Re: Rashad Vaughn
There are a lot of great prospects in Minnesota right now, but the general thought is that is the exception to have this much. It has been a long time since there was a Travis, Vaughn, Jones class and there isn't another on the horizon. Many blame partly of the downfall of Gopher basketball on the lack of Local talent.
Well we are pursuing 2015 Jarvis Johnson a four start recruit and Alex Illikainen who has a ton of offers pretty hard.
We have offered 2016 recruit Amir Coffey as well.
In the last 10 years MN has had quite a few good players, they average around 4 or 5 D1 players and every once in while they have had some loaded classes (this year Vaughn, Travis, Jones), 2009 (Royce White, Rodney Williams, Trent Lockett) .
It is an exception to have 3 top 50 players in a class but Iowa State could easily pick one player a year from Minnesota.
