Potential Transfers '14

[CoKane]

Are you guys serious? He would be a lock to start the first semester. Right now we return the following posts: Georges.
Georges is not exactly known for defense and rebounding. Second semester we would actually have 3 posts for the 80 minutes. We have been gravely thin in the frontcourt this year, and have lost games because of it. Get this guy and Hogue and Nader can play their natural positions, or when the match-up is favorable.

Getting a guy like Lee and a combo guard like Bryce DeJean-Jones is exactly what we need.

Who else are we getting in the second semester other then McKay? Nader is starting first semester isn't he?

Why all of this transfer talk already? Our team is together and playing for all the marbles... We have great players returning next year, the future is bright.

Don't confuse transferring in with transferring out. Most of the transfer speculation is about transfers IN.

Here is the guard you are all looking for- Ronnie Johnson from Purdue. Problem is that he has to sit out a year.

Ronnie Johnson transfers from Purdue

Johnson was a two-year starter at point guard whose 10.8 points this season ranked second only to older brother Terone's 12.0. The 6-foot Johnson ranked ninth in the Big Ten Conference with 3.7 assists while shooting 41.8 percent from the field, 30.4 percent from 3-point range and 66.7 percent at the free throw line.

Temple forward Anthony Lee will transfer and be eligible next season. Sources told ESPN that Iowa St, Illinois, Marquette, Indiana in mix.

We need to stop with all these transfers and start doing it the "right way" see what I did there? You go get, take, TALENT when available. If talent wants to come here and you can mold him into your system ahhhhh hell yes!!!

Awesome. Pair him up with another eligible guard and then stash a sit-out transfer for next year if we have a 3rd scholarship opening up.

So his parents live in the Quad Cities? Looks like he wants them to be able to watch him play.

Makes sense, Ames is the closest good college basketball program to his parents

All I can say to potential scholar athletes who have us on their radar is if you want to be taught by a coach to make you better on and off the court and get you prepared to the next level you play for Coach Hoiberg. The proof is in the pudding.

 

[peteypie]

Looks like competition will be stiff.

Temple transfer Anthony Lee's list continues to expand. He's heard from Louisville, Ohio State, Florida, FSU, USC, Miami, Pitt, NC State.

 

[CoKane]

I'd love to see Dejean-Jones come here and have a better season then Vaughn, along with Iowa State having a better season then UNLV. Just something to rub it in a little.

 

[Rabbuk]

We will be better than unlv book that.

Washington State's coach just got fired; how about DaVonte Lacy?

DaVonte Lacy Stats, News, Videos, Highlights, Pictures, Bio - Washington State Cougars - ESPN

He's a 6'4, 215 lb guard, shooting 39% from 3 and averaging 19 points/game, with one year to play (I think he'd have to sit a year though).

Champaign is the same distance as Ames.

 

[MeanDean]

Champaign is the same distance as Ames.

He said good. And Madison is closer than Ames, technically.

 

[nfrine]

Champaign is the same distance as Ames.

So...Ames is still the closest place with a good BB program.....
