[L. Wade Childress]

This is exactly why I hire people like you. Thanks.

I went on Monday to watch Solon play Storm Lake. Coon is going to be really good. Very athletic and skilled.

Watched the ADM/Xavier game before and ADM is damn good.

How good is Lorensen?

 

[AZmessDAWG]

How good is Lorensen?

He’s really good. I think he’s going to UIU?

He had over 30 points for sure. Scored multiple times finishing with either hand in traffic. A little undersized but damn good.

Speaking of innuendos. Where did you get that Ben was tampering with him?

Reaction pod upcoming?

He made it up.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

I ended up never doing that. Good memory though!!!!

38 I believe. And no way he’s 6-1.

crazy fun game.

that wasn’t really innuendo.

 

[Lee Beevers]

I fucking hope Ben or Iowa is in Coon’s ear. That kid can play. Iowa state is bankrupt, might as well take advantage and see if he doesn’t want to be in Omaha.

I forget nothing remember that

What the fuck was it then, you ass hat?

He has a lot of Glen Worley in his game.

He's not the big Ben needs, nor a guard. There's a top 100 forward redshirting this year, and another one incoming.

Guards. Hawks need guards. Guards.

The AD is but they have NIL donors

 

[Hawk&Balls]

The AD is what

 

[CamelTones]

He’s a class behind but hopefully they’re in Chase Branhams ear that playing for D-Rock would be career suicide.

Guards. Hawks need guards. Guards.

That is a fair point. But with 15 scholarships you figure it out later. Reminds me of a much taller Eric May, to the point that I wonder why he’s not playing football.

 

[B19Rob]

Keep an eye on Wake Forest commit Quentin Coleman. He chose Wake over Iowa this fall and has been shooting up the rankings. Steve Forbes is almost assuredly getting canned this year, so I could see Iowa getting involved again.

I saw this guy decommitted from Wake Forest last week. I'm sure Iowa will try to get involved again, but he's a borderline 5-star recruit now and it will be tough to land him if Kansas, etc get involved.

Broke

 

[HiawathaHawk]

Supposedly backed out because he wanted more money than originally agreed to. Expected to be Kansas, Texas Tech, Illinois and likely heading to highest bidder.

[jandj]

I love all of you!! even @26.2

 

[KitKatApples]

 

[hawkeyealum]

Does Iowa have a realistic shot of flipping coons? McDermott was already planning to retire at the end of the 26-27 season so I’m not sure if retiring a year early really impacts him much

coaching Owen Freeman probably made Greg hate his job

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Do we need Coons? Koch, Sage, Harris; We kind of seem set there.

 

[hawkeyealum]

Maybe not but I thought I read somewhere he could play SG too.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Do we need Coons? Koch, Sage, Harris; We kind of seem set there.

He’s athletic and physically ready right now. Is a better shooter than Sage and I think you meant Howard. He can play either wing position.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

I didn't mean howard

 

[Hawkstrat]

I think he fits more into the big guard role than the others.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

I didn't mean howard

Oh.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Yeah I don’t seeing him playing on the interior too much.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

A more athletic Kenyon.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

It seems to me like he’s going to outgrow a wing role but who knows. He looks like a future all pro TE.

 

[Mysterio]

ben played sage at the 2 with koch, davis, and alvaro for a bit. if u have a skilled pg its easier to get away with playing a little bigger

 

[Mysterio]

sage howard koch alvaro harris thompson all guys that would probably be looking for the same minutes at coon. but if he wants to come to iowa u find him a spot

 

[AZmessDAWG]

I mean the other thing we have to consider is maybe we already have a lead PG but he was hurt this year.

He already signed with Creighton.

Woops. Didn’t see McDermott was retiring immediately.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I see what’s going on here

 

[L. Wade Childress]

He already signed with Creighton.

supposed BMC is still working on him.

 

[Dr. Zaius]

supposed BMC is still working on him.

He grew up in the same town didn’t he?

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Yes. But I also heard he’s getting $1.2mm per from them.

 

[bihtime]

My friend in Storm Lake is guessing Coons will flip to Iowa. He likes McCollum a lot, but felt like he had to honor his commitment to McDermott.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Didn’t he commit after they hired Huss?

I am choosing to believe this, and I’m looking into it
