Rashad Vaughn - Not going to ISU

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Tuesday

Team should still be good next year - just not elite level (pending a transfer or two)

Oh well. I guess we have to wait on the conference championship for another couple of years. These last 2 days have got to be 2 of the most disappointing days I have had as a Cyclone fan.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Tuesday

I'd be willing to bet this hinged more on relationship with potential fellow recruiting class members than a lot of us are giving credit for.

The handler drug him to Vegas for a reason. The Wolfson tweet speaks volumes.

This is my biggest fear of what would drive Fred to the NBA sooner than later.
Recruiting is such a dirty, dirty business.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Tuesday

I agree with a couple of others here. I think Matt could be setting up a joke here. The words may have to to be ambiguously chosen intentionally. Then RV commits, and Matt can go and say his tweet was about last night's game!

It would be just a tad classless (although hilarious) if Rashad was courteous enough to let the ISU staff know that he is going to UNLV, and Matt went and spilled the beans before the announcement. So I am still hoping this is a fantastic joke by Matt!

Im really glad he did. Dont have to pay attnetion to Vaughn anymore.

Glad its over.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Tuesday

I guess what I don't understand is what changed for RV? After the Michigan game he made it seem like iowa st. Was the front runner. Since that game the national media have been all over iowa st and CFH. Every week nearly. Meanwhile UNLV season keeps getting worse.

Can we please pursue some post players now?

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Tuesday

So let me get this straight I know nothing about UNLV, but the beat writter for them was on Miller and Brinson and basically said the team and offense is a train wreck, fans dont buy tickets and their coach cant utilize talent. So why would anyone go there?

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Tuesday

Should be able to find a 4 year transfer who is more productive than a freshman 5 star.

Kane round 2 is what we need.

Good luck to RV. Time to move on and focus our energy on those who take pride in donning the cardinal and gold.

They will have 5 mcdonalds AAs next year. They are in freaking Vegas. The NBA summer league will be there.

As I said last week he really like the recruiting class coming in, he love Vegas, and wants to play with other NBA players that workout in Vegas over the summer

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Tuesday

Honestly I dont believe this is about money for Rashad but I do however think this has something to do with his handler.

One could say he would have the limelight all to himself, and not have to share it with anybody else. He would be the star at UNLV...but here, at ISU, just a really good player.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Tuesday

Well, this is probably a wasted post, but I would hope if he indeed does commit elsewhere, that ISU fans can remain cool about it.....don't forget there are going to be plenty of other highly-ranked recruits out there in the future. Let's not act like a bunch of whiners for them to see.
