Fran, with Koehler likely announcing for MSU, do you believe we’re done for ‘22 and looking to ‘23 or does Fran have one or two prospects for this class he’s high on that could commit?
I think its possible Fran will offer Luke Hunger and if he does, Hunger more than likely will officially visit. There is not much talk on the remaining bigs who Iowa has offered but still undecided.
The 4 Undecided who Iowa has Offered:
Braden Huff (Offered July 25, 2021)
PF, 6'9", 200, Glen Ellyn, IL
Reed Bailey (Offered May 8, 2021)
PF, 6'10", 205, Wolfeboro, NH
Plays at same High School as 2022 PG Dasonte Bowen
--COMMITTED to Davidson on 8/4/2021 but then DEcommitted
Zion Cruz (Offered June 23, 2020)
SG, 6'3", 165, Mouth of Wilson , VA
Prince Aligbe (Offered April 5, 2019)
SF, 6'5", 185, Minneapolis, MN

Think of Luka Garza but smaller and probably not as hard a worker as nobody is
I edited the post above.
There are now just 4 undecided who Iowa has offered.
On Sep 14, Dominick Barlow signed a million-dollar deal with Overtime Elite.
On a side note, last weekend, it appears Jaxon really got sucked into the so called family atmosphere that exists at Michigan State.
Magic Johnson, Dramond Green and other well known alumni were in town, obviously making an impression on these teenage prospects.
AND don't forget. The former walk on who now runs a mortgage company is paying EVERY men's basketball player and football player $6,000 per year.
I have a good feeling he's going to make the right decision but passing up on the cash is a tough call. Is Iowa planning anything to compete with the promise of cash? Just curious.
I guess we will just have to kick Michigan States ass just like we did last year. Go Hawks
Someone mentioned this earlier, but Izzo seems to be slipping when it comes to recruiting. A lot of big name prospects have turned him down.
Before today, he had only 1 commitment for the 2022 class.
MSU has 1 other post on scholarship and has immediate PT..... Iowa has 2 bigs that are young and will have a year of PT under their belts this season.... it was very clear that was a HUGE selling point to Kohler.
What a joke. I want to say 6000 dollars buys you a lot more than I expected. Sour grapes. I can't stand Izzo and his dirty program.
And rape and beating up of women cover ups.
And I just got trolled by a MSU fan on another thread. Must be proud of there dirty program. I can't wait to beat this scum team next year.
Now he just made a racial comment. Nice fans to go with their dirty program. I'm one of the last of the fox tribe although my mother is German. Not a fan of MSU even more now.
only the MSU AD faced consequences; for some reason they protect Izzo
Nobody wants to play in the post since the NBA made post players meaningless.
Since we only had 1 scholarship remaining, I would have rather had either Aiden Shaw or Tyler Nickel. I can understand losing Nickel to UNC but Shaw to Missouri?
Losing Jaxon to another B1G school sucks, especially when Izzo only offered on Sep 1.
Nevertheless, Bowen and Dix is a great class. And Mulvey was going to be part of this class, too, until he decided to reclassify to 2021.

I'd love to get Shaw. I think he'd fit into what Fran is doing with what I think he plans for the team.
Nah, Ash will be a super super senior worthy of that scholarship.
Seriously though, it'll go to Hunger and if not we'll hear teasings about the portal all year long, and all these wonderful options after the season.... but none of those will materialize, and the scholarship will be banked.
Maybe he'll have a change of heart
Otherwise, the 4 Known Options are:
1. Luke Hunger, who Iowa has not offered yet
These Players Have Offers:
2. Braden Huff (Offered July 25, 2021)
PF, 6'9", 200, Glen Ellyn, IL
3. Reed Bailey (Offered May 8, 2021)
PF, 6'10", 205, Wolfeboro, NH

4. Prince Aligbe (Offered April 5, 2019)
SF, 6'5", 185, Minneapolis, MN
I admit I don't know much about recruiting, but I have to wonder why no services have ranked Hunger. Is it just because he's Canadian? Did he not partake in any competition this past summer? I am also a little put off by his less than impressive list of offers so far. I could be wrong and he might be the center of the future for us, but I would rather pass on him and see if we can still attract one of McCaffery's other highly ranked recruits. If not, just eat the scholarship and save until later.

I played D1 Basketball in the 70’s and recruiting has changed immensely since then. My daughter was a heavily recruited athlete also. One possibility for the recruiting services to be behind in evaluating is because of Covid. A lot of the exposure tournaments were canceled or rescheduled. It has thrown a monkey wrench into the evaluation process. Even some of these kids seasons have been cut short. We are just starting to get back to holding some of the major AAU tournaments. It has put recruiting back about a year and a half. Throw in the transfer portal and today’s recruiting is a whole new ball game.
He's from Montreal Canada but is playing high school ball in the United States.
It was not until recently that Josh Dix went from not being rated to a 3 star rating.
If things stay as they are, we would have 3 scholarships available for 2023.

Thanks for the breakdown. Seeing it laid out like this helps the perspective.
Reed Bailey has a pretty good offer list from what I can tell. He also really hit a growth spurt in the last year. Went from 6' 7" 180 lbs to 6' 10" to 205 lbs. More of a stretch 4 than a true post player from the little I've seen of him.
I'm still quite intrigued by Luke Hunger. There seems to be a toughness from him; likes to mix it up inside around the basket. His dad played at Providence.
