How do you have a recruiting setback. You start with 0 and if you end up with 0 that is equal. It would suck, but setback is not the right word.

I now predict Matt Thomas will go 20 for 20 from the three point line next year against Iowa, the last one he wears a blind fold. Dumb to consider any kid a bust after his freshman years, just dumb.

Huff will sit out next season, so it doesn't really affect next year, but I agree very important to get him in the fold.

If the cubs did not tank the last two years they don't have Bryant and the #4 pick this year which I am guessing will be a pretty legit pitching prospect. In the next two years we will see a big wave of prospects. It's not like the cubs haven't tried for FA either. Anibal Sanchez simply...

Or you simply don't understand the plan, the restrictions of the purchase, and the attempts they have made to sign attractive FAs? I'm leaning more toward what I said rather than what you said. Building a consistent winner long term is more important to me as a fan than building a team that...

Good for you. Ignorance is bliss.

I thought he was 2015, but I am just going off what was said on here so I don't know if that is right or wrong.

If they get Atwood and Huff they will have used both scholarships for the 2014 class. Next year if they get Hutton and Hall I don't think they are necessarily done. I think it would depend on the player they would get. I could see them taking a PG or a pure SG. In 2015 Dickerson will be a...

I believe Hall is a 2015 player correct? They still have 2 ships that season, but Fran needs to take the best player he can get whether it is a FR or JUCO or other transfer. I would like to see Hall along with Hutton so Hutton can continue to work on his offensive game.

There are two scholarships left in this class and Atwood and Huff would take those. Hutton would take 1 in the 2015 class. Those that think offering Thaddeus Hall means no Atwood should remember if Iowa were to get Huff, Hall, and Atwood that would not be that big of a deal. Atwood is really...

There are 2 ships open and Atwood only has 2 years of eligibility left. Why not go for Huff, who has to sit next season, but has 2 years after that. The scholarship is open and I bet Fran would love to have a guy with Huff's ability on his team as well as Atwood's. They aren't the same player...

He would have to sit a year and would be able to play the following season. IMO I would think getting him and Atwood would be huge gets for Iowa. That would finish up this class and leave 2 scholarships for the following season.

They are not in the same class. One's a sophomore, ones a freshman. If Ulis wants to come you take both and figure it out. Ulis could possibly red shirt. Now would he do that, I doubt it, but you never know. It's not impossible, it's unlikely but I wouldn't say Fran wouldn't take Ulis if...

I don't know if it is that simple. with Meyer leaving there are two scholarships open so you take the best players you can get at this point and Ulis would be one of them if he wants to come, but I don't think that will be an issue.

Derrick Willies has been said to be playing really well, but still makes the freshman mistake. I also am excited to see what Mitchell and Harris can do in Davis's system. Iowa has some big bodies like Smith, Hillyer, and Willies, but also a lot of speed/quick guys (Scheel, Harris, Mitchell)...

I would love to have Ulis, but that ship has sailed, I hope he does well because that means Fran was recruiting a good player. Never want to see them fail. I hope Dickerson does even better for Iowa. My question is, what if not all the guys KY expects to go pro do it. What if some stay. Are...

First of all if all he needs to be is open to get his shot up that's fine if it is a good shot. How many wide open 3s did the hawks miss last year? I would think with Dickerson he would head to MSU, but I don't know what their class looks like, did they get a PG. I really doubt it was the...

I would consider the invite/call due to Patrick's health a "special reason". I only saw a picture and did not know what the circumstances of the meeting were. Didn't know if Fran knew CP3 or what. It was not meant to be anything concerning from my end, just curious what the reasoning for the...

Why did this meeting happen? I mean was there a special reason?

This is exactly why sac bunts are not great in major league baseball. You only have 27 outs and you need to utilize them the best you can. If it is the 9th inning and a guy on 2nd, no outs, tied game, down 1, then yes go for it. But 6th inning, man on 1st or 2nd and you bunt with the #2...
