2023 Basketball Recruiting

[wondergrape]

I’m a little confused. It doesn’t sound like he wants to play this year but he’s immediately eligible…but doesn’t want to play for Texas Tech when their coach wants him to which is when he’d be eligible for other teams.

Somebody gave him money, and he liked it, so he wants more people to give him money.

 

[The Full Monte]

I'm here to entertain you.

But you don’t. You’re not entertaining at all. You’re miserable.

I have the same problem.

Boyz, there is something to this. Stay tuned.

What’s the “thing”?

That if they got him they might have beat Iowa State by 30 and not just 19?

Sounds like they needed him more last year then

Sorry, don't remember that.

Another big would be nice. Other than that, I’m more encouraged after tonight that while it may be a rebuilding year next year, they may not be complete dogshit without Kris.

 

[CamelTones]

As of right now it’s probably fair to assume at least 2 players enter the portal. Fran will have to find a forward with one of those scholarships.

Who are the guys transferring?
Big Josh again and who….Perkins?

Antonio Ramos.

You don’t have time to be posting. All work, bro.

I always have time for you.

I think it's just more of what college sports are now. A player doesn't need to be disgruntled to transfer. So maybe Perkins, maybe Ulis, Mulvey or even Bowen. I don't think it makes sense for Bowen to leave, but you can't be surprised anymore.

So Josh and probably someone else seems like a safe prediction.

He tried to leave last year and no one wanted him?

I guess we don't know that, but probably something near it.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Nobody he wanted wanted him

Not sure Josh has value as he can't stay on the court even when healthy. He's better off just getting a degree and leaving at this point.

 

[The Incredible Hawk]

Yeah I am assuming there were plenty of mid majors or DII schools that would have taken him. He probably thought another power 5 would pick him up.

[Revolver]

How coincidental that the Buzz Aldrin thread was bumped so close to the posting of this video he recorded from outer space.

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Thought this was going to be the Omaha Biliew dunk from last night that all my cyclone buddies sent me of him "pwning Pryce"

 

[Hawk_Kegmasters]

That was an impressive Omaha dunk, in the open court with 30 seconds left up 20. The Omaha vs Pryce matchup was essentially a wash. Pryce did swat Omaha’s shit 4 times. The game was decided by everyone not named Pryce going 0% from 3, and everyone not named Omaha going 7-10 from 3.

The only highlights I've seen are dunks. I'm sure he can do other things.

 

[Hawk_Kegmasters]

He can shoot pretty well. 37% from 3 but I’ve never seen him make one that wasn’t straight on from the top of the key.

He was 0 for about 100 at Ankeny but he was really good at flopping. It got to the point that refs were allowing him to be violently raped because they were sick of the flops.

He was 2-5 last night but one was a brick that hit the back right side of the iron, bounced up 10 feet and somehow dropped right in. Then he gave the MJ shrug for 5 seconds.

 

[Hawkstrat]

Freeman looks good, Harding is so small.

 

[Hawk_Kegmasters]

Some stats for no good reason. I guess they’re relevant comparisons because the guys are playing the same competition. Clearly Billiew is the better athlete and prospect, but Pryce stacks up pretty well.

Pryce Sandfort
25.1 PPG
11.3 RPG
3.1 APG
1.9 SPG
3.1 BPG
2.1 TO/G

Omaha Billiew

[L. Wade Childress]

Omaha has a big lead in career earnings.

 

[BBK]

Freeman looks good, Harding is so small.

Moline (#4 in 4A) lost 67-66 to Simeon (#1 in 3A).

Moline's only 2 loses in state this year have been to Simeon and Mount Carmel, which are always two of the best programs in the state

 

[hawkeyealum]

Freeman looks good, Harding is so small.

Looks like he can go right or left, can't see if his hops are Woodburyish or better.

And career Halo posts where mentioned by eclone.

And shoutouts from Peyton Manning.

Billiew leads in layups allowed after doing a windmill dunk

Billiew leads in layups allowed after doing a windmill dunk

To be fair, in Iowa he would probably lead in that stat if it happened once.
