Playing devil's advocate. Pretty sure its just an exhibition game. Hilton would probably have more fans, but it'd still be half empty.

That's why I said we aren't great but I don't think I've ever been to a MBB game in Hilton where it wasn't at least half full.

A Hawkeye poster stating the obvious...
"He's making one last visit to a game in CHA and one in Hilton. If he's truly still undecided... it's ISU. The difference in atmosphere between the two arenas is undeniable."

Link?

This is the most anticipated battle between us and Iowa that I can remember. What's strange, to me at least, is that there's really no smoke coming from either side as to where he's leaning. I mean, we have people posting that they have sources indicating that he's either coming here or going to Iowa, but not even the national guys know anything. It's crazy. And Jeffery Epstein didn't kill himself. Ya know?

I hope he commits here but he is far from a program changer. He got a high ranking early in high school and it has slowly declined. He's 7 foot and plays in 3A ball in Iowa and puts up 13-10. I see him as a slightly higher than Condit level prospect. With that said I just don't want to listen to the Hawkeye fans if he does go there.

I think XF has solid upside...like most big men coming into P5 ball, he will take a good year to get into the groove he needs to be in to be effective at this level.

Competition 3A isnt horrible but isn’t Chicago either. He’s got soft hands and a good looking stroke for a 7 footer..if he can add strength and quickness along with an inside/out game he could be a very good big man in couple years
