Hoping for the best and expecting the worst, which will actually be the name of my memoir about life as an Iowa State fan.
Wigginton declaring for NBA Draft, not hiring agent
- Thread starter DSM4Cy
- Start date
i think it just means he's a young kid trying to make the most important decision of his life to this point.
That's not the case at all. Several reports have said he talks to Prohm nearly daily. All CW said is Iowa State doesn't know of his decision yet. That is probably because Lindell doesn't know his decision yet.
Chris didn't say Lindell isn't talking to the ISU staff at all... he's just saying Lindell hasn't told them with certainty what he will choose to do. I would think/hope Lindell talks to the staff to get their thoughts and to talk about the upcoming season if he were to return (without pressuring either way)
The way some of you are handling this makes me worried how you will handle real problems in your own life. SMH
Totally agree, but I will say this feels like a significant moment for the basketball team's future. There are a lot of teams out there with good histories that struggle with rebuilds. Last year wasn't enjoyable, but for the most part it was understandable. However, if you languish around the bottom 1/3rd of the Big 12 for too long you lose all the momentum the last 5-6 years got us. That's why next year is so important to reestablish ourselves, and with Lindell we have a great shot at doing that. Without him, boy those transfers are going to have to be really darn good.
Or, and this is a big or (it really isn't), that he isn't doing it for himself and he wants to provide for his family. You know, like a lot of upper tier athletes do.
True. It's going to be a tough go for me either way. I live out of state, in B1G country, so when someone asks me why I'm burning a couch, I'll have to repeat 'I-O-WA State' from my explanation, when they confuse it for OSU.
Just like at the bars for a game watch. Jerks.
Sources are telling me Wigginton ate Wheaties this morning while watching NBA TV on his new Medicom cable account, FWIW.
Checking this thread for the first time since yesterday...
How about this: He stays, and announces his decision by tweeting out a picture of himself in the new football uniforms. Two birds with one stone.
