Please commit that weekend too, KyKy!

The staff visiting with him yesterday and setting up a visit to campus two weeks shows to me Tandy is very interested in ISU. Especially considering the other schools who have visited him in the past few days.
We'll need to see if he sets any more OV's soon and possibly sneaking one in this weekend but if Prohm can get his first official visit I like the position ISU is in.

I'm a little worried about Buzz Williams here. Agree with what you said though.

Wonder if we would take both?


That's what I was wondering. it does assume LW is gone in the spring though. If they were both comfortable with it and our coaches think Wigginton is as good as gone, I don't see why we wouldn't.

We have some 2/3 type guards with Lewis, Leech and THT.

This class has to focus on 1's and combo guards from here out, so landing these two would be perfect.

Buzz worries me a lot. I like him a lot as a coach. Hopefully Prohm can close the deal.

We'll only sign 3 in the fall and already have 2. Prohm won't oversign. Go after a JUCO guard in the Spring once LW leaves

Any reason why not? It's not like it's some secret Wigginton is going to be gone after this year.

Yeah and even if Wigginton came back. Someone will most likely transfer. It's just the way it is.

It would not shock me if it plays out from here as...

Tandy is Priority 1A.

We get him or we do not. Life is simple sometimes.

If we get him, we're done.

If not, Jackson is our contingency plan.

Obviously, Jackson lacks Tandy's pedigree, but I trust Prohm sees something there, and the recent offer to South Carolina also makes me feel better.

And we're done.

Transfer/JUCO to replace Wigginton in the spring/summer.

I think it works out either way.

I know ISU hasn't been recruiting Tre anywhere near as long as KyKy but considering the effort and attention they have shown to Jackson over the past month I don't think the staff see's him a "contingency plan". Especially with Tre's visit scheduled earlier than Kyky's. I still believe the staff #1 is Tandy but I am starting to think #1A is Tre if not equal.
I am sensing some Haliburton/Tyler Harris vibes in this recruitment.

I think our staff get's impatient with some recruits who won't make up their mind. Which I totally understand. I think that is what happened with Tyler Harris. Haliburton and him were graded the same in the coaches mind and Haliburton jumped on it.

Who were our major competitors for Haliburton...?

I seem to remember he was kind of ours the entire time.

CW and the whole "I will run around Jack Trice naked if we don't get this guy" story.
