Graham Couch: Iowa Basketball is a mid-major roster

cyhiphopp said:
Even if the hawks are in the top 4 for Carton, that doesn't equate to a 25% chance. You know that right? Unless Carton had said it's an even split between my top 4 teams, which he hasn't.

Say Carton did cut it down to four, and Iowa made the top 4 with Michigan, tOSU, and Marquette.

That still doesn't mean it's an even race between all 4. It would more likely be 50% for the favorite, 25% for the second team and 12.5 for 3 and 4.

Point being, there's usually a favorite, which lowers the odds for anyone else in the top 4 or 5 or whatever.

You get that right?

UM- 35%
OSU- 25%
Iowa- 25%
Indiana- 7%
Xavier- 6%
Marquette- 1%

I will remind everybody that these were once the 247 predictions for Iowa State commits:
Horton-Tucker - Michigan State
Griffin- Kansas
Wigginton- Oregon
Lewis- Illinois

And if you look at the recruiting 'experts' on 247, Iowa State won't land a single prospect they have offered for the 2019 class. And then the way they save their prediction percentages is by switching picks at the last minute once everyone knows who the kid will be committing to. The crystal ball stuff is a joke.

That being said, I am not even predicting Carton goes to Iowa. Just saying the trolls on here make it seem like he has zero chance of going to Iowa and I don't think that is the case.

Crystal Ball has no effect on why I don't think Iowa will get Carton. When people are saying there is a clear top 3 in his recruitment and Iowa isn't included that's pretty solid info IMO

Sorry but Marquette is in 4th and Iowa maybe 5th above Xavier. The top 3 have been clear for weeks with Michigan leading but I wouldn’t be surprised if Indiana snags him after his official.

OSU has been the assumed front runner within the past couple of weeks.
 
Honestly I do not think there is a front runner for Carton. Anyone that is saying Michigan, OSU, Iowa, Indiana ect. are just speculating at this point.

Everyone loves to think Michigan because of recent success and Beilien calling during a TV interview. Whatever the flavor of the month is is going to get all the attention. I will pay more attention to that stuff when he says he is going to decide. Location is a bigger thing than most people think.
