I'm surprised he doesn't already have more offers.

Lock him up!!!! He’s still growing for peats sake!!! Could be Iowa’s version of Kevin Durant?!? A kid like that in the big town of Osky. That’s crazy. Sounds like the seed has been planted and Iowa has a head start on getting him but man we are a long ways till 2020… Somebody keep Roy Williams out of the state too please…

 

[meaning]

The weirdest part for me: My university is starting to offer kids my son's age.

Even though it had to happen, I can't help but feel blindsided by this turn of events.

 

[SteveGarvey1]

Better get this kid for sure.

 

[Tierney]

I'm sure the guy definitely has potential. Hopefully, it will all work out for him both as a player and a person.

Wow this kid oozes big time potential. The Duke's, Kentucky's, MSU's, etc. are going to be rolling into town before long.

 

[ArvadaHawk]

All this kid has to do is get stronger and not regress, and he's a B1G talent. Wow...15 years old. Sheesh. I'm starting to think the early signing period isn't early enough.

I know iowa state isn't a big time program, but I read where they were in to see him tonight.

Soooo much time before this kid signs, but his coach and his family (alumni) are very positive towards Iowa and XF appears to be a Hawk fan. It's a positive thing right now for Iowa.

Mark my words..this kid is nothing but trouble for Iowa.

 

[BigD]

Just remember Grandpa knows best.

He is a freshmen? Where do these kids grow up? Near the Palo nuclear plant? Lol

Is this a foster kid joke?

What's the over/under in months until we see Roy's mug in the Osky area? 2.5 months?

This kid might be something really special. Glad we're the front runners. Just hope if he really busts out, he remembers that he's a Hawkeye fan and doesn't fall victim to the bright lights of Durham and Lexington.

Why?

 

[Tierney]

Why?

I think he meant that this kid is nothing but trouble for Iowa state after he gets to Iowa.

I think we are good just as long as Fran keeps winning.

 

[BigD]

I'm surprised he doesn't already have more offers.

Either that boy is really tall or his classmate is really short and got held back in the seventh grade forty times.

I think we are good just as long as Fran keeps winning.

Fran has been a Winner EVERYWHERE he has gone. That has continued at Iowa, and will continue. With what we just brought in, and have coming in the next several years, the future looks bright. Hopefully blinding... It isn't going to slow down, count on it. I would order a pair of shades. I'm that confident.

Go Hawks!
