Very excited about his commitment, honest question how is the 24th ranked point guard in the nation a 3 star recruit. What does it take to be a 4 star?

Tamin is a FLOOR GENERAL. The type of lead guard that players want to play with. Having a stud like him to anchor the 2022 class will be AMAZING

Just wait until the AAU season really gets going and Tamin BLOWS up for D1 Minnesota. There are going to be A LOT of coaches wishing they stuck with Tamin after his injury. Keep in mind that he was rehabbing a knee, learning a new football offense (New head coach at Ames) as the QB and playing in multiple AAU tournaments in the past year. He's now 100% focusing on basketball where I expect him to return to his former 4-star status in no-time. His biggest weakness is consistent shooting from 3.

It's also a pretty sweet deal that Eli King will be paying basketball with Tamin all summer as his 2 guard. Seeing Tamin decked out in Iowa State swag. I think they'll have a few talks this summer about playing together in college
Let’s keep the payments on the dl(see your last paragraph)

This commitment feels special. Reading why he chose Iowa State gave me goosebumps. "I'm going to go as hard as I can and do the best that I can". Lets freaking go! We haven't had that kind of passion and 100% buy-in since Georges and Naz. Have a feeling he is going to go down as one of the best to ever wear the jersey.

Great pick up! I will be glad when the trend of talking about exciting news being tied to referencing your erections is over. I am sure it is just a first sign of being “old,” but it is just plain weird and I personally see it as evidence of low intelligence. Carry on.
Especially when it so often comes from 30-50 year old guys referencing an 18 year old kid.
Man, real boner killers.

Tinsley & Horton
Morris and Thomas came in the same year, and are now playing in the same league....
Kane and Morris

Thought about Tinsley and Horton, but KH seems a little different type of guard. Same with Thomas, when considering him paired with Morris.
Kane and Monte similar in terms of both being take charge PGs who were comfortable off the ball.

The 2 initial comparisons, excellent ball handlers, distributers, shooters, and playmakers. And similar size. Hope TH & TL evoke comparisons to any of these duos.
