I feel so bad for both of those two guys...I know they got a great education at a great school and played basketball and got full support from our fanbase, but at the same time I feel like they gave so much to give so little...


Rashon Clark probably could of went pro...but when Mcdermott was hired he had to play mcdermott's game and he did it without complaining and really lost alot of offensive power and turned into a rebounder and defensive player, he did it because he loved us the fans and Iowa State

Brackins passed up millions of dollars to come back and restore some pride into Iowa State, that didn't happen for him, he sat on a crappy losing team for three years...

What I'm saying is that i feel bad for them they wanted to do such great things for their school and didn't really get a whole lot out of it, not what they wanted so much
 
I agree with that for the most part. Except for the part about Clark going pro. Unless you meant in Germany or something. Then I agree, maybe.
 
Under morgan his offensive abilities seemed consistent, he had twenty point games with morgan, but when mcdermott was hired, it really seemed like he dwindled offensively
 
He was a decent stand still 3 point shooter, and a good rebounder. That usually doesn't get you into the NBA
 
I would have loved to have seen Clark play another year in Morgan's system. Watching him was worth the price of admission. It wasn't a good fit with Greg but he really excelled on the defensive end.

At least Rahshon played and won a NCAA tournament game. Not a horrible deal.

He sat on an ever evolving team for 3 years but the friends he made will be the guys that stand-up in his wedding and call him when someone close to him dies - the same types of friendships WE have (or will if you're a kid) made. Not a waste by any stretch of the imagination.
