We might do a little better at recruiting if we had a five-star hotel full of whores and liquor at the Ames airport.
Oh calm the hell down. Saying that someone that commits to UNLV doesn't care if he is on a winning team, isn't exactly wrong. UNLV hasn't won in years. So obviously, he likes something other than winning.
Get over yourself, as you would say.What about building a winner? Maybe that was the pitch. The kid did nothing to anyone in our fanbase. He took his time making what is to date the biggest decision of his life. NOBODY on this board can challenge his decision.
But really looking forward to more an more insinuations that the kid and his family are dirty and have no character simply for NOT choosing ISU.
I'll admit I've on my trips to Vegas, I've only been around the strip and the touristy stuff but what else is there to do? Do locals go to the Casinos? Are there any college bars on Fremont St? It's not like Vegas has exclusives on hookers and blow, you can find those everywhere (I've heard)
He's right. We look like whiny little *******.Get over yourself, as you would say.

Maybe he clicked with the coaching staff more? Maybe he had a better relationship with the players? Maybe he thought he could be THE man rather then come here with a brand new PG playing his first high level games, with what appears to be a talented front court already on roster? Maybe he doesn't like of colors. Maybe the faith-based family program isn't what he's looking for?
You'll kill yourself trying to rationalize a decision by a young man you have NOTHING in common with.
He's right. We look like whiny little *******.
Whining about perceived whining. Never change, Cydkar.He's right. We look like whiny little *******.
You are exactly the type of fan that drives me crazy (much as I must drive you crazy!)....any reasonable discussion about another program and how it seems a bit odd that they consistently get top high school players and consistently suck at basketball and how that might not be real legit leads to you getting on your high horse and telling us how great UNLV is and how honorable that whole program is.
Because you demonstrate ZERO ability to think about his situation from anything other than your ISU-centric point of view. If it wasn't UNLV, it would be the hawks, or Kansas, or Texas and the same thread would be the kid doesn't know what he's missing and he only turned us down because of boosters. Lather rinse and repeat.
Sometimes when all you can do is point fingers at others, maybe it's your perspective that needs some perspective.
Is UNLV dirty? Don't know - don't care as it doesn't impact ISU. We'll field a young but talented team next year and those are the one I'm most concerned with.
AGAIN.....he's not demonizing the kid. He's wondering why good players continue to go to a school where they don't win. It's an honest question and you acting like it isn't is kind of odd.
But maybe if he had turned down Gonzaga to go to UNLV, you might wonder the same thing?
Actually, it does affect Iowa State. And your inability to see that is just silly.
It's certainly not the end of the world, who gives a **** in the long run about a juco player. But it would be nice to know why through 2 coaching staffs and zero success, UNLV is getting top talent. It must be that 1991 final four when the player wasn't even alive!
