I'm not sure why I'm wading back into this but language and meaning are apparently not easily grasped here.
Here's Chad's tweet:
Wow. This is like the Spencer Lee commitment of women's basketball. Congrats to
@LisaBluder
and the Hawkeye staff.
So he's not comparing the two athletes or their previous accomplishments, he's comparing the
importance of the "get." Let me simplify it further:
Is Lee the best, most highly rated, and important recruit that Brands' program has ever gotten? Yes.
Is Clark the best, most highly rated, and important recruit that Bluder's program has ever gotten? Yes.
Thus Clark's commitment to Iowa Women's Basketball is like Lee's commitment to Wrestling.
In the words of Doyle Lonnegan....'ya follow?
