Can we get a "fart noise" rating button please?

Maybe they did try to do this, but he insisted on an earlier visit, which led to the parting. I don't know why you assume the staff didn't already try that.
Minny media getting round to the news.
@DWolfsenKSTP Further on McKinley Wright: Iowa St. targeting others too. Worth pointing out that the split is mutual. Can only help Pitino, etc. #gophers
Assuming this is from wright's side sounds reasonable that Prohm told him he'd not accept a early commitment due to other players and both moved on. The side that was rejected usually says it was mutual.

Whatever the reason, someone else is going to get a good player. I get having higher targets on the board, but with this many open scholarships, he seemed worthy of one of them. I'll trust Prohm on this one, but it is a bit confusing from the outside looking in
Just with the number of open scholarships, and how important it is to have good guard play. I would think he would be worthy of a scholarship if they've been after him this long, and the other offers he has from quality programs. But like I said, I'll trust Prohm on this.
Obviously the staff is only going to sign one PG in this recruiting class, didn't matter if we had 2 or 6 scholarships available. Seems to me some people forget Jackson will be a senior PG in 2017/18. It has also been mentioned that Babb practiced some as a PG last year and was a pretty good assist guy in the CCL over the summer.
Our bigger need in this class is perimeter shooters and scorers with the graduation of Thomas, Burton and Mitrou-Long. My guess if we could sign McNeill, Lewis, Feazell, a HS PG or CG and two JUCO wing scorers, Prohm will feel he has a pretty solid roster for 2017/18.
I really doubt the staff plans on adding 6 freshman in one class. Prohm will need some minutes contributors from this class next year. Probably acombination of 3 freshman and 3 transfers/JC players.
Not knocking Wright he has potential to play at a high major but realistically he is a couple of years away from B12 ready like most players with his type of rating. No point for him or Prohm to sign and just to sit on the bench just on the possibility he develops. In the meanwhile CSP would be recruiting others to take his role for 2 years ending up in a transfer out.
Spot on. I feel like some people are reacting to this as if we are planning on signing 6 high schoolers and/or 6 early signing period guys.
FWIW, I'm hearing ISU will try to add two or three in the fall, then go heavy JUCO, immediately eligible transfers in the spring. Perhaps a sit out transfer too.
Makes sense. We have to find 2-3 immediate starters. I hope we can get Davion Cole-Johnson. He looks like an explosive guard.
Finding a forward that can handle the ball and create offense will be important too.
