Twitter recruiting rumors:

[madcityCY]

Today must be the first day of a summer contact period... Twitter scouts are blowing up the TL.

Caught this one on an "Iowa state" search:

@GTuckersports: Iowa State was the first team to call 2013 forward, Kuran Iverson.

He would be awesome. Headliner of a potentially large class for us.

 

[Wesley]

Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.

He would be a good one.

 

[PabloDiablo]

Whoa, shooting big I like it!

Sounds like Fred's recruiting motto is "Go big or go home".

what we need to do is bring him in for a visit when were winning this year. have royce and allen take him under their wings and tell him whats up.

 

[gocubs2118]

Him and Okoro need to visit together, with Okoro committing of course.

Here is another kids we are now after

Steven Haney. He is ranked 68th on rivals. Cornell Mann is recruiting him.

 

[Clones85']

His game reminds me of Kevin Durant's

I assume we're also hot after Niang's '13 teammate? What's his name? Noel? That would be a nice pair for that class. ;wink:

He may not have made it since they didnt show the completion but still.

 

[madcityCY]

Liking our targets so far... Iverson, Haney, Samuel...

@theRecruitScoop: contacted Tyler Ennis (a Canadian). CIA Bounce - isn't Bennett or NWC on this team?

Looks like a selfish player in that video. A pass to yourself off the backboard? Don't get me wrong, he looks like a very good selfish player, but once he gets the ball in his hands, it's not going anywhere else just judging from those clips.

I thought that play showed awareness, creativity, and athleticism. The entire lane was open except for his man - it was probably an iso for him.

But yes, he was taking a lot of outside, difficult shots.
