Agreed, to me, it seems like Garrett, Stinnett, and McFarland would be the best combination of players. Yes, it would be nice to have leuer but I dont want to get my hopes up.

lennon3 · 07-12-2006, 10:12 PM

And we can't forget we already picked up Brackins so adding him to what ever combination it ends up being makes for very, very solid recruiting class.

Jeremy, I'm sorry, but ever since you reported that Tyler Sash was a "silent commit" to the Cyclones I have a hard time getting too excited over this stuff. Sash is going to be a Hawk, and NEVER committed to ISU, silently or otherwise.

That ONE story was confirmed by somebody within ISU and I have not used that person as a source since that story. I apologize for being wrong and hope you didn't go and place a bet on it in Vegas. I guess I would feel worse if you were paying for my services. I can only be as good as my sources, thankfully I have a current correct to incorrect ratio of 96% correct. That isn't too shabby for free information:)

Ernie did post that wager within the gambling communiity...and now lives in a dark..dank...second floor apartment above the hardware store in Oskaloosa...his only substance being mildy cheese and stale ritz. With the lone lightbulb burning deep into the night...Ernie bides the time to pounce on the next email that Jeremy dares to post on his own board...sitting there in his soiled..flea riddled...yellowish undergarments. He waits patiently for Jeremy's next revalation to make it's internet appearence...alternating between the three various Cyclone web-sites...and the other dedicated to mail-order Slavic women. Be afraid Jeremy...Ernie is waiting around every corner on the web....with baited breath with the slight scent of cucumbers...and itchy keyboard fingers.

...or he could really be in his campus dorm room hanging eight on two hotties.

Another thing I would like about your wish list, lennon, is that that would be a huge lineup. We'd have guys starting that are 6'5, 6'3, 6'5, Maybe Wesley Johnson at 6'8. I mean that is a huge backcourt that would cause problems just because of the size mismatches. Defensivly that would be a major advantage.

Cutting edge information of this type is never going to be 100% so why the need to bust Jeremy's chops? Other sites are wrong just as much, if not more often, and they even post at a slower rate; it is just the nature of the game when you want inside scoops.

Add me to the chorus. I think these three players are the best options for ISU when considering our needs and Brackins coming in.

Wesley · 07-13-2006, 11:08 PM

I just hope we have one rebounder on the team. Even a Paul Shirley clone would be nice. Or a Loren Meyers clone. Or a Don Smith clone. Or a Cato clone. Well, you get the picture. To be better we need one top flight rebounder besides people like Will and Curtis who were our top rebounders last year. 6.5 board a game from a center would be nice.

goonies_89 · 07-15-2006, 03:04 AM

I think the next big clone will be craig brackins.

root4clones · 07-16-2006, 11:00 AM

Jeremy, have you been able to confirm the other possible offer on the table?

Jeremy · 07-16-2006, 01:33 PM

I ended up having a death in the family so I was not able to follow up on much towards the end of the week and thus I have been trying to catch up this afternoon. I will post a new roundup here tonight that clarifies a few things:)
