I just saw this tweet from @davetelep

Iowa State visitors this weekend: Georges "The Boston Bouncer" Niang, Nkereuwem Okoro and Naz Long, a Canadian. Boston, NYC, Canada.
Iowa State seems to be hitting the east coast pipe line pretty hard in these upcoming classes (more than just these three). I kind of hoped that Fran would have made this a point of emphasis when he started recruiting to Iowa when he first arrived. Someone on the staff obviously has a connection to the ATL area but everything else seems to be Iowa or scattered across Big Ten land.
I am not slamming the '12 class or anything with this post. I am just trying to see what people think of his overall strategy in recruiting to Iowa? Is it what you expected? Do you like it? Other thoughts? It seems like the kid who ended up at Clemson (Coleman) was the last East Coaster that Iowa had a lot of interest in and that was when Fran first arrived. Lay down yours thoughts my people as I am jacked that it is finally hoops season.
