Agreed. Fred has been getting bigger guards and now here is a fellow 6-1. Is this now the juco recruiting season?

Profile lists Medford at 6'1". Assume he's more of a combo than true point, but I have no clue. If Baylor is talking to him, say what you will, he's probably good to really good.

a speedy athletic player who can shoot who's playing for the best juco in iowa? yeah, i'm confused why hoiberg is showing interest too.
we've been a PG-deficient program for the last three years - we've basically had 1, 0, and 1 legit PGs. we're not going to stop recruiting talent at that position unless we have 3 proven PGs on the roster, IMHO.

Some of people think Monte is more of a combo guard than a true PG and we only have two PG's on the roster for next season, if you include Monte as one. The other is a true freshman.
It hurts no one to at least look into the possibility.

Also, if you look at it position by position what we have right now for 14/15 we actually are less deep and younger there (but maybe more talented) than any position:
1 (morris/custer)
2 (Thomas/SDW/Long/Buford)
3 (Nader/Hogue/Thomas)
4 (Hogue/Nader/Niang)
5 (Niang/Gibson/Ejozie)
Considering fred really is recruiting primarily for the next year he may be hedging his bets. A lot can happen injury, transfer etc. or one of these guys doesnt pan out. Maybe he wants to redshirt custer to put some more meat on him. But seems like he cleary is looking at another 1, a 2/3 combo type, and a solid 4. I think a good 4 is most important, but I can see the logic in wanting a 3rd pg for more depth at that position.

Hoiberg obviously really covets guard play and when you are more than happy to run 3 and 4 guard line ups, there isn't much of a problem in stockpiling guards. Especially when you factor in that we seem to have a hard time finding big men to commit.
You always keep your options open, maybe we find out one of the other guards isn't as good as we thought or shocker...someone leaves. can't wait til the last minute to start a relationship in recruiting. I wouldn't read too much into it. jordan Washington at IHCC might get a look (big man), big man at Sioux city East drawing looks as well
Welp, another potential '14 recruit off the board.

I knew I would forget someone. I do we stand a decent shot with Cunningham. Travis is a long shot from everything I've read.
I haven't been in this thread for a week or so but weren't we starting to come back up in Travis' interview?
