Hopefully he meant Tyler's offensive film.
The NCAA has gotta start allowing prospects to visit campuses; this is getting ridiculous
1 scholly off the board @Franisdaman, one remaining. What’re we thinking, is Fran going to count on another departure following this season or next and take a SG/SF(Nickel or Kramer) plus accept a commitment from a Dasonte Bowen? I kind of feel like we need a PG in this class with Toussaint being a senior and Ulis a junior when they would be coming in... but I really want to get Nickel
I think we have a real good shot at Dasonte Bowen (6'3", 170), the PG out of Worcester, MA.
For 2021, right now we only have Payton coming in, so we have one scholarship carrying over to use for 2022; it would ice to land Tyler Nickel, for sure
Unless we bring in a grad transfer next year... though I’m starting to wonder if Fran isn’t going to just roll with Nunge and Big O at the 5, while mixing in some small ball with Keegan depending on the matchup
yeah, the transfer portal makes things interesting when it comes to roster management, that's for sure
Everybody rags on Josh, but we have not seen much of him to make any judgments, imo. It was interesting when he was brought in to defend Cochburn; Kofi tried to drive on Josh, but Kofi could not move the big fella; Josh held his ground.
This kid entered the transfer portal today. 👀

I tell ya, this transfer portal thingy has made things Ka-Ray-Zee
We currently have 2 scholarships left for the 2022 class.
Reminder: in Men's basketball, you can have 13 on scholarship.
ONE THING TO MONITOR: due to covid-19, 2020-2021 was considered a "free year" by the NCAA. So, anyone listed below as JUNIORS or SENIORS could potentially play/graduate a year later than CURRENTLY expected.
CURRENT 2022-2023 ROSTER (11 on Scholarship):
FRESHMEN: 1 player
6'11" C Riley Mulvey (***)
SOPHOMORES: 1 player
6'7" F Payton Sandfort (***)
JUNIORS: 6 players
6'11" C Josh Ogundele (***)
6'4" G Tony Perkins (***)
6'2" G Ahron Ulis (***)
6'8" F Keegan Murray (Not Rated)
6'8" F Kris Murray (Not Rated)
6'9" SF Patrick McCaffery (****); on May 29, 2020, Patrick received approval for a medical hardship after playing in just 2 games in the 2019-2020 season, giving him 4 years of college eligibility (through 2024).
SENIORS: 3 players
6'4" SG CJ Fredrick (***); in early Nov, 2018, was decided CJ would redshirt the 2018-2019 season
5'10" PG Joe Toussaint (***)
6'11" F Jack Nunge (***); in his freshman year (2017-2018) he played in 33 games and averaged 5.7 ppg; in early Nov, 2018, was decided Jack would redshirt the 2018-2019 season. In the 2019-2020 season, he appeared in only 6 games before tearing his ACL in a game vs Cal Poly. On May 12, 2020, Jack was granted another year of eligibility (medical hardship waiver).
As I stated above, for the 2022-2023 roster, there are 2 open scholarships.
Also, as I stated in the posts above, I think we have a real good shot at Dasonte Bowen (6'3", 170), the PG out of Worcester, MA.
It would be nice to land Tyler Nickel, for sure. Iowa has been working him hard.
Yes, Mulvey is a 2022 prospect.
It will be interesting to see what happens with the transfer portal. As I stated above, right now this is where things stand for 2022-2023:

This kid: Kyle Filipowski (Offered June 18)
PF, 6'9", 215, Wilbraham, MA
Seems like he has had great things to say about Fran.....does getting Mulvey actually have an effect on taking him?

