STAFF PICKS: Xavier Foster

[Cyched]

It’s fun perusing HR and reading coded language about our supposed “low academic standards”

 

[IASTATE07]

Explain

don't.

 

[CoKane]

I’m hearing it’s a very Ejim-esque situation.

Wasn't around for Ejim's recruitment. What does that mean?

I still don’t get it. Where this academic superiority/arrogance comes from?

 

[WastedTalent]

He committed.

LOL what a bunch of tools.

 

[Hayes30]

Very similar to the Jared Homan recruitment. Let's just say things did happen in a way.

 

[Cyched]

LOL what a bunch of tools.

One guy in particular (deplorable dog?) is being the least subtle. But he doesn’t seem like a bright guy, so I don’t think he understands what he’s insinuating

 

[cyrocksmypants]

Explain

Melvin Ejim was a player for Iowa State from the years 2010-2014.

 

[Sigmapolis]

He committed.

He committed.

Changed the tone and culture of the entire program.

Kicked off the most successful stretch in program history.

Won Big 12 player of the year, left school with the most wins as a Cyclone.

Academic and athletic All-American.

One bad ************.

#3 EJIM going in the rafters someday.



Or maybe I am reading too much into the analogy...?

 

[BCClone]

Wasn't around for Ejim's recruitment. What does that mean?

He must be Canadian

What else do they even have to grasp onto? They make stuff up and run with it

And made TCU his *****.

Maybe we need to bring him back to Hilton for that game as a good luck charm to end Dixon’s streak against us

They are a fan base of learned doctors (and lawyers) not some hick ag and engineering school. Nevermind most of the fanbase didn't actually attend college or even obtained their GED. But clownz r dum!

And pointed to god in front of a bunch of Mormon’s

 

[kentkel]

I’m hearing it’s a very Ejim-esque situation.

So, in other words, once Foster commits, he gives Fran and the Hoks "the bird?" Me likey!!

EDIT : Dang, JM4CY beat me to it. Great minds think alike!!!

Several posters on HR insinuated that ISU is committing academic fraud. It is funny that how quickly they have forgotten about Ronnie Harmon, Devon Mitchell and company. I am a University of Iowa pharmacy school graduate and worked at the University of Hospitals and Clinics from 1998 to 2003. I worked with a pharmacy intern who was also working at computer lab. He brought in some English 101 class papers written by Iowa football and basketball players. Some of these papers were so bad that a first grader could have written a better paper. I wonder how these athletes stayed eligible when they couldn’t even write simple English sentences. The best sentence that I had seen was “she didn’t have know power”. It is really funny that most Iowa fans believe Iowa has higher academic standard and only recruits scholar athletes.

Speaking of bad English???

I remember cyismydog hyping Ejim as a good contingency to Barnes. Ejim never became a do everything SF as he was packaged as a recruit, but what a great player

 

[StClone]

That has to be one of his few off moments...we won even though he fouled out.
