Lily Fisher is the younger sister of Emily Fisher, who was ISU's first known offer in the 2023 recruiting class. Emily ended up signing with Maryland. Their mom is an ISU alum.

Alic is bumped up to a 2.

Man, 2027. I am going to need to check actuary tables to see if I should bother following this.

Wonder how much Bill's comments about the current freshman being the foundation of his final years at Iowa State will impact our recruiting for 26 & 27. Given our history of quite a few very early verbals, I suspect that we may not see that unless a coach in waiting is named.

Names, names, names...I posted a while back the question of who would you like, or see, as the potential Bill replacement. That's years off though.

Wilson bumped up to a 3

I'll be adding Vickery to the list in the next day or two.

You need to start the thread, as this isn't the right place!

It's probably a "pie in the sky" thought since she's likely Bluder's eventual replacement at EIU, but we'd have to make a run at Jennie Lillis - she's the total package and makes considerably less at OU than CBF does at ISU.

Chris Kielsmeier has been getting it done for several years at Cleveland State...

 

[mred]

I'll be adding Vickery to the list in the next day or two.

She is now on the list.

Worley no longer on the list
