We saw Tim in Ames Wed. night a Aunt Maudes. He said he was only in town for a 24 hrs. He was with Gary Thompson. I was wondering if Harrison Barnes would be involved with this visit? |

I'm just keeping trust that McD is doing everything he possibly can to get Barnes.

If I interpret you correctly, it means we cannot recruit a 5 star when he is on our doorstep and his Mom works for ISU. However, all McD can do is keep pushing. HB is the real deal.

It's nice to think that we'd all stay and play close to home. Let's be honest. How many of us wanted to leave town when we were 17 or 18 years old?

Johnny Orr kept Fred Hoiberg from sunny Tucson, Arizona. Now Greg McDermott needs to keep Harrison Barnes from sunny Southern California... | |

I understand that Hoiberg stayed. That doesn't mean that anyone else will.

People, McD really has nothing to do with Harrison's decision. IMO, all McD could do is make Harrison NOT want to come to ISU by doing or saying something stupid. However, there really isn't much any coach can do in his situation. HB already knows Ames; he lives there. HB already knows the team; he goes to games, practices, city league. He already knows ISU; his mom works there and lives nearby. This leaves Coach with no selling tools. Seriously, what more can McD do to try to get HB to ISU. The best he can do is have a good relationship with HB, which it sounds like he does. In the end, though, HB is making this decision and it really comes down to this: Do I want to stay in this place I know so well or go elsewhere? I think if you took a poll of high school seniors, you would get a 50/50 split of kids who can't wait to get the hell out of dodge and those who would cry if they had to live somewhere other than their hometown. McD is in a tough position here. He will be judged by many fans based on what HB decides, but his hands are really tied here. He is along for the ride just as much as fans are. If HB decides to come to ISU, IMO, that doesn't make McD a great recruiter. On the flip side, if HB decides to not come to ISU, I don't think that makes McD a poor recruiter. In this case, I think Coach has little effect on what HB decides.
