Is ISU looking at McCabe at all?

[Aclone]

Just a guess, but...
-Oliver is from Wisconsin and did not receive an offer. Not really a Bo type player. Was recruited solely on potential. ISU is planning on redshirting him.
-Colvin may or may not be viewed favorably by Bo. That said, many "experts" have not been more found Colvin than of Diamond Taylor, a 2009 UW shooting guard commit, who is from The ChicagoLand.
-I doubt he is referring to MG, but some are always skeptical of JuCo's
-Dendy JuCo
-Scotty was from had an offer from Wisconsin
-Other guys we are targeting may in the area may not fit his profile
However, given the number of early ISU offers that later receieved UW offers, and players that considered/are considering both schools, this comment may have been taken out context

Without knowing the timing or specifics of said conversation, it's possible he was referring to a couple of players who are no longer committed as well.

1. I said major program. Iowa did not come close to meeting this criteria when he was signed.

2. I'm guessing Bawinkle got hot over a high school career and not just during a weekend or game or two at a summer tourney.

What major program does McCabe have offers from?

What major program does McCabe have offers from?

Minnesota, Virginia, Arizona State, Utah, and Iowa.

Minnesota, Virginia, Arizona State, Utah, .

Fixed.

Fixed.

Since when is Iowa not a major program?

Since they offered Bawinkle.

Since they offered Bawinkle.

So ISU's offering of Lucca is....?

 

[RossHallHero]

Since when is Iowa not a major program?

Since they started beating out St. Louis for their best players. :smile:

Surely you see why some programs might not have been aware of him since there was an ocean in the way of the recruiting trail.

 

[Cydkar]

So ISU's offering of Lucca is....?

Lucca: 8.2 ppg/2.2 rpg (1st year of college ball)

Devan: 4.8 ppg/ 1.6 rpg (3rd year of college ball)

terrible comparison. Lucca was twice as good on a bum knee in his first year playing college ball that Balwinkle was healthy in his third year

You do realize that he played a season of HS ball in Decatur, Illinois, right?

Programs became aware of him when he was the MVP of the Adidas ABCD camp. I think I read that's where we heard of him as well.

 

[DJK15]

Since they offered Bawinkle.

Does that make West Virginia not a major program?

Does that make West Virginia not a major program?

Did they offer him after they saw him play in JUCO?

I'm pretty sure he was committed to WV out of high school.

 

[Cydkar]

He was signed by Belein(sp) and kicked to the curb by Huggins when he took over.

 

[BryceC]

I'm pretty sure he was committed to WV out of high school.

Exactly. And when they had the opportunity to re-recruit him both at WVU and Michigan, neither one (or any other BCS school other than Iowa) wanted him. Thank you for making my point.

 

[Schlotskys]

How does his game compare? I am picturing Cory Johnson for some reason.

Robbie Hummel? Gordon Hayward?

McCabe signed with Iowa today
