Which one of you posts on every ESPN article referencing Iowa State as "Kingalong Bingalong"?

They had multiple good choices from ISU. Could have made a case for Naz or McKay as well, depending on how you see minutes/roles shaking out.

Lol at number 8! I still can't understand the tons of people who think Iowa is a top 25 team. One preseason poll came out with Iowa in the top 15! Nader seems to be very highly praised and with McKay out until December, my guess is Nader gets a great chance to prove himself with a lot of playing time.

Isn't that the one that was a mistake that should have been ISU?

Fran McCaffery has a de[r]p frontcourt again with Aaron White, Adam Woodbury, Jarrod Uthoff and Olaseni.

I'd put Naz ahead of Nader on the list.

Maybe they all think that Naz is going to start this year? Otherwise I would have to agree unless Nader is really that good. Naz definitely belongs ahead of Olaseni and a few others on the list even if ESPN is right (which I don't think they are) and assumes both Nader and Nadz Long are coming off the bench.

I think the starters for the first 5 games will be Monte/Naz/Dejean-Jones/Hogue/Niang due to Nader's 2 game suspension. Bench for the first 2 games: Custer/Edozie/Tsalmpouris/Dorsey-Walker. Bench for games 3-5: Nader/Thomas/Custer/Edozie or Tsalmpouris.

Then around the Arkansas game I think the starters will be Monte/Dejean-Jones/Nader/Hogue/Niang. With a bench of Naz/Thomas/Custer/Edozie or Tsalmpouris

Then around the Kansas game in Hilton I think they will be Monte/Dejean-Jones/Hogue/Niang/McKay. With a bench of Nader/Naz/Thomas/Custer
