Iowa State makes top 6 with Barnes!!

Re: Harrison Barnes thread

I will be more than likely be running into HB tomorrow and if I do, will read him VERBATIM about your "5 +1" scenario and ask him if that in fact is true.
I'm not afraid to name my sources...


Yup... I'm sure he will be one on one with his feelings with you.. Not like I never hid anything from people before...

I know people that have played with him... ISU doesn't have much of a chance... live with it.
 
I see what you are saying Jeremy but this is very easy to understand. Barnes didn't name his top 5 AND than Iowa State. He named the schools he would be going on an official visit to AND Iowa State. Don't you see the difference? He doesn't need to officially visit Iowa State because he grew up here. To me it is very clear and it is what I would do in his position.

Yes... I am...:jimlad:

I'll call you out first.... Unless your either his mother... His best friend... Or either his HS coach or AAU coach, I'm not putting stock into what your random run in with him is....
 
Well he has been to Kansas and Duke for very public visits - I guess he could throw a couple other schools into the mix then since he wouldn't need to take an official there either:rolleyes:

You are really starting to reach Jeremy. I think you can even see the difference in going to visit a school for the 3rd time or going to visit a school for the 3,000 time
 
Let's make this easier on everybody.

This is a free site that offers anybody and everybody something to love. A dozen or so moderators dedicate a lot of their time to help run this place. Thousands of active posters help keep things lively. Dozens and dozens of our fellow Cyclone athletes are active members and/or visitors.

And all some can do is complain because they don't like the news or they don't like to follow rules. Well, that is life. For everything there are sacrifices.

Going forward, I will not post ANY news; good or bad. Chris Williams will be handling all news, rumors, recruiting and other posting items.

I've had CycloneFanatic going strong for 4 years now and it's too bad that some individuals can't grow up and be respectful to people that try extremely hard to provide a top-notch site and service for the best price around (free).
 
Didn't anyone listen to the quote he had about Duke and their fans when he was on with Matt and Miller a couple weeks back... I'm suprised no one caught on to it. Instead they criticized Matt's question about Doug McDermott.

Barnes was asked what he thought about Cameron Indoor Stadium and Duke. He said something to the effect that. Cameron is the best place in the country for basketball and they have the best fan base in all of college.

Sounded like he was extremely high on them... Going as far as saying they are "the best" fanbase in all of college basketball. Not something you would say if your big time interested in another college.


And whats the point..... If ISU is in the top 10, top 6, top 5, top 2?? He isn't coming... The quicker you realize this the better for all your fragile egos

he lists iowa state in a 2nd paragraph! what is that! he just doing it outta respect! we do things the right way at isu! and if you wanna play for a bunch of cheaters like williiams! and coach k thats your choice!
 
First of all, thanks for the quote.
Second, I don't see how one can read it that way at all, unless one has a pair of "we're just Iowa State" glasses on. He used the word "considering" with all schools.

+1 for truth.

We are still very much in the Barnes sweepstakes.

Stop overreacting.

If he was genuinely considering Iowa State, he would have grouped them in with the rest of the schools.
 
FYI - The news is on another site as well and copying the text from there regarding an interview Barnes gave today will not be allowed. As always, we respect the wishes of other publishers and do not allow people to paste or repeat items from their for-fee service. It's a rule we've had for several years.
 
How about people just react when he actually signs a piece of paper. The kid is 17 years old and probably will change his mind 3 more times between now and signing day.

I'm not saying he is coming to I-State, but you don't watch much basketball if you don't agree with what he said about Duke.

I agree with him 100%, and I HATE Duke. That being said UNC would be hard for me to pass up.(don't like them either)
 
Something that people need to keep in mind about this. The article was written by a Kansas slant writer. Harrison Barnes didn't write it. It didn't put Iowa State in the second paragraph. This slant writer did. He could have listed all of those schools and than Iowa State without even pausing