If they don't get Tyler Nickel, I would imagine Kyle is in the running
who would you like to see Iowa use the final 2 scholarships on?
With the 2 schollies currently available, who do you prefer?
For me, its the PG Dasonte Bowen & the forward Tyler Nickel.
And, as you can see in the orig post, we have offered several Minnesota kids.
Trejuan Holloman
PG, 6'2", St. Paul, MN
Prince Aligbe
SF, 6'5", 185, Minneapolis, MN
Camden Heide
SF, 6'5", 175, Wayzata, MN
Eli King (Offered June 23)
PG, 6'1", 160, Caledonia, MN
Ahjany Lee (Offered August 3)
PF, 6'8", 195 Byron, MN
D. Watson-Saulsberry (Offered Sep 29) SF, 6'7", 190, Minneapolis, MN |
I think Kyle might be the most talented and provide us with a big/tall PF that is athletic...and then probably Bowen as he appears to be the most dynamic PG that we have been seriously involved with (not counting Suggs), but I find that Eli King to be a very intriguing prospect as well. I would love to see us establish inroads to the Minnesota talent.
Iowa has offered 6 kids from the state of Minnesota. It is crazy how much talent is in that state.
As you might have seen in this thread last October, Tarris Reed (C, 6'8", 220, St Louis, MO) was offered Oct 14. As many noted back then, its cool to see that Tyler Cook connection.
We have been discussing PG Dasonte Bowen, too, ever since he was offered; he would be a nice pick up, imo.
A lot of things can happen but here are where things currently stand:
CURRENT 2022-2023 ROSTER (11 on Scholarship):

Looks like a good player. Any mutual interest?This kid entered the transfer portal today. 👀
Sources: UMass C Mitchell expected to transfer
UMass Minutemen center and All-Atlantic 10 performer Tre Mitchell is expected to tansfer, sources tell ESPN.
As I have pointed out above, we have 2 scholarships available
we are definitely in the running for Tyler Nickel
As you know, Will Shaver (C, 6'10, 245, Birmingham, AL) was a recent offer (offered Dec 21) & he seemed happy about it.
I think we need the PG Dasonte Bowen

Pending mass exodus within the conference too at Penn State
John Harrar would be the type Iowa should be looking for as a grad transfer with Nunge's health question and Ogundele's development/questions about extended minutes. You know what he brings. He'll stay in the post the whole time and provide a quality minutes.

6'6" SG Joe Wieskamp (****)
6'5" G/F Connor McCaffery (****; announced on Apr 28, 2017 that he will play baseball in the Spring of 2018 and redshirt in basketball in the fall of 2017; ended up, however, playing in 4 games in Dec 2017 as a true freshman, mostly because of the Christian Williams departure. However, after missing two games due to a sprained ankle, eight contests due to mononucleosis, and 19 games after undergoing a tonsillectomy in December, 2017, he was granted a hardship waiver on March 26, 2018, where he will have 4 years of basketball eligibility remaining; on April 11, 2018, Connor was put on scholarship.
Harrar would really fill the gap next year in the middle. Guy is tough and a heck of a rebounder.
We have one scholarship open for next season. Why wouldn't we take Harrar? He's a big body and a banger inside.
John Harrar Has Entered The Transfer Portal
The Senior will return to school next season, it just won’t be at Penn State.
www.blackshoediaries.com
As of this morning, it sounds like MSU, Rutgers, and Maryland were the only teams to reach out from the Big Ten. I’m not convinced that Fran wants to hit the portal
I watched Waukee/Johnston Championship game and Steven Kramer is a really athletic and quick 6'6'' wing player.

it will be interesting to see what/if anything Fran does w/ the ONE scholarship that is currently available for next season
I say Robbins from Minnesota.
his performance at the State Tournament has opened a lot of D1 coaches eyes
good for him!
makes you wonder if he would transfer 2 yrs in a row
Only one scholarship for a graduate transfer assuming the McCaffery boys stay on scholarship, right? It seems like there would be flexibility there to add more than one.
And possibly sit a year since he was granted immediate eligibility for this year. Can’t see it happening again.
That was kinda funny. I'm not sure Garza ever made Kofi give up the ball.
