Iowa Football Recruiting

I actually think that Cook could be a rotation player on a contending team if he changed his focus from being a scoring 4 to a switchable small ball 5 that focused on rebounding and rim protection. He has the athletic ability to be a Montrezl Harrell type player but he just plays so soft.
He definitely has the weight for it, but he’s never been a very good defender. Harrell is much smoother offensively, but I would agree that Cook has the potential to be that type of player.
 
Is that Porter kid supposed to be any good? He ran well in high school.

I don't know that the straight line speed has translated all that well with route running. And, he needed to put on 20-30 lbs. There's still a chance he turns out to be a good player, but the clock is ticking at this point.
