Anyone hyping Kirby was because our history in the draft at that time was so awful aside from a guy here or there that we reached and searched for anyone. I am glad we are where we are now because we can have more realistic talks about guys being drafted and not have to stretch beyond reason to think a certain player might get drafted.
Does every fanbase overhype their potential draft picks?

If NBA success means lottery commercials with the Iowa Wolves, then yeah..... the KXNO/WHO hype train could out of control.
I’m not sure the reason for posting this thread, did you think TJ was going to be a first rounder or something?
Brock Purdy & Allen Lazard were criminally underrated on draft day.
Will McDonald IV (so far) didn't justify his being picked in 1st round.
Montgomery & Hall both could've/should've gone earlier too in hindsight.
But yes, every team overrates their players and even the "experts" truly never know who will translate or not.
Tampa II should be drafted here in 2nd (probably right) or 3rd round at latest.

Yes, although I will say I think I tempered my expectations after watching the Tampa vs Worthy matchup in Ames. I guess looking back worthy only went 4/77 but watching it, I felt like he outclassed Tampa that night
Tampa is going to be a steal. I didn’t see any other corner in the big 12 shift the field like he did. Lack of stats is because nobody threw at him….worthy had a couple nice moves on him, but worthy did that to everyone.
I always under hype out guys. The only two I over hyped was Hakeem Butler and Lazard. I didn’t think Brock had any chance of getting drafted.
