Addressing the Wes Staten Rumors

[ChrisMWilliams]

There are numerous rumors floating around cyberspace that Wes Staten, a 2012 Iowa State basketball commit via Sioux City West has had a change of heart.

It's been brought to my attention that Staten allegedly posted something on his Facebook page last night about this.

From what I've been able to dig up this morning, Staten is still verbally commited to Iowa State. I'll keep you guys posted, should I hear anything else in the coming days.

Interesting. Duke stay the hell away.

what was the facebook update?

[Nuts4Cy]

Didn't he unoffically visit UNC with a teammate over the summer?

He's gone. I have no inside info, but we're ISU. He's gone.

Hate to say this...but I agree with you...it just seems to work that way!

With all the FB recruits rolling in it is about time we get brought back down to reality. This is ISU.

I sure hope not.

The good news is that there is still plenty of time to get some other great recruits for 2012. Having a big season this year will surely help.

If we can get Marcus Paige in place of him, then I wont be too upset.

I read it on the internet though. It has to be true!

[ISUFan22]

Regardless of this outcome, recruiting is like herding cats.

Usually "if" it is written by the person there is at least some reason to look into it and believe there is something to be concerned about

[Cydkar]

We want both Paige and Staten...lethal.

Another Sioux City kid to KU?

Regardless of this outcome, recruiting is like herding cats.

That put a hilarious mental image in my head.
