He wasn't a post. He was a point/combo guard who made his living getting to the paint and finishing at or around the rim.
Ok. What lackwit Hawkeye troll retread is this poster?
Yes so you could see where he was ranked When he signed with Iowa st. He then missed his whole junior year due to injury. I would guess that is why his ranking went down?
Interesting side note as well. King was also offered Football scholarships by: Notre Dame, Stanford, Penn State, Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, Iowa St, Missouri.
There is a thread about Iowa basketball that is almost always on the front page that's 3+ years old. I'm not surprised a thread about a guy on this year's roster has lasted 2 weeks. It'll be here until he plays or transfers.
I found that site as well when I was trying to locate MN high school stats, doesn't make much sense unfortunately. Iowa has an awesome statistics portal for HS games/players all the way back to 2006. I haven't had luck finding something like that for Minnesota but from the newspaper articles I've seen about Eli it doesn't seem he shot many 3's; one clip said in his final game he scored 30+ points with 0 shots from deep.what is his reputation coming in? Was he really that prolific of a shooter at Caldonia?
16 games played he was 3-18 from 3 his senior year. 16.7%

Not saying anyone on here really knows how Eli will develop or pan out. And we know there's alot more to offense than just the 'three ball'. But it is interesting to see a guy who was a '4-star' have trouble getting a few minutes. Maybe down the road we can relish in a most improved player thread.
Not sure what you mean by this. There is a lot of data out there supporting that the Big 12 has been the best conference in the sport for the past 3 years or so.
