keep Gilbert, Milan, Tamin, CuJo and Watson. Yeah, we need bigs to go with them, but next year centers around our core from last season. We don't need superstars to fill in the roster, but guys willing to defend and rebound.
He started following a bunch of ISU players on Instagram. Probably a good sign.
I hope so, assuming he hasn't done the same with players on other teams he's visiting. I would be thrilled with his commitment. A 6'8" PF who has a low post game and an outside shot (based on his videos), would be a great weapon.
In one of the videos the commentator said he needed to work on his catch-and-shoot, but in another video, it looked like he had done so.
He started out the season ice cold from three, like 2/26 or something. Shot lower volume but up around 40% in conference play. Also has a crazy good assist rate for a guy his size.
I also like that his steals per game is around 1.5. Means he is either a good on ball defender or plays passing lanes well

Agree re: his passing, I commented on his interior passing in another thread which is similar to our three bigs' passing this season, an overlooked aspect of their game.
Next year is going to be strange. A lot of teams are going to have a lot of losses to start the year until their talent comes together
I posted the rebounding numbers.
King was our top guy in rebounds, and if you look at rebounds per minute played he was by far our most productive guy. We need rebounders!
My guess is we'll get another bigger kid in the portal.
Sure King was a solid rebounder, but the Rob Jones/Hasan Ward tandem gave us 8rpg. Can the Jackson, Rock and Chatfield trio give the Clones 10-12 RPG?
I am sure the staff will challenge Momcilovic to be better on the boards next year.n The staff challenged Tre King to lead the Big12 in rebounding. He didn't get there, but gotta believe that will be a focus for Milan as well.
Lastly, Heise will get more minutes than Paveletzke and will be a big rebounding improvement.
Jefferson will be a cyclone, we should hear this week. William Kyle will not be a cyclone, although he wanted to be. And we may get a player back who entered the portal, but had second thoughts. And no it’s not Omaha.
Welp, found the premium leak
So you are saying Caleb Grill is coming back . . . . .
Another silent commit? jimlad
