This was a great read to give some insight on a kid who not much was out there about yet. I want this kid a lot more after reading that.
At this point, I'd settle for a Woodbury clone just to get recruiting going...
Just curious, since he's a 2018, why an 'unofficial'? Because recruits haven't narrowed down a list so they don't want to use them up? Do recruits only get 5 officials? Or did I dream that? What limitation is put on the college as to how many they can give? TIA
Unofficial essentially means they are paying their own way to come. They are getting the treatment, but there isn't the defined schedule and the "glits and glam" of an official. unofficials are helpful, in basketball, with kids so they can get to campus for a game in the winter or during down times in their hectic AAU and HS schedules. I think any time a player takes an unofficial it is a good sign, because it shows that they want to come and see it on their own time, and especially if they have their officials left. Because, that means more likely than not we are getting at least one more visit from the young man.
No ISU offer or interest yet but a kid to keep an eye on being geographically close and our history with IHCC.
Didn't play much his freshman year at Pitt but was a top 100 recruit in hs and held good offers.

Yes a recruit only gets 5 officials. Also, schools are limited on the number of official visits they can host.
C'mon guys. It was just a little sarcasm and I got as many dislikes as I figured, but Woodbury wasn't as bad as many of you made him out to be (nor as good as Fran made him out to be
)How many can schools host? That seems very restricting for the non blue bloods especially. Hard to know who to risk going all out for and/or a highly ranked guy that you may come in fourth or fifth on. I assume there is no restrictions on a school's limit for transfer visits?
That doesn't seem like very many to me. Is that the NCAA's attempt to keep costs down for the universities? Or to keep rich donors/budget programs from getting to host every elite player out there? Guess ISU has to hope several recruits will agree to some unofficials first. Which might be another strong reason to concentrate more on the midwest than the south. What Mississippi guy will pay his own way for an unofficial? And there should be a rule, that when you release a player thats backed out of his LOI, that you get his official visit number back.

That eyeball-poking-alligator-armed-jump-ball-cheating-Hawk? No thanks.
Does anyone pay much attention to ESPNs recruiting. I'm not an insider, so I don't get much content but from what I can see it just doesn't seem like its updated much and no one seems to pay attention to it.
Take for instance what it has for Iowa State...

Zion Williamson would look pretty sharp in Cardinal and Gold.
That is what I thought.
I'll just pretend we are considering Zion and he is considering us.
