From a friend of the family coach Mac has offered son of Ronnie Harris..Harrison Barnes a fresh at Ames High a scholarship. Mac has been great at spoting talent early and it would be huge to get Harrison Barnes on board!
New Basketball offer
- Thread starter kcclones
- Start date
I don't believe you for one reason; NCAA guidelines say that you can't contact high school freshman.
play nice 62 ...
wasn't there news we were talking to some 12 year old a few months back (ok maybe 14) they can verbal all they want
Wow someone better tell Mac to stop doing it then b/c i remember hearing about Jordan Dykstra...I guess the family doesn't know..you do
thatta kid - sock it to him!
Dykstra! he's like barely out of diapers and we're all about him
I can back up nickborton's claim on the scholarship offer. My cousin is a friend of the Harris/Barnes family and he told me about the recent offer a few days ago. I didn't want to say anything at first, but since nickb has brought it up, I thought I'd chime in to back him up.
i trust all offers Mac has been making lately....people have been quick to jump on some offers and then weeks later rankings change and everyone is excited
NCAA rules do in fact say coaches can't initiate contact with recruitable athletes before their junior year, but they can send letters, and nothing prohibits recruits from contacting the coaches to talk and to set up unofficial visits. On visits coaches can offer scholarships, recruits can only verbal as they can't sign until their senior year. We can offer scholarships, it is done quite frequently. Remember Jeff Horner and Dean Oliver at Iowa? This would be our second 2010 comittment.
Couldn't agree more. I'm interested in hearing about his game. Has anyone seen him play?
