Recruit Lists v2.0

Who are we recruiting that is mid-major talent in all seriousness?

Horne, Simppson, T. Cook, A. Cook, and Eric Curry seem to be our main recruits. All of those guys have numerous P5 offers.

Horne has probably the least impressive offer list, but he has a very high ceiling and has blown up recently.

When you watch his film, he looks as impressive as anyone on our list.

Agree with whole post, especially part about Horne. Big body so can bang around down low, can step out and hit jumpers, and can even handle the ball and get to the basket by himself. Would love to have him here.
 
I'd bet it will be Memphis, LSU, Tenn, Ark, Florida...maybe IU. Definitely not us.

Well, I was close...

@ebosshoops: Arkansas, Baylor, Indiana, LSU, Memphis and UNLV make up 2016 PG Jaylen Fisher’s final 6 per @DreamBigHurd. Assuming lots of similar tweets
 
Can't read "UNLV" on a recruits list (when ISU has been omitted) and not get mad anymore.
Agreed and it's not even because of Vaughn really it's just frustrating that good players would want to play somewhere that's underachieved with top talent so much that isn't in a major conference. I don't usually like to imply cheating but if there were one place I would it'd be UNLV.
 
Don't think they are cheating. It's more just a school known to get guys to the nba where you can be in a cool locale and be a lazy ***. If a kid hopes to win a title, he would never go there. But if they just need a place to chill for a year before cashing that check, why not just hang in Vegas?

I believe UNLV has some NCAA title history that ISU doesn't have.

Agreed it's just that I hate that just because a few guys went there then on to the NBA they are now known for getting guys to the NBA when in reality those guys could've gone anywhere & been drafted. I think it also says just as much that they've had this NBA talent but have been unable to succeed with it. To me, it says a lot about a kid if he goes to UNLV.
 
oh yeah, that's cool. I heard the shorts were really short back in those days too. . .But they won't be winning any with Dave rice as coach. They couldn't win a game in the tourney with the number one draft pick so I feel rather comfortable standing by what I said.

Most posters appreciate if you are going to post links to premium articles you let them know so they don't click only to find out they can't read it.
Sorry will do in the future. Didn't realize it was a premium article b/c I am able to read most Scout articles on my phone even though I am not suscribed for some reason & I don't really think about it too much. I usually try to include any news in the article like I did with the quote from his dad.

I can't believe baagoe would steal 3 seconds of my life like that. I clicked on the link thinking I was going to be able to read this awesome article and just like that it was taken away. Such a roller coaster of emotions.
