Thanks for the videos. 7'2" wingspan. Looks very active on defensive with nice body control. Good frame too. Nice footspeed as well.

Would love to have him more than the other one-year transfers we are after. Good size, strength, and agility for a big. Also have to like his shot blocking and him being on the conference All Defensive Team.

I still think Harris would be my #1, then this guy. Haven't seen much of Bielfeldt play but I don't believe he is this tall and long. Nelson-Ododa definitely seems like the more proven between him and Bielfeldt. But I'm sure the staff will find the best fit for us!

Man, recruiting would drive me nuts. While the staff probably knows there's more transfers to come or some they would yet like to visit, if you don't offer a guy right away on their visit, then you wonder if they'll get swept up by someone else why you scope the field. Or you do offer and wait for the best guy you think fits and he doesn't end with up choosing the good guys.

Agreed. It is kinda like the stock market. Do I sell now? Or do I wait?

Does anyone know which of these transfers we have offered to? I heard we offered King, per the story where he states it, but any of the other guys who have visited, etc?

Yeah, I want Harris and this Nelson-Ododa kid. That would be perfect IMO. Harris brings in some offense off the bench if you need offense, and Nelson-Ododa brings in great defense and rebounding if you need that.

This Nelson-Ododa kid is 6'9" with a 7'2" wingspan. Blocks everything and grabs a lot of rebounds too. Of course, if Fred won't play Edozie in a game where none of our guys will rebound, then I'm not sure if he'd play this kid either?

Harris is gonna be tough to get IMO. He may say he wants to win and that's what's most important but if he came out said he wants more playing time, more this and more that, it would raise huge red flags for any coaching staff. Would be great to have him but it certainly seems like he's gonna go where he can be one of/the featured guy. The article posted on here a few days back about his Auburn visit made it seem like he loved it. Just find it odd we didn't hear much about his visit here..

Funny thing about Harris is he has delusions of being drafted, so wants PT. I have to think even getting less minutes at ISU would be his best bet to be seen every gm by scouts as opposed to playing more minutes for the average teams he is considering.

You're probably right.

Ya, idk what sort of offensive game he has. If he has a decent motor though he could still fit in in a McKay type role (I realize nobody has McKay's motor).
