Harrison Barnes ranks 2nd behind Sullinger, but look who got 9 pts...

ESPN Injuries could play role in Mr. Basketball selection -ESPN Rise BOYSBASKETBALL

This has to be a joke, none of Lick's recruits are that good. We are bottom of the barrel leftovers. We don't even make a doggybag.

Congrats to Ben!

Do the players on the court the other night count as "licks recruits", because I could make a decent argument that they aren't that good...

Hmm....

BTW, Brust isn't even a 150 on most hoops scouting sites.

People who are saying our recruiting isn't very good aren't in denial at all.

"BTW, Brust isn't even a 150 on most hoops scouting sites."

Could this be because he broke his ankle last year???

He sure looks like a top 100 recruit.

How golden clad are these LOIs?

Not applicable.

Brust is a Hawkeye through and through.

I think Brust is coming and when you're dealing with a lack of talent even a guy that might not be a "150" can make a world of difference.

I'm guessing if we had Harrison Barnes coming to Iowa he would be overrated too? We would say how it is only Iowa high school basketball and doesn't translate to the Big 10.

Brust appears to be putting up big numbers. Without ever seeing him play or who he has played against I will wait to see how good he is. Someone must have seen something good in him to get some votes. Hopefully his play will work well for Iowa in the Big 10.
