Which recruiting service still has Connor over ranked? 247's own rank has him at like 220

Rivals: McCaffery National Rank 112, Lewis National Rank 116
247: McCaffery Composite: .9326 National Rank 113, Lewis Composite: .9291 National Rank 120
As has been pointed out here numerous times by cyclone posters, 247 composite is the gold standard around here.

Scout has him a 4 star and Lewis a 3 star. They have Wigginton 65 too which will be changed with the next update whenever that will be

I know but i'm looking at the numbers and seeing an outlier with McCaffery, considering 247 not composite has him as the 220th ranked player.

Where's the Upper Iowa kid at?

I haven't seen Lewis play, so I don't know how good he is. Most experts rank Connor higher, are the Hawk homers?

You've seen Connor play and you're impressed? That's pretty exactly opposite of what my Hawkeye friends have said that went and watched him before
 
HawkeyeMashup said:
Ok? Virtually the same ranking and COnnor higher than both of them. Your point is exactly what? So I'm an homer for wanting the higher ranked kid walking on?

I can guarantee you barring injury Terrence Lewis will have a better college basketball career than Connor. There's talk about Connor not even playing basketball because he hasn't developed since he started off ranked so high. The son of the U of I basketball coach who was once considered a 5 star recruit didn't get Mr. Basketball in Iowa and lost it to a kid going to Upper Iowa is not better than the best player in the state of Wisconsin

WHere did I say that? I said Hawk fans aren't excited by Connor. I'll defer to the experts tho as they say he is better than Lewis. Therefore I'll take Connor as a walk on instead of using a scholarship for an even lower ranked kid this year.

You'd rather take a worse player than give a better player a scholarship. Hopefully Fran goes 14 deep next year

Don't call me a homer for liking a walk on recruit who is rated higher. Good for Lewis if he turns out great.

You're a homer because you know Lewis is better than Connor and you're hanging out to the scholarship thing like that's a deal breaker. Connor started out a high 4 or 5 star recruit and has tumbled ever since.

And is still higher than Lewis. DOnt get
Mad at me, I don't rank these kids.
 
With so many great players on Iowa's team next year, will how will Fran find away to get them all minutes? We know he likes to play 12 players a game will he play 14 deep next year?

I understand that, their conference SOS had to be a joke, playing an unbalanced schedule in a league that bad. I guess you can give them 2 of the Florida wins as the reason they got in over Iowa, a 9 seed is way too high though.

Unbalanced schedule in a bad conference. Sounds like the Big 10.

Over the last 5 or 6 years the ISU player has always turned out to be a better player. Why all of a sudden will that change?
