Oh no, we have to go up against St. Thomas!

At least, I assume UST is St. Thomas. I didn't click on the link.

If you are a Hawkeye fan, these are the normal schools they have to beat for basketball recruits

Any idea where McCaffery may be headed?

Grinnell college where he doesn’t have to play defense

Some of these kids have birth year in 2009, when I was in college... HTF does that happen so fast? I don't want to be this old

Lol welcome to the club. I graduated high school in 2000

They just moved to QC from Florida so never grew up surrounded by Hokroaches, thus not brainwashed. I have seen him a couple of games. He is good but I don't know that he stands out. Seemed to play within himself and for the team, not individual glory.

This makes me feel old.

What happened? I was able to be a Cyclone fan my whole adult life! It has been awesome!
I was able to see:

1) I got to see Nate Carr wrestle and win National Championships as well as the last ISU National Team Champions.

2) I saw Ron Harris limit the great Wayman Tisdale in a game ISU won. I saw Barry Stevens go point for point with Steve Alford, and Danny Manning never win a game in Hilton, and Lafester drop 54 on Iowa. And all the stars since then.

3) I attended the memorial service for the women’s cross country team killed in a plane crash and gave one of the girl’s mom a hug as I likely got the last one from her at a party a night or two earlier.

4) I saw the football team knock off Oklahoma State in bitter cold when they had the great Leslie O’Neal playing defensive tackle. I saw “The Run” from Seneca Wallace and thousands of Troy Davis yards.

5) I remember when Bill Fennely wasn’t the women’s basketball coach at Iowa State and I even reffed a WBB scrimmage on the Hilton court.

I could go on and on, but those experiences were priceless so I don’t consider myself old, but rather wonderfully experienced! Go Cyclones!

Nice humble brag…I kid I kid. I’m jealous, so many great moments you mentioned. I need to account for the great ones too

Ha! My post wasn’t meant to brag, rather to counter the comment I responded too that time didn’t just pass, rather there were some really great times we were fortunate to experience.

Yeah I know I was just giving a hard time. Great moments either way!

 

[Drew0311]

Very strange. I can't even find a recruiting profile on him. Strange that a kid who is 6'10 and the son of a former All American and NBA player isn't getting much recruiting attention. I know he is young but normally his dad's bio mixed with him being 6'10 will get you some notice.

 

[CyPunch]

Wouldn't say he exactly jumps off the page as a high major player yet
