New Story ****Cooper Koch commits to Iowa****

[Lumas Etima]

Alford had a lot of misses. Wasn’t there a Hispanic big guy named Gomez or something like that? And who was the 6’7” kid from Indiana that Alford offered as a sophomore in high school and barely played a minute?

I believe Marcelo Gomes was a Davis recruit. (As was Antonio Ramos). Neither amounted to much.

The 6-7 kid from Indiana was JR Angle. Finished his career under Lick.

14 commitments who never played a minute at Iowa? I'm trying to name them all. Off the top of my head I can think of:

• Jamie Vanderbecken
• Josh Rhodes
• Beas Hamga
• Marcellus Sommerville
• Nathan Skinner
• Dairese Gary
• That kid who went to a fake high school

Who am I missing? I feel like there might be at least one or two more from the last few years when Alford/Neal really started getting into the shady side of recruiting.

There was certainly a bunch, but I'm skeptical that there were actually 14.

That kid who went to a fake high school

I love that line. Too focused on football right now but I'll get back on it.

He played.

Barely. Didn’t he transfer midseason? Very odd.

I believe Walker was a Tom Davis recruit.

Dewitz averaged over 25 mpg his last 2 years at OR State, averaging over 12 pts and 5 rbs per game. His leaving was just another example of the mess that was that period of Iowa basketball.
