Iowa offered Braden Huff on July 25, 2021.
He is AAU teammates with SG Jaden Schutt.
Gonzaga offered Braden yesterday.
For a 0 Star, he sure is getting a lot of attention.

Thanks for this update, but literally ZERO reason to post further about him if he's getting Zags level offers now, he won't be a realistic target for Iowa.Iowa offered Braden Huff on July 25, 2021.

“I really love the way Iowa plays,” 4 Star Jaxon Kohler said. “They play a lot of inside-out ball, that fits my play style perfectly.”
In case you missed it, this is a really good story. As you will read, Iowa has been in contact with him for months.
He plans to visit in the fall.

His game is very similar to Garza's. Kohler is probably a little more athletic though.
Iowa offered Aidan Shaw almost 2 years ago, on Oct 25, 2019.
He visited Iowa on June 22-23, 2021.
He had an impressive weekend offensively & defensively.
He had 30 points in the championship game.

Note that Aidan Shaw & Omaha Biliew will be teammates this upcoming season.
Package deal?
In all seriousness, by next year there is a good chance high school seniors will be draft eligible again. If the NBA players don't approve, then I think Omaha plays in the G League for at least $500,000 and then enters the NBA Draft the following year.

@Hawksfinal4 , Jaxon appears to be about 3 inches shorter than Luka. Rivals has Jaxon listed at 6'8". Not sure if that is accurate or not.
Might be something to watch regarding Shaw. MJ Rice, 5 star SF announces tomorrow. I don't exactly know Kansas' needs, but with what they already have committed, one would imagine adding Rice would make Shaw a very low priority for them.

Marquise “M.J.” Rice, a 6-foot-5, 225-pound small forward from Prolific Prep in Napa, Calif., has pegged Tuesday as the day he will announce his college decision. Rice is expected to first share the news with Jason Jordan of SI Now on social media around 11 a.m. Although he has not put out a...m.kusports.com
Good news for Iowa in its quest for SF Aidan Shaw.
SF MJ Rice committed to Kansas today.
Kansas now has two SF's who have committed for 2022.
Does Kansas really need a THIRD SF in Aidan Shaw?
Here are Kansas' current 2022 commits:
That’d be interesting. According to this Mizzou guy, Shaw didn’t visit Arkansas like he planned to.
Would love to see Shaw and Nickel join Bowen and then add Dix. That'd be my dream class at this point.
How about rounding out the class with 3 Star SG Josh Dix & 4 Star Center Jaxon Kohler, who will both be officially visiting Sep 3?
And, as I mentioned above, with all of these SF's committing to Aidan Shaw's final schools, the odds get better for Iowa in landing him.
???
Fran is NEVER going to get all top 100 recruits. Of the players currently still linked to Iowa, what list is better than Shaw, Nickel, Dix????
Can’t add those 3 plus Kohler, and Schutt. Somebody gets left out, unless both Patrick and Connor pay their own way, hmmmmm

Where are the scholarships coming from? Or is this the Patrick/Conner option?
That said, I’m all for doing a little over signing. It would be a shame to say no to so much talent.
You have to think that Fran is selling Nickel and Shaw on playing different positions. With Iowa’s existing youth, I think that Fran will take two of Shaw, Nickel, Schutt, and Dix (if they want to commit, obviously), and then Kohler would be a take regardless
edit: actually I suppose you could play Shaw at the 4, Nickel at the 3, Dix/Schutt at the 2. With Bowen in the fold, that’s a helluva lineup
@oldgoldhawk,
Something went haywire in your quote/reply.
You asked where the scholarships would be coming from if we suddenly had more than 3 prospects interested in committing. I don't think Fran would over sign but with Keegan being projected as a 2022 1st Round NBA Draft pick & with the annual losses to the transfer portal, who knows what Fran is thinking.
I think the first thing to worry about is getting a SG & a big, which gets us to the 13 scholarships, and then go from there.
I think Dix is our likely SG, but Jaden Schutt is still a possibility.
As I stated above, Aidan Shaw committing looks more & more promising as other SF's commit to his final schools.
Getting 4 Star Center Jaxon Kohler to come visit when Josh DIx is also visiting is big, imo. In that story I linked above, he was looking forward to visiting during a football game weekend & he knew how cool game days were.
I don't think taking Patrick or Conner off scholarship is an option, but again, who knows. If Dix, Schutt, Shaw, Kohler and Nickel all want to commit to Iowa, that's a good problem to have.
Maybe it's semantics BUT, that would be one of (if not the) highest rated class that Fran has landed? I know that the Gessel and Woody class was really good, but the one identified as a "dream class" would rate pretty well
Nickel #96
Kohler #95
Shaw #56
Dix not yet rated by Rivals....but I think fairly highly rated in other services.
Shaw is listed as a 3 star but seems drastically under rated.
Edit: Also notable is the Nickel has a UNC offer and Shaw/Kohler with Kansas offers.
Schutt....MSU/Duke etc.

Conner is already a senior
I know you "winked" but the percent of "packaged deals" that actually come to pass are incredibly low, yet it gets thrown around regularly, almost as much as "pipeline".Note that Aidan Shaw & Omaha Biliew will be teammates this upcoming season.

Man, this is just more proof of how lazy and lousy a recruiter Fran is.
In addition, many services have PG Dasonte Bowen a 4 star. For some reason Rivals has him as a 3 star.
Yes, Connor is scheduled to be done in March, 2022.
But remember, 2020-2021 was considered a "free year" by the NCAA, So, anyone currently scheduled to graduate between 2022 (with the exceptions of JBo and Ash) and 2024 could potentially play/graduate a year later than CURRENTLY expected.
As of now, this is what is expected:
2022-2023 Roster (11 on Scholarship; 2 scholarships available):
FRESHMEN: 1 player
6'3" PG Dasonte Bowen
SOPHOMORES: 2 players
6'7" F Payton Sandfort
6'11" C Riley Mulvey
JUNIORS: 6 players
6'11" C Josh Ogundele
6'4" G Tony Perkins
6'2" G Ahron Ulis
6'8" F Keegan Murray
6'8" F Kris Murray
6'9" SF Patrick McCaffery
SENIORS: 2 players
5'10" PG Joe Toussaint
6'9" SF Filip Rebraca (this includes the the covid-19 free year that all 2020-2021 athletes were given)
Notable Walk on players:
SOPHOMORE: 2 players
Luc Laketa
Carter Kingsbury
yeah, I probably should have winked 3 times after I typed "package deal" because I don't see Omaha playing one minute of college basketball.
Fix is probably pretty good, but I’m still hoping for Nickel. He’s a difference maker and will be a lot of fun to watch.How about rounding out the class with 3 Star SG Josh Dix & 4 Star Center Jaxon Kohler, who will both be officially visiting Sep 3?
And, as I mentioned above, with all of these SF's committing to Aidan Shaw's final schools, the odds get better for Iowa in landing him.
Nice FREE story from @TomKakert.
As you will read, Jaxon has a lot of good things to say about Fran and the program.

With just 2 scholarships remaining, I think we end this class with one shooting guard & one big.
When it comes to shooting guards:
Josh Dix is the likely commit
Jaden Schutt is still in the mix
Take your pick amongst the bigs:
Tyler Nickel
Aidan Shaw
Jaxon Kohler
We can't say yes to all 5. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

You would think Dix would be included in a "package" deal
If Josh had a Tyler Nickel for ever joke he got about his last name he'd be a very rich man
