Sweet! Looking forward to dancing again next year.

One of the most telling things of Kane's type of talent in my opinion...
The Marshall fans are excited to watch Dre face off with West Virgina 2 more time. West Virginia boards are concerned that now they have to face Kane 2 more times.

Which is hilarious coming from the team that recruited a guy who recently got out of prison.
I think many Hawk fans were hoping that with all the talent that we lost that they might be able to steal a win in Hilton early in the year. If Kane solidifies the back court that severely lessens their chances.
I can't. No way will they be seeded that high unless it's the NIT your talking.
Yep, we felt the same way when KU landed Wiggins and the Memphis transfer. Those signings immediately changed their season outlook for next season.
Yeah, there's absolutely nothing wrong with bringing in a few transfers to balance out the experience on the team. Fred brought in Niang last year then Morris and Thomas this year. He is bringing in young talent. Transfers now are just providing some experience and production while the young players develop.
That would mean Iowa would have to get into the dance this year while not playing one of the easiest schedules in the history of basketball like last year and be seeded as an 8 or better. Yea no chance
I meant losing in the first round of the tourney as like a 10 seed when the game was theirs to win. Heartbreaking, not an upset.
Kane is a huge plus not only for this year, but will be instrumental for developing Morris as well. Whoever starts at PG (and I have to believe Kane will be in the starting 5), I hope Morris plays major minutes.
That said, I thought I saw something about Kane playing out of position for some of his time at Marshall; is he more of a natural PG who played some at SG or vice versa?

Natural slashing shooting guard, who was forced to play the 1 (Think Jake Anderson style). Though I think he has good enough handle of the ball to play the point, it isn't totally natural.
It's kind of subjective, but I believe he is more a combo guard than a PG but due to circumstances played a lot of point. He already said that the coaching staff talked to him about playing point and he is fine with it. What he didn't say but Fred probably did is that if he has any thoughts of playing at the next level it will be at the point so he better demonstrate his best stuff at that position this coming year.
That should work out well for him at ISU. He can play more point early in the season and maybe they can work in Morris with him more as the season progresses and Kane can work off the ball then. I love having more than one guy on the court that can really handle the rock.
So maybe this has already been answered but where is his scholarship coming from? Looks like we're chalk full already.
I'm picturing a tougher, better defending Chris Allen. Except this time we'll have a natural point guard, Morris, to step in right away or be worked in slowly, and ready for big 12.
