Why did Sloan go to SDSU anyway? Please don't tell me we didn't offer. He went to Alburnett. He's 10x better than Shapiro.

I'm 99% sure you are right about that

Someone should seriously be fired for that. Sloan is a beast. These are the kinds of things that tick me off to no end. Lose talent like that from your own state.

IIRC Sloan was a late bloomer in HS. Maybe he had some injuries too. I think he was a below the radar guy that didn't get much interest from ISU, UNI or Iowa (or other top programs). Shapiro was a much higher rated recruit at the time. Just goes to show you how big a jump someone can make from HS to college.
