I think a lot of players will be saying the same thing about White before he is done here.

Excellent point

Sounds like White has a lot of respect for Gatens. Couldn't ask for a better role model for the young players on this team.

White is about as good as it gets. If Fran gets more players like him, you won't have to worry too much about Iowa basketball.

AW is the best teammate I never had!

Agreed. I can see White taking on a leadership role as early as next year and being one of the leaders for the next 3 years. Has a great attitude and work ethic to go with those skills.

I'm just waiting for his Stanzi moment. This kid is gonna be all world very soon...

Another answer that I liked from Aaron during his interview with Garman was when Andy asked him if he watched the NCAA Selection Show and Aaron said that he did, but it wasn't the same as when he was a kid, watching to see if his favorite team was going to make it and where...he then went on to say this season would be the last time he watches that won't include seeing where the Hawks are going.

Fran ain't getting any others like White. A dominant Red Headed American comes along maybe once a decade in the Big Ten. The last was Drew Naymick, but I wouldn't count on us getting two of them. Ever.

Aaron is a consistent outside shot away from being a dominate player.

He gets a lot of open looks because other bigs are not used to being out there. If he can start knocking those down consistently he will cause big problems for other teams.

Yeah. What Woodyk1 said.

I think it moved.
