Wes situation mentioned in Fran Fraschilla's ESPN Insider blog today

[kuney1]

Well, like someone else posted, the book has unwritten rules that coaches follow, so I doubt anything will come out officially.

 

[Wesley]

Kentucky (Billy G) and Southern Miss (Larry E new home) are in the SEC. Maybe Shane owes LE a favor or two.

So the Brister connection to this point is that it doesn't sound like him and McDermott got along well, and Brister and Wesley both played for the same AAU team.

What about Brister --> SEC?

Brister doesn't have the time...taking care of a baby.

Not attacking, just playing.

I love the fact that you're giving us info, but toying with folks isn't very nice - regardless of how much you may enjoy it.

I understand you can't give away the info easy - just don't tug on our strings.

Brister doesn't have the time...taking care of a baby.

That's another scary thought...

Sounds like that could still be Wes

 

[Ciclone]

Press conference not available at Cyclones.com?

I don't see a link (or a "link not available yet").

 

[kg-cyclone]

Somebody start the 10 min count down....

 

[06_CY]

That's another scary thought...

My thoughts as well.

So has this former player been mentioned in this thread?

Kentucky (Billy G) and Southern Miss (Larry E new home) are in the SEC. Maybe Shane owes LE a favor or two.

Southern Miss is C-USA as well, so LE is off the hook.

I think Southern Miss. is in Conference USA.

So putting the pieces together it sounds like:
Former ISU player assists AAU coach in making back channel deal to send Wes to Alabama?

 

[swisher]

Shane Power left LE's team to play for Mississippi State. He wasn't happy with ISU. Shane?

 

[06_CY]

I think I got it:

Dan McCarney is helping Billy the Kid pull Wes to Florida. :yes:

 

[Wesley]

I think Southern Miss. is in Conference USA.

Yep, I should have said Miss State.

 

[cybsball20]

Were any of the Vegas games on Comcast SE? That would have been the only way Power would be connected to Wes.

 

[CyGuy33]

Southern Miss also in Confernce USA

 

[Todd]

"through a former Cyclone teammate"

has to have played for ISU in the last 2 years
