I was being sarcastic in my post, guys. Making fun of the "tweets equal commitment" thought process. Shoulda #jimlad'ed it

I realize that but have heard elsewhere that it looks like he may carry out all or most of his visits.

Does this mean a Lard ruling is next?

Were there ever concerns about this during his recruitment?

Yes, I seem to remember him enrolling in a new high school abruptly last September. That is what delayed his visit here in the fall IIRC.

I think you know the answer to this.

 

[Cydkar]

For an away game?

For an away game?

Lack of airports in Ames makes it easier to fly them to Oklahoma state

Wasnt he here just 2 weeks ago for an unofficial? Sounds good that he is coming back so soon.

I really want Stokes, but if we end up with Allen instead I'd be ok with that. I think he's a special offensive player.

 

[Thompsonclone]

I think Allen and Stokes are completely different positions but I could be wrong. Allen is listed as a SG on 247.

Why not both?

Why not both?

Would we take 6 HS recruits?

 

[DurangoCy]

Why not both?

Sure.

Pretending like i know what the staff is thinking... Assuming Wigginton is our Number 1 priority, it seems like we'd then potentially be at a Stokes or Allen situation for HS recruit #5. I personally think they're all good enough to take, but given what happened with McKinley Wright it seems the staff is trying not to pile up recruits at the same position with this class. Perhaps they think Allen and Stokes are both good enough to take and Wright wasn't, hopefully we get to find out.

I don't think taking 6 HS players is a problem because the odds are that at least one of them doesn't work out.

New offer... Looks like a Euro Post.

@CoreyEvans_10 Iowa State has offered @HHhawksbball 2017 big man Mark Tikhoneho and 2019 Issa Samake, per source

Verballed to Arkansas State.

 

[Hayes30]

Why not both?

Exactly my opinion too

 

[bozclone]

I would think Allen is a wing and Stokes is a post. You take Stokes no matter what. You take Allen only if you think he is just too good to let go.
