This list will change in the next week. Big recruiting/evaluation period.
I would say Dante is a for sure one and done. I would say Foster we could get for a couple years. I think he has to develop more. I have seen both play live and Dante is a ton better right now. I would say it depends on if you want more a couple year guy or an immediate impact that can take us to the next level in that one year type guy. I would take both. hah
Foster. He seems less likely to be NBA ready in 1 year (like it matters anymore) plus he's in-state.
I would say Dante. I am always for taking the best player available, then worrying about the next season when it comes.
Add Darria as a rising priority for ISU this summer.
First of all, I’m going to cop out here a little and say that I couldn’t pick just one. Hassan Diarra’s recruitment is somewhat late-blooming and schools are really just starting to go after the four-star point guard. California, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa State, Maryland, Penn State, Seton Hall, St. John’s, Texas A&M and Wake Forest have all offered since May after Diarra entered the spring with mostly upper end mid-major offers.
So far, of those new schools he’s only been on campus at St. John’s and new coach Mike Anderson has a playing style that is a great fit and the Red Storm have definitely worked their way into the mix. Others that could be making strong first impressions include Illinois, Iowa State and Texas A&M. But, I think we are a month or two from figuring out which schools are truly those to beat for Diarra.

So if I understand the scholarship situation, we know we will have two open for sure, with expected graduations of Michael Jacobson and Prentiss Nixon. Transfers/early departures could create more. Let's say for argument sake we end up with three open scholarships. Is this a best talent available situation, or do they focus those on positions? I ask as the question above asked which of the two PF/C types we would prefer. Looking at the offers, it seems a C/PF is the primary need, with others offers out to a wing and a guard. Would we take two C/PF types, or if three are available would we more definitively spread and take a wing and a PG?
A frontcourt with Conditt, Foster, and Griffin in a couple years could be ridiculously good.
I've heard from posters on here claiming we have zero shot with Dante?
Also love the legacy recruit from Minnesota think he could be a 4 year player staple of your program type.
Dante ain't coming to Iowa State. Plus Foster can stretch the floor and shoot 3's.
Prohm will isn't afraid to oversign in fall this year. He said it in the podcast with Halstead. I'd expect 3 players to be signed in the early period if that's the case.
This would be for Dudley Blackwell and Jayden Stone
