And really, Darks and Money's playmaking has not lived up to the hype (yet). Really, I don't think there is any position that you can say that we don't need big upgrades at, just slightly higher priorities.
Standard's a Cyclone!

Don't count on him ever getting on campus as a Cyclone...grades aren't there to get into school. I wish him luck at some juco though.
Sounds like a future feature back in the making. Welcome aboard Rob! Very excited to see you become the gold Standard at ISU!
I'm very excited with this pickup. He is a game-breaker and is the type of players I love seeing brought into the program. If I'm not mistaken he goes to a private school so they'll put the screws to him, I'm not worried about him qualifying. But guys, you can't be that thick-headed to believe that we actually beat out the nubbies for this guy(well head to head). Anybody who follows recruiting in the slightest knows that nebraska is using their family connection and standing pat until it comes through with aaron green.
This point indicates to me that he isn't as big of a concern as everyone thinks. The fact he set back his announcement also tells me something went down in this period of time.
Yeah, it's pretty funny to watch all of the people beat their chests about this get, like it proves that all is well with the job that this staff has done so far recruiting.
The problem is that these are the same types of kids that have not ever shown up on campus.
The positive is that this is the type of kid that we have to recruit here. And, as you say, IF he is eligible, it's a great signing.
I wonder how many people remember these same types of commits under Mac, and how he was signing 30 + kids, and he would have 20-23 actually show up. This reeks of that.
Hopefully he gets eligible, and appreciates the loyalty this staff has shown to him, and he comes to Iowa State.
Yes, Beau. I forgot about him. My guess is there will be more. I don't know or haven't heard anything but it happens everywhere. My guess is that we will have between 9-12 left when all is said and done.
ANd how big is the downside if he doesn't come? I am comfortable with what we have at RB for next year wihtout him. If this were a QB, or CB or LB or something I would worry but this is an ultra talented kid that would be icing. Like I said earlier, the fact that his announcement was delayed means something happened IMO.
well I do live amongst them, but I'm not a nub. also I should mention I was right. Nebraska picked up Aaron green, and now has shut down their runningback recruiting. We should all :notworthy: that they wont be coming after standard.
