Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Saturday

Sorry to blur this a bit, from the reports Nader is the best player currently on the roster, I would be surprised to see him not start ahead of Hogue next year, not to downplay Hogue's contribution this year, but I see him as more of first in hustle player off the bench. The lineup and depth is scary good.... Makes me think there may be some other opening possible because of lack of mins, Gibson, SDW, not saying they will , but KJ saw the writing on the wall.....

It was never said that Nader was the best player on the team.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Saturday

The announcers in the game last night probably referenced ISU's NBA style offense about 10 times. That type of rep will help us get guys like Vaughn and other high quality recruits. What future NBA player wouldn't want to play in an NBA style offense?

Damn this Vaughn recruitment feels like Okie State game last night. Are we on 3rd OT yet? Let's finish strong and win him over.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Saturday

But wouldn't you still WANT to? Considering that would be his decision for college you'd think he'd take any opportunity to get down there, especially when it's paid for by UNC.

I'm playing out scenarios in my head like a crazy person. One is that deep down he's always wanted to go to UNC - who wouldn't given the banners and jerseys in the rafters - and he's come to the decision he's always known. Trip or no trip although he could still go on the trip I guess. The other commanding scenario in my head is he watched Fred let Naz tie the game with complete confidence when he's been struggling. True players coach - I'm going to Iowa State.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Saturday

Just like our OSU football win...we get so much more than a number in the 'W' column after last night's victory. Dividends about to come flooding ISU's way.

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Saturday

I thought this as well, but if he really wanted to go to UNC, why not just wait a week, take the trip, then announce? A week isnt all that far.
Or announce now and still go on a celebratory visit? But like cydkar alluded to, being logical about recruiting gets you a swift kick to the feels.

May not be anything, but I saw over the weekend that there are rumblings about UNC starting to go after Peyton Allen, an emerging 2014 SG/SF from IL. Also, we have not had any type of back-up guard prospect emerged.

I believe Roy recently visited him; mid month. Man, Roy has gotten us countless times before and if he does it again :mad:

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Saturday

I know people already know this but I just enjoy seeing it typed out

Morris-Thomas-Vaughn-Niang-McKay
Hogue-Long-Nader

We have such a rock-solid 8 man rotation

Re: Rashad Vaughn - Announcing Saturday

Seems like most parents would still want to go see where their son was going to go to school and play basketball, even if they were OK with him making that decision prior to the visit.

I understand the history that makes people nervous about that UNC tweet, but it really reads more like RV's parents saying that if he was comfortable closing the book on UNC without getting his parent's impressions on a visit, they were cool with it too. I'd be WAY more nervous about it if that visit hadn't been cancelled.

@AdamZagoria: In talking to a few coaches, sounds like Iowa State or UNLV for @ShowtimeMr
