Tyus Jones / Jahlil Okafor a package deal?

Doesn't Royce White, a Minnesota native, owe coach Hoiberg a big favor?

Carrying ISU to a 3rd place finish in the Big 12 and an NCAA tournament first round win...paid in full.

And why would we NOT have a chance for a top rated prospect? We ARE IOWA STATE and our coach is FRED HOIBERG.

Kinda thought we had a chance at Tyus. This really puts a damper on my hopes of landing him.

Its impolite to ask a question and then give the correct answer before anyone else has an opportunity to guess.

We don't have a chance for this particular pair.

We are Iowa State. Uh, yeah, that's the reason.

One never knows, though.....see Harrison Barnes.

Ummmm...who cares?

You stick the trophy in your case, hand the banners, and go sign another one.

We are at least a couple of years away from competing from packages like this, but we certainly don't need top 10 players to have highly successful seasons. If we can land 2 post players that can defend, rebound and dunk to go with MM and MT, we are going to have a very bright future.
