It was comments in a 247 chat. And Elliot on HB just said IU, ILL, KU out and maybe IN in it still. I just dont see him leaving Iowa if he isnt going to KU or CU. JMO.

And supposedly JD and PS recently started following Bennett on social media.

Absolutely.
Honest question but because I have not seen him play much but what about Banks is so intriguing? Looks like he may rebound well but seems too small to play forward and not a good enough shooter for a guard.

He’s not a guard, just listed that way for whatever reason. 6’7, very good athlete, very good rebounder, very good defender who can guard several positions. Plays off Stirtz really well in pick and roll. Draws a ton of fouls.

I think he’s the easiest transition to the Big Ten other than Stirtz. Showed in the tournament games he belongs athletically and physically. Manyawu can be a good role player but might be a tweener. Howard has the body and athleticism and was just a freshman. If he improves his shot he could be really solid.

Banks is the one we want- guessing other schools realize this so it’s taking longer.

Out of curiosity - is it just Traore's basketball sense that wouldn't let him figure into McCollum's strategy? Seems to have the athleticism.

probably a combination of lack of talent, a year of coaching from Fran, and skin color.

Creighton. Either Dix or RealKingBeans is lying.

Freeman and Dix lead Creighton to the sweet 16!

You can deny this in a court of law that you and Moe are on the same page here. Moe doesn't care about tournaments next year, probably a good idea to make the Big though. Franny Ball looked fun, however in the end you got to have athletes to complete the entire deal, offense/defense/rebounding etc. Or you're off to NIT heaven or the Crown!

When I learned that he participated in Tik Tok dance videos with Harding, I was done with him. Go suck a fat one and stuff, loser.
