Makale Foreman Grad Transfer

[LLCoolCY]

Makes me more optimistic about getting JCL.

I had the same thought... especially with Prohm speaking about Tyler Harris applying for the waiver. Adding 3 guards who can play next year to Bolton and Jackson wouldn't have worked.

 

[Cyinthenorth]

Thank God. Everything is in good shape so long as we get JC-L

 

[RustShack]

Thank God. Everything is in good shape so long as we get JC-L

And if Harris gets that waiver.

When is JCL's date to commit?

There is a rumor going around it's today. No idea if that's true or not.

 

[Cyinthenorth]

And if Harris gets that waiver.

We'll be positioned well to compete to get back to the big dance if we land JC-L and have an immediately eligible Harris. My how the turntables

Closer to Friday evening/ Saturday morning is what I'm hearing

Which, if true, would be good timing with the Foreman to Cal announcement.
fingers crossed we hear some good news with JC-L today or soon.

Cal seems to have a taller campanile.

Cal's campanile is more than 3x the height of ISU's (307'). It was probably the weather that pushed the Bears over the top, though.

Odds we get JCL? Any rumblings out there at the moment?

1/100 we don't get him. Maybe even better than that

 

[GetAwesome]

Well hey, Cal and Michigan should be full on schollies now. That's gotta be somewhat positive for Cyclones landing Coleman-Lands.

 

[Clones17]

1/100 we don't get him. Maybe even better than that

1/100 as in we aren't getting him, or 1/100 as no chance we don't get him? lol

 

[ChrisMWilliams]

This Foreman announcement is a good thing.

 

[Clones17]

This Foreman announcement is a good thing.

Hearing any good news on JCL, Chris?

 

[Hayes30]

1/100 as in we aren't getting him, or 1/100 as no chance we don't get him? lol

If I'm reading it right there is 1/100 chance he does not come to Ames.

 

[isufbcurt]

This Foreman announcement is a good thing.

The Great and Powerful Oz has spoken

The premium lounge is a very good investment for those of you that can afford it. I know not everyone can, but the recruiting information and insight that CW has been able to provide has been well worth the monetary commitment.

 

[CyTwins]

JCL would be a huge pickup

I agree with you that the All-American teams are particularly fraught for these purposes. For instance, Niang and Morris had magnificent seasons from a statistical and an efficiency standpoint their senior years, but because the team itself was a Top 20 squad and not a Top 10 one that won many championships, neither of them received much. The AA teams are a lot like the Heisman voting with the same “best player on the best team” bias about them. You need to have some ESPN hype around you, too.

I think that is less true with the all-B12 teams, though, and voting for CPOTY. The voters are much more familiar with the candidates, the schedule is balanced between the teams, and therefore you have a set of voters understanding candidates, choosing from a reasonable number of choices, and do not have the issues for adjusting for scheduling quality.

DeAndre was first-team all-B12 along with Melvin. Even if you were bullish on DeAndre coming into that year, predicting he was going to be voted as one of the five best players in the conference — and undoubtedly deserve it — would have been pretty bullish of you given some of his numbers at Marshall. I really want some investment tips from you going forward if you somehow knew a guy who shot 25% from three in C-USA was going to go toe-to-toe with a handful of future lottery picks for the title of the best guard in the conference and basically come out ahead of them. Saying that guy was going to be better than Marcus Smart would take some brass buttons.

Neither of them received much? Niang was awarded as the top PF in the nation with the Karl Malone award and was a consensus 2nd team AA his senior year and was a 3rd team AA his Junior year.
