Curtis Jones Commits to Iowa State
- Thread starter LLCoolCY
- Start date
It feels like we went hard for guys with upside and some eligibility beyond this year rather than going after 4th or 5th year guys. I am 100% cool with that.
He will be all conference on the hairdo team. Love his 'do!
Welcome to Ames, Curtis! Have fun and work hard. Thanks for choosing the good guys!
He is cruising into contention afer the long hair, from Okla, went to Wichita St.
LOL
Why does the Tipton guy leave out “State” on these edits?
Well, he was in Buffalo.
This guy and Paveletzke are going to run the Big 12 all hair team. Love it.
I think that's the way to do it going forward. The new transfer rules make you sit out the 2nd time you transfer. So, it's unlikely these guys would be poached for NIL deals from some other school.
We also finally have some roster stability. I don't think the staff likes replacing 8-9 guys every year. As it stand now, we'll be losing 3 seniors (Jones, Ward and King) and replacing them with 3 freshman. Inevitably we'll probably have 2-3 guys transfer out leaving us with 2-3 openings for transfers next year which is about perfect.
I’m cool with that and I’m also cool with the 1 year guys if it fills a need.
Feeling real good about these 7 new guys, not seeing a weakness outside of a major post threat but guards getting to the rim is just as effective. Is this the year we aren't the worst FT shooting team in B12?
Thank you to all those that support We Will as it was a huge help over the past few weekends when presenting potential NIL opportunities as part of the recruiting process. The best times are ahead!
True, as a poster mentioned previously. There is no 'weather shock' from being from somewhere south, FL, etc.
Which is good.
If we can somehow next season duplicate our defensive prowess from the past 2 years...it could be a very special year.
Yeah replacing nearly all of roster every year isn't a long term plan for success. Would like some guys we can really get to know.
