Would you be happy if Jones had production similar to:
Percy Gibson, Anthony Booker or even Daniel Edozie?

Hoiberg got Royce White, Chris Babb, Chris Allen after the McDoormat era.
He had five transfers out of 450 or so (1.1% of all transfers). That means that Otz needs to get 13 transfers this year to be equivalent. All five turned out to be decent (White, Babb, Allen, Jake, Booker).

They say it is now around 25% in this Wild West free wheeling atmosphere.

Who's to say? Really it doesn't matter, he'll be judged by what he says by each post. He did come from nowhere and made a lot of stupid posts, so you could be right. He denied I think.

Makes you wonder though if true. Got nothing better to do?
I’ll be judged? Do you think I give a crap what anyone here thinks.

In one word, Yes. The whole point of posting your thoughts and opinions on this site is either to get positive affirmation. To open dialogue for differences of opinions and/or offer different viewpoints. Or to drum up a negative response from other poster. Which the latter makes you a troll. If you didn’t care what people thought. You would just come on here and read.

Not alot different that 13 & 5 at Northern Illinois.
Also, wasn't DeAndre Kane's stats not that mind blowing coming from Marshall? He worked out ok. What I would have done to have just one more year with Kane. I've never seen a one year player become so loved by a fan base. Dude was a beast! My favorite PG since Tinsley.

Uh no, I have opinions. If people like them, hate them or don’t read them makes no difference to me.

They obviously see potential in him and if he gets here and doesn’t work out they can move on but even if he doesn’t work out it can still benefit ISU bc they want to get in on Minnesota kids and when you take a kid from an AAU program or school then you start to have ins with those coaches and they might help you down the road land some recruits.

16 points, 5.5 rebounds and 4.5 assists. He was pretty impressive honestly.

Completely agree. Hopefully this chess move works out for us. Also, hopefully now we sign a couple guys that’ll actually get us all fired up a lil bit.

You are correct I wa

You are correct. That was a not a well researched comment on my part. I do recall he had some character questions coming in. Coach Hoiberg was really good about getting guys to buy in right away. Imo that Ejim, Kane team was the best overall team we had since the 99-00 season. Imo.
