[180class]

Looks slow and clumsy. Hope I'm wrong.

For being 7 feet tall and 17 years old, he's not that clumsy at all. And outside of some elite 7 footers (KD, Giannis, etc) you're not going to find many that are fast.

I think Williams will be a senior, next season.. We will need some vets in the transfer portal. 2023/24 is a YOUNG team to expect to compete in the the best basketball conference.

Jeremiah Williams has 3 years of eligibility remaining.

He was a freshman during 2020- doesn't count
2021- played
2022- medical redshirt, doesn't count

He's got 3 years, so you can consider him a sophomore next year, although who's to say if he decides to use all 3 years.

Was just thinking, JT looks like he's 9 years old.

I said that to someone yesterday. Looks like a 12 year old in a 7ft body

 

[Cyclones8824]

****. The kid has played so little I forgot his name. Thanks.

I’ll say this, he is the biggest cheerleader on our bench. Looks like he’s ready to fight someone. I really hope he becomes a player for ISU.

Don’t forget about Conrad. Eli follows him on the bench and in timeouts. Conrad is the CEO

And when he's 70 he will only look like he's 50. It evens out.

He might not like it now, but will later.

Am I dreaming this up but did his 247 ranking dive yesterday? I could have sworn he was directly adjacent to Koch as a low 4 star, but now he’s all the way in the 130s for ranking.

Tyler Peterson from Washington, Iowa back in the mid-1990s was listed at over 7'0". Was behind Cato & Tony Rampton on the depth chart. A gentle giant, he transferred to UNI and played a couple of years in Europe after college. It is hard to imagine Iowa State having 3 players at 6'11" and above at the same time.

He lived on my floor at UNI, great dude.

247 has him ranked at 60. The composite is 138. So other rankings are really low for some reason.

 

[brycy]

Curious if anyone would be able to figure out total 3 pointers made by a Cyclone 7 footer. Can't imagine it would be many. Excited to see JT get a chance to change that. Probably come in at 6'11" and ruin it for me.

I’ll go with evaluations of the half dozen or so top programs that offered JT.

 

[JVAR]

Am I dreaming this up but did his 247 ranking dive yesterday? I could have sworn he was directly adjacent to Koch as a low 4 star, but now he’s all the way in the 130s for ranking.

What is killing him is the Rivals ranking in the composite rankings. I’m not sure if they have ever even evaluated him or just given him a three star. 247 has him ranked 60 and On3 63. I would trust those evaluations. I am surprised Rivals doesn’t at least have him in the top 150, so my guess is that they really haven’t given him a thorough evaluation. I couldn’t find an ESPN profile for him either but they are the fourth place one I trust behind Rivals, 247, and On3.

Years ago in the big8 Eric piatkowski from Nebraska was a big and could hit the trey JT rock reminds me of him a bit

I think Piatkowski was more athletic and less of a big and more of a small stretch 4. He was only actually about 6"7. They are both white though. So that part works.

TJ building a monster. Pretty sure TJ is already my favorite coach of any sport of all time.

Piatkowski was a 6'7" 2 guard/ small forward.

Beat me to it. I never considered Piatowski a big, but dude could shoot and was tough as nails.

 

[UnCytely]

Otz’s recruiting is still white note and no signs of cooling off.

So no sharps or flats?

Or Kevin Pittsnogle. Gritty center that could hit the trey. Played before Huggins I believe.
