Stokes will choose between Iowa, TCU, and Colorado St. According to NY Post & Hawk Central.

Well that is some good news. Maybe we still have a chance even though we haven't heard anything for awhile with him.

not impressed with stokes...

 

[CAARHawk]

Gotta believe Iowa is in the Driver's seat there.

Have you seen him play quite a bit?

We can only hope

I will be more disappointed if we lose to these schools than I am with the other recruits we have lost. Not necessarily because I like stokes a lot, but we should definitely be able to compete with TCU and colorado state...

 

[Hawkeye11en1]

I went to 2 of those schools. I must say, those Texas girls that make their way to CSU are pretty nice. Iowa had them beat tho

 

[ISUhawk]

So Hayden, if you don't like him, who should we get???

 

[deanvogs]

Are we even still actively recruiting him? I thought I read before that we cooled on him. I don't know either way, just wondering if anyone in the know can update us on him.

It's amazing to me that the Hawks are still in on a number of these guys. Just when doom and gloomers were ready to write the recruiting season off, it still appears we are in on Stokes, Hubbard, Katenda, Glover, Olaseni, and Katenda. There's still the outside chance of Carter as well.

It appears, right now anyway, Fran will fill his schollies with decent players. One of TOS indicates "Stokes Makes Grade" as the title for a pay article. Did he just qualify?

There's TWO Katenda's?! By God, there's no way we don't get Katenda now!!!

I could see an argument for Glover over Stokes, I personally want stokes though. As long as we get one of the two I'll be happy with our PG situation next year.

Not impressed with you not being impressed.

Finalist for Mr. Basketball in New York City - we could do much much worse.
Plus two players in two years from New York, that would be a nice pipe line for the future.

Yeah I don't know Haydens not impressed though.

 

[HawkeyeShane]

Colorado State offered??? We have no chance now...this staff needs to be re-evaluated...

TCU is in the big east now, and the kid is from New York, if he goes to TCU don't read too much into it.

I thought TCU had 1 more year before they join the Big East.

Football is one thing, but that basketball road schedule is going to be brutal. I know it is a Texas religious school, which means they cheat (although they cheat for God, so it is okay), but man it is going to be tough for these kids have much presence in the classroom during the season.
